Remember when CBS used to be the network that appealed to a much older demographic? And then all of a sudden, this huge crop of cool shows appeared, giving the other networks a run for their money for the first time in many years. Since the early days of CSI and Survivor, CBS has been the most watched network on television.

Heading into the 2008-09 season, CBS is sticking to that winning primetime formula by making very few changes to the schedule. Five series have been canceled, but three intriguing new dramas are on tap for the upcoming season and they certainly sound promising.

Going into their third season as a network, the CW is making a bold statement by creating a primetime lineup that is sure to lure that ideal demographic away from the big guys. Spoiled rich kids living in fabulous zip codes is the name of the game this fall on the CW!

Before the pilot episode was even written, the 90210 spinoff began generating an incredible amount of buzz. Could this be the one show that finally propels the CW into the same Nielsen orbit as the others? Will the series live up to all the hype? As a huge fan of the original 90210, I can't wait to bring the zip back into my living room this fall!

For many years, ABC struggled to find that perfect lineup of shows that would give the other networks a run for their money. Four years ago, ABC finally struck gold with new series such as Desperate Housewives, Lost and Grey's Anatomy. Each season thereafter, another crop of new series arrived. Confident that a successful primetime schedule is now intact, ABC is putting it all on the line by adding only one new drama series and canceling five others.

Each year during upfront time, there is always at least one drama/dramedy I dearly love that is in danger of cancellation. The object of my obsession affection this year has been the CW's Reaper. This fantastic series has suffered from low ratings the entire season, making it an easy target for the cancellation pool.

I can't help but think that if only those Nielsen gods would just bestow that magical box in my home, I could become the Clark Kent/Buffy Summers/Sydney Bristow of all those underdog shows constantly in danger of cancellation.

In the case of Reaper, I am pleased to report that the CW has renewed the series! The show is scheduled to return midseason for 13 episodes. Did the Devil make them do it? Who cares -- I'm going to get my weekly dose of "Sock" next season. Life is good in TV land.
