About Time!

NBC announced today that it's bringing back the one sitcom worth watching. "Scrubs" will return to the airwaves on Nov. 30. Additionally, "30 Rock" will move with it, so that NBC will be putting all its comedies on one night, in one block. "Earl" and "The Office" will stay where they are, to be followed by "Scrubs" and "30 Rock." The Thursday edition of "Deal or No Deal" is done.

This is actually a pretty smart move on NBC's part. Particularly since "Grey's" has started sucking more than a vacuum cleaner, it's not a bad idea to have a really good alternative around for people to tune into. Now, let's see if they can build the audience for "Friday Nights Lights" some more. (Remember, they're airing it at 10 this Monday to see if it's a better companion for "Heroes" than the why-isn't-this-cancelled-already "Studio 60?") SO WATCH IT!

I SO AGREE re: GREY'S. That show has completely gone off my "must see" list.
Smart move on NBC's part...rebuilding that Thursday night comedy lineup. Saw "30 Rock" last week and chuckled more than a few times. It's no "Arrested Development" but it's not bad...not bad at all.
Speaking of decent new comedies - I've started catching "Help me, Help you" after "Dancing with the Stars" on Tuesday nights. I like it. And I was prepared to hate it. Ted Danson and Jane Kaczmarek (sp?) are really good together.
