"Ugly Betty" seems to be most people's pick...

Given the number of good shows already on the air, and the relativly small number of new shows this year, I'm not sure if there will be any real standout hits this season.

Yeah

There are so many huge hits, that even some of those are getting lower ratings, its very competetive at the moment.

It'll be interesting to see how The Nine fares this season. Its being billed as the best new show of the season, and that cushy post-Lost time slot certainly doesnt hurt.

Didn't help Invasion, but then again that show wasn't very good. Only good thing about it is now the alien sheriff guy is on Prison Break.



And after last night's episode of Heroes, I'm sure it'll be the next big thing. That was an awesome ending. Almost as good as Charlie's "Guys, where are we?" at the end of episode 2 of LOST.

Yea, Ive heard that Heroes has had some really great cliffhanger endings, and from what Ive read there are more to come.

Still havent seen an episode yet, though. I tried watching the premiere online and my comp froze up and I forgot to watch it last night.

I just finished watching Friday Night Lights. And as much as I loved Studio 60, this may have been the best new show I've seen so far, though I have high hopes for The Nine.

My bet will be The Nine this year. I was hoping for Studio 60, but that's getting killed in the ratings.

I think Heroes is gonna be the big hit. I can't see The Nine making it. People will get confused by it. It sounds like that other JJ Abrams series called Six Degrees.

I'm also thinking Shark might be a breakout show, too. But, I don't know how the ratings are.

Shark is actually doing fairly well. Its won the 10pm hour these past two Thursdays, beating ER by the slightest of margins.


Oh, and I wouldnt say that Studio 60 is getting killed, either. Yes, the numbers have gone down slightly since the premiere, but that's to be expected. It also isnt going to beat CSI Miami, so second place each week isnt all that bad. Like I said earlier, as long as they at least stay competitive with CSI Miami (as well as Boston Legal) than they should be fine.

Although its not official just yet, it looks like this show may be the first cancellation of the new season.

Pretty good cast, but I think it's just that everybody's doing the interlocking dramas, and people can follow only so many.

Exactly. It seems that every other show on TV is serialized and follows either the Lost or 24 model. Problem is, none of them have been able to pull it off successfully thus far.
