The NBC primetime lineup, which will include frakkin’ Knight Rider for the love of all things good and holy, has been announced for next season and summer. The caveat of course is that this is all done in “pencil” and can change on a whim.
However, if you are looking for when your favorite NBC shows will be on, and what new shows are coming down the pike, check out the schedule below, thanks to the Ausiello Report.
The most baffling part of all of it is that Saturday Night Live is showing on Thursday nights in the fall???

Do we need an ‘Office’ spin-off already? Of course we can now give last rites to Journeyman and only hope it gets picked up on cable…not likely. NBC sucks!

SNL Thursday Night Live will be like a half hour weekend update leading up to the presidential election from what I can gather.
Wow! If this is supposed to be good publicity for NBC, the actual line-ups crush that possibility. Thank God for the Office and 30 Rock. NBC has little else to tempt the American viewer.
When are networks going to learn that spin offs rarely work. I hope they do not take any cast members off the regular show in fear it will damage the quality/chemistry of the current office cast.
The Office Spin-off…really? What a joke. It will probably end up being cast with all those people who were lost in the merger…
