Where is Friday Night Lights? It it just going to air on DirecTv or what? NBC will be fucking stupid if they don't air it. It is TEN MILLION times better that any of the rest of that shit they have in Primetime. Dear Jesus help their poor souls.

Where is heroes? I know it has a shorter season this year, but its not even mentioned on this list. It better be coming back for the first half of the midseason.

You'll get some episodes of Heroes in January, but its season ends on February 1. I've updated the story.

The network that Jay Leno sank with his stank.

I'll watch both L&Os, celebrity apprentice and I might try Parenthood (although the main reason I was interested in this show was Maura Tierney and without her its not nearly as appealing to me.

Jesus this lineup is depressing! FNL should be in the lineup instead of being relugated to the summer. Hell the show should be on USA where it would get good ratings but all this is a moot pt. Parenthood is the only show I am looking forward to. Everything on thurs minus the office is must see for me

Luke,

What happened to Day One?  Isn't that a mid-season mini-series?

Otherwise, this is a crappy line up.  No wonder NBC is in 4th place.

Jay Leno can't be blamed for this. Jeff Zucker is the network slayer.

Day One is in the land of misfit shows along with 100 Questions, Persons Unknown and a handful of episodes of Heroes... Isn't NBC AWESOME?

Chuck and Law and Order are the only two hubby and I are looking forward to. This line up of shows is so discouraging. Jay Leno should have gone to do comedy specials and a show about his favorite hobby cars not a regular show his material has gotten worse beyond boring and dull.  Conan is far funnier and has more balance and variety in his late night show.Chuck really rocks too bad it is on a network that does not appreciate it. Chuck is one of the really entertaining shows out there does not dumb down the audience.

Chuck is the only show I watch on NBC. it's funny, imaginative and original, quite refreshing.
