Just to add, there is two slight things that might interest MITM fans.

1) "The Return of Jezebel James" is the same production company of MITM, Regency Television.

2) "Rules for Starting Over" is going to be a comedy shot with a single camera, just how MITM was filmed. And it is produced by the Farrelly Brothers.


Also, two things that caught my eye:

1) "The Sarah Connor Chronicles" is a series based on the lives of the character from the Terminator films, Sarah Connor, and her 15-year-old son John, as they try to survive between events happening during the time between Terminator 2: Judgment Day and Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines.

2) "Back To You" is a comedy staring Kelsey Grammer (“Frasier,” “Cheers”) and Patricia Heaton, (“Everybody Loves Raymond”) as the lead anchors of a local TV news team in Pittsburgh. Kelsey's character is a self-centered womanizer, and Patricia's character is an uptight know-it-all, but on screen they seem to have perfect chemistry, but unfortunately not so perfect off-screen.

I might download the Terminator spin-off, but with Malcolm in the Middle and Arrested Development long gone, I have no reason to... well, download anything on Fox. Except the occasional Family Guy episode.

Thanks for posting, Alex! :thumbup1: FOX has a tendency to cancel my favorite shows before they can build a following. "Vanished" and "Reunion" are two that fall into that category.

However, on their new schedule, the two you singled out are also the two I'm most interested in. I saw three clips of "Back to You" from the pilot and it's very funny. I can't help but still think of Kelsey Grammer as Frasier Crane, but that doesn't matter, because he's just so funny. I think (hope) this will be a successful show.

And "The Sarah Connor Chronicles" looks to be an interesting show, combining action and drama. The only thing I'm concerned with is if too much time has passed since the movies; Is there still enough interest in this franchise?

"Back to You" sounds real interesting if for no other reason than I'm interested in TV production. I'm going to have to check that one out for sure. The problem is I'm almost never available the same time each week to watch a show. i always made time for MITM, but most other shows just don't get watched unless the network puts them online so I can stream them on demand when I have time.

Well, at least FOX streams many of their shows on MySpace, and you do not even need to log in or sign up to watch them, as far as I know. I am sure a show like that one will be on there.

One thing i don't like, is they dont put House to watch on MySpace.
