Fall 2006 American & Canadian schedule
2005 <– –> 2007
The 2006-07 season had one of the best titled shows ever, Let’s Rob Mick Jagger. The title was changed to The Knights Of Prosperity and the show lasted 13 episodes. There was the usual early broadcast in Canada of a few shows, such as Standoff and 6o being on a day early and the oc being on a couple of hours early thanks to CTV having 4 hit hour dramas on Thursdays. This is what opened up the 7pm time slot to at least the occasional show as part of prime time rather than have it be syndicated Hollywood entertainment programming.
A Channel lost much of its content to cancellation and other networks in Canada and as a result showed a lot of movies this season. Over at SunTV it was time to experiment a little. As part of the fallout from the merger of The WB and UPN Fox took their now unaffiliated owned-&-operated stations and used them as the foundation of the new My Network TV network. In Its first season MNT went with the most unconventional of programming – telanovelas in prime time. SunTV showed the MNT Telanovelas but did so in the afternoon in competition with the popular networks’ ‘soaps’ (aka daytime dramas) with recap episodes in prime time on Fridays. SunTV’s daytime schedule also included King Of Kensington, Beachcombers, Danger Bay, Chico & The Man, Here’s Lucy, The Forest Rangers, A Family Affair, and Leave It To Beaver. If you loved classic tv then SunTV is what you were wanting to watch. Not bad for an indie station.
JJ Abrams again had a few shows on tv. Only LOST survived. For 2011-12 he will have 3 series in the fall schedule. This is the year that Law & Order moved from Wednesday at 10pm to Friday at 10pm. While not the beginning of the demise of the programme’s content it was the early signs that NBC was losing interest in their most celebrated show.
Other short-lived shows include Smith on CBS (3 eps), 3 lbs on CBS (3 eps), the winner on FOX (6 eps), Drive on FOX (4 eps on tv + 2 online), Andy Barker, P.I. on NBC (6 eps), and David E. Kelley’s The Wedding Bells on FOX (5 eps). The Black Donnellys, which takes its name from a piece of dark Canadian history but is set in contemporary USA, was originally on NBC (6 episodes) with the third episode deemed unacceptable for broadcast television but offered online and the remaining 7 episodes of the show were offered online. The series was shown in full on HD Net and released on DVD.
