I notice NBC is running Friday Night Lights in the 10 pm slot tonight...

Many series are in repeats this week in the run-up to the November
sweeps, anyway. "60" was scheduled for a repeat and made this switch a
week or two ago.

It's a desperate attempt to try to get the Heroes fans to give FNL a
try. The younger fans of Heroes (the ones who just tune in to watch
superheroes with superpowers) might like FNL.

Word is the show is on its last legs. Cast members are saying the show
is done.

Citations, please? So far, the only hint about cancellation I've
seen posted here has been one article from Fox News.

I can't see it happening. Awards season starts in a month and "60" is
primed to dominate. Imagine how NBC, already a desperate 4th place
network, is going to look when a show they already cancelled is
getting a half-dozen awards on a weekly basis.

At the very least NBC will try it in a different slot first.


IMO, good. The show was so pretentious and unfunny, it was unbearable.
Not one likeable character and that rapid "you speak, I quickly respond
without thinking, you do the same and this goes on for a couple
minutes" was so amazingly annoying and unrealistic. I would like to see
a show on the SNL behind the scenes premise, but this show wasn't it.
