NBC’s 2009-2010 Schedule: What It Means For You
Tuesday, May 19th, 2009
Posted by Diesel Micky DolenzNBC has officially announced their programming schedule for the 2009-2010 television season. They’re hyping their decision to give Jay Leno the 10 p.m. slot five days a week, the 2010 Winter Olympics and “shared time periods” as allowing them to go essentially rerun-free year-round. Chuck has been added to the previously-announced set of renewed shows, and it will share a time slot with Heroes. How will that work? We’ll get new Heroes episodes this fall in a straight run until the Winter Olympics. Following the Olympics, Chuck will run in Heroes‘ slot (8-9 p.m., Mondays). One new show of possible interest to the sci-fi crowd is Day One, a suspiciously Jericho-sounding show about a community trying to survive the aftermath of a “global event that devastates the world’s infrastructure.” Day One debuts in March in the post-Chuck 9-10 p.m., Monday time slot.
Disappearing from NBC’s schedule completely (a.k.a. cancelled) are Kings, Knight Rider and Medium.

I am thrilled Chuck was renewed and excited for Day One. I will keep watching Heroes but doubt it will be much good.

Yay, Chuck is coming back!
