  1. Oh thank God ABC finally moved GA to the Thursday 8:00PM timeslot. Been saying they should for years.


    And I'm good with SHIELD's new timeslot too.

  2. Can't believe they kept Once and evenge at Sundays. So stupid decisions. Unbelievable. But let them have it.

    Surprised by that Grys's move, and Murder just at 10pm. I would've squeezed it between Scandal and Grey's. The 9pm slot is pretty fresh.

    ReplyDelete
  3. How can Galavant serve as a bridge b/w OUAT half seasons when it's a comedy?

    ReplyDelete
  4. They put Grey's in the death slot! Holy crap. That will be very interesting. I'll be keeping an eye on that. Bold move, ABC.

    ReplyDelete
  5. I'm glad they moved Shield to 9. I'm assuming Agent Carter is a mid-season show?

    ReplyDelete
  6. Well, in fairness, some of OUAT's creative choices are hilariously bad. There's plenty of comedy to be had there.

    ReplyDelete
  7. Odyssey didnt get Fall slot, Hieroglyph didnt get Fall slot & now The Whispers

    didnt get Fall slot. Hopefully CBS and CW wont disappoint me :/

  8. Thurdays become "The Reign of Shonda"

    ReplyDelete
  9. Good move for them although I think scandal is going to start declining.

    ReplyDelete
  10. The fairy tale connection?

    ReplyDelete
  11. I think Babar means that there's still half an hour to fill with another program.

  12. Last year The Goldbergs became the first ABC show I've watched regularly in years, but I wonder if this year will be the year I find an ABC drama I can enjoy enough to watch on a weekly basis. Last year looked terrible to me and it played out as I expected, but maybe American Crime, Forever, or Secrets and Lies can pull me in...


    At least by their synopsis they do not seem like the typical ABC shows.

    ReplyDelete
  13. They'll either double up on episodes or put something ahead of it in the 8-8:30pm slot.

  14. Pablo Troncoso13 May 2014 at 17:17

    You sure? I thought it was a one hour comedy ala Pushing Daisies

    ReplyDelete
  15. GALAVANT will air original episodes at 8 and, apparently, reruns at 8:30 [not 100% clear, but it'll be the full hour] per Joe Adadlian

  16. Pablo Troncoso13 May 2014 at 17:22

    This seems like a solid schedule for ABC. Sundays shows need to regain momentum, but if they do it could be a big winner.
    Called Grey's and Scandal's move, about time ABC! Now, will The Blacklist withstand Scandal?

    ReplyDelete
  17. Interesting. I thought they'd reverse that. I figured starting with week 2 they'd show a new episode at 8:30 preceded by the previous week's episode at 8pm.

    ReplyDelete
  18. That does make more sense but having a repeat as a lead-in for a new show?

    ReplyDelete
  19. Ugh idk how I feel bout ABC moving Greys to the 8 time slot..if any show could break the curse its Greys Anatomy!!!! #TrulyShondaNightNow

    ReplyDelete
  20. It's a coin toss. Is it any better than showing a repeat out of broadcast order right after a new episode? I honestly don't know. It's the 'death slot' so they should consider all their options.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Thursday = Shonda's Time ! :D
    I'm good about the AoS slot. Great move ABC !

    ReplyDelete
  22. I like this schedule. Once stays where it is, Shield will hopefully do better at 9PM, they finally moved Grey..
    Forever interests me and I hope Shield gives it a strong enough lead-in.

    ReplyDelete
  23. By airing two episodes every week like NBC did with Bent for example?

    ReplyDelete
  24. I honestly don't know why it took ABC this long to move GA to 8pm.Premiering a new show there obviously didn't work out If that have moved it earlier, they could have potentially avoided that slot becoming a problem and GA could have also served as a decent lead-in for the shows that found their demise in the deathslot.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Hope AoS at 9 will help with the ratings, glad they are indeed using Agent Carter as a bridge show.

    ReplyDelete
  26. I think it'll be interesting to see how Bones and Grey's do against each other again, and against TNF.

    Why'd they move Scandal to 9?! Welp there go the sexy Olitz scenes....UGHHHHHHHHHHHHH DO BETTER ABC

    ReplyDelete
  28. I agree with that. If successful, this could also go a long way toward dispelling the stigma associated with that particular time slot.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Bent was being burned off, right?
