<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">This past week is the one I have looked forward to every
year since I was 10 years old - the unveiling of the broadcast networks' Fall season schedules.</span></span><br>
<br><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">
Today it seems people spend a lot time complaining about how quickly shows are
cancelled or that Nielsen ratings suck or assume that TV networks make decisions for
no reason at all – and they are doing this at a time when they have almost infinite choice of content.</span></span><br>
<br><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">
For me, this is the the time of year when the natural cycles of TV birth and
death intersect. While the "Big 4" impact on the overall media landscape decreases each year
because of the abundance of content on cable and other platforms no other time
of year brings forth so many new programs </span></span></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">at once. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">It also means the end of other shows - some short lived and others well past
their due. </span><br>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
<br><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">The new Fall season still significantly impacts my daily viewing habits. While
many never watch a show the day it airs anymore, or even within the season that
it airs, I still watch many broadcast shows "same day", partially for work
purposes and partially for my own pleasure. Seeing what the networks do
to improve their schedules - what new shows they pick and where they put them,
what existing shows are cancelled and where they move old ones
-- is the puzzle I am still enthralled by nearly 35 years later. </span></span><br><br><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">
Here are some initial observations about the 14/15 Fall schedules.</span></span><br>
</span></div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><u style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Many of the bigger events & more anticipated series have been saved for 2015.
</u><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">Aquarius/Odyssey/AD on NBC, Battle Creek on CBS, Agent Carter/American
Crime/Secrets and Lies on ABC, Wayward Pines/Hieroglyph/Empire on Fox are not
on the Fall schedules, instead they are being held for calendar year
2015. While part of this is no doubt due to the fact that not everything
can be squeezed into Oct-Dec it also appears networks want to save their most prestigious programming from high </span></span><span style="line-height: 18.399999618530273px;">auspices</span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"> for a less cluttered time of year.</span></span><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">
</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Until recently Fall was the place to put the shiniest of new objects,
now it may be the place to put more cannon fodder.</span></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><u>The procedural franchise is not quite dead</u>. Last year it seemed the broadcast networks tried to follow what is working on cable and and move away from procedural, stand-alone dramas into serialized story-telling -- even CBS which is the most traditional of the big four with Hostages. This year it seems there is a bit of a shift back as CBS has a new NCIS and CSI + the new show Stalker, ABC has Forever which in the trailer at least seems like a procedural with a supernatural bent (the lead character cannot die), NBC has a 3rd season renewal for Chicago PD and 16th season for SVU, and Fox's Bones returns for a 10th year. </span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><u style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">There are no scripted programming trends</u><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">: In past season it seemed like there was often an easily </span></span><span style="line-height: 18.399999618530273px;">discernible highlight from that season's development cycle ("Comedy is Dead', "Comedy is Back", "Aliens Are In", "Reality is The New King of TV")</span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">. Instead, this year there are pockets of new programming - diverse comedies, superheroes, 13-episode serialized stories, and relationship-based single-camera comedies.</span></span></span></li>
</ul>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 18.399999618530273px;">Here are the new shows I am most looking forward to, in no particular order. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 18.399999618530273px;"><br></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 18.399999618530273px;"><u>Fall</u></span></span></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 18.399999618530273px;">Gotham (Fox) - While I am not a fan of The Dark Knight movie trilogy I still like Batman and think this version of his back story looks good.</span></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 18.399999618530273px;">CSI Cyber (CBS)- I was a huge Medium fan so I am happy for Patricia Arquette's return to TV (she was miscast on Boardwalk Empire I felt) and I will watch anything CSI.</span></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 18.399999618530273px;">NCIS New Orleans (CBS): I have watched every episode of NCIS and NCIS LA - and not just because I work at USA - so of course I will watch, even if I am not a Bakula-phile.</span></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 18.399999618530273px;">Madame Secretary (CBS) - West Wing meets Political Animals and the trailer did a good job making it feel like the show will be fast-paced - even it airs in Murder She Wrote's old time slot.</span></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 18.399999618530273px;">Black-ish (ABC) - Modern Family needs a good pairing and the trailer for this delivered the right tone to indicate ABC may finally have the right partner.</span></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 18.399999618530273px;">The Flash (CW) - I have yet to get into a CW show (even Arrow, despite originlly looking-forward to it) but The Flash trailer was well done and he was one of my favorite comic-book heroes as a child.</span></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 18.399999618530273px;">Stalker (CBS) - Despite getting a little tired of Dylan McDermott I have to say but the premise of this CBS cop drama (an LAPD unit that hunts stalkers) sounds fresh and pairing it with Criminal Minds makes a lot of sense.</span></span></li>
</ul>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">From a TV<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>nerd
& TV viewer perspective 13/14 is the most encouraging network
Fall season I have seen in several years.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I think each network has some promising programs and smart
scheduling moves.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My initial guess would be
that CBS is the network most likely to grow year over year; NBC has the best
use of a major star in Michael J Fox; ABC has the likelihood to have the
biggest hit with Agents OF S.H.I.E.L.D
(although I am wondering if can live up to the high expectations post-pilot) and
Fox’s male targeted dramas + comedies look strong.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Here are some thoughts night by night.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>First, a few caveats:</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 0.25in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-list: l4 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -0.25in;">

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">While CW has carved out a targeted audience
niche for itself the net's overall 18-49 ratings potential is not large enough to make
insightful comments here so I am only commenting on CBS, ABC, NBC, Fox. </span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 0.25in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-list: l4 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -0.25in;">

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">I have started to watch some pilots but not
all – many of my comments will be based on trailers and early thoughts on the
shows.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 0.25in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-list: l4 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -0.25in;">

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">My goal below is <u>not</u> to firmly predict
who will win what and whether or not each show will work or not but rather
general observations.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Fall schedules since 1980 (when I was 10) and a frequent TV viewer – not as an executive
at a network that competes with (and buys shows off of) broadcast channels<o:p></o:p></span></div>

of ABC’s <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">AGENTS of S.H.I.E.L.D</b> at
8pm. I expected it to go Sunday at 9pm to help revitalize the night although perhaps
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">The Walking Dead</b> was a reason to
stay away given the likelihood of shared audience. This will be the biggest
threat <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">NCIS</b> has faced since the
heyday of <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">American Idol</b> and while
the median age of the audiences will differ by 20-30 years I do think NCIS
could see some impact if <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">S.H.I.E.L.D</b>
is as big as its potential. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My concerns
about the <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">S.H.I.E.L.D </b>scheduling are
1) some or many of the young men who might watch the show may not be available
in the 8pm hour 2) using it to lead-in to new comedy<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">The Goldbergs, </b>which I thought was underwhelming based on the trailer,
and then 2 other new programs including <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Lucky
Seven</b> which I think will not last long.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Q @maculae87 Shows like LOCI & FNL were prolonged b/c of splitting costs by cable and network Do you see that happening more in the future?</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A I dont think that business model will necessarily happen more but I think for right shows - which are few & far between - will continute</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A; Good Q as I have been deciding what to do (sorry dont get CLOO) Won't "live-tweet" but plan to share why i chose each ep at times</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A: i cable we get ratings for 56 biggest cities by 8am - then national #s at 4pm ET (they dont always correlate). Ratings come in for every episode but we pay the most attention - as does the press to the first run which is where the biggest audience is</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A: no way to know - if system is flawed than many many have - unlikely any one singled out by flaw </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Q @JenMorrow915: When a show goes into syndication do the first runs episodes tend to get higher ratings?</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A: Sometimes yes we think (& think CBS will agree) our NCIS exposure has helped new eps & back in 90s Law & Order on A&E helped NBC new eps</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
A: Dont work on that side but think lot to do w/ clearing music rights which can be tough, also same ratings may not = same DVD sales</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A: The operators dont have any business without the channels either - ad fees dont cover all and certainly didnt when industry started so it is a two stream system - (not sure why i needed 2 tweets for this)</span></div>

Last year there was a discussion about Friday night and USA and you mentioned that USA didn't air shows that night because it wasn't a good night and shows don't do well. I mentioned Blue Bloods did and you said it was a Fluke. What's changed? Not trying to be critical just confused as to how USA opionion has changed on this night. "<br />
<br />
Here was my response (in multiple tweets):<br />
<br />
"A lot has changed in our own portfolio and the landscape . Blue Bloods looked like a one off but then it held and even grew. Then we saw Gold Rush Alaska and Smackdown thrive. Then we saw Fringe get a big audience from DVR. We also now have 2 new hits, Suits and NR so with 9 shows the puzzle on how we schedule means we have too many shows and cannot fit all Tue-Thu so we relooked at Friday and based on the data over the last 3-4 months found an opportunity especially as we think these shows pair well together. Also would not describe Fairly Legal struggling to survive at all. Audience much bigger than shows like Mad Men, Killing etc. Last year Friday looked dead to us but in this business the only way to stay #1 (or try to) is to always be ready to rethink & take another look about anything - even if your opinion was very firm just a few months ago."<br />
<br />
<br />
I will add here that one of the things Bonnie Hammer - our boss - instilled in the whole team and in me from my first day here was to never assume what you thought worked or didn't work in the past is true today. In fact the Friday night discussion has been the oldest topic of my tenure here. When I first arrived and Monk was on Fridays and Psych was starting we asked if there was oportunity elsewhere but we stayed. Then when the night went downhill and Monk was over we saw an opportunity to move White Collar and eventually Psych. But now with current landscape analysis and a portfolio of shows far bigger than a few years ago and a landscape changing so quickly we saw an opportunity. Who knows, in a year maybe we will sour on Friday again (we could sour on any night with the right combo of data), but for now we are hoping it is the perfect combination of a less competitive slot with existing evidence the right shows can really do well.TEDONTVhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17891033381985691083noreply@blogger.com1
