So this means 13 episodes of both, or just a half-season of each. B.S.

NBC sucks.

Appears as though NBC is bound and determined to keep itself in fourth place.

Sure makes one hope that the Leno experiment will fail. What will NBC do if Leno does not deliver?

They can only hope for 4th. CW is actually ahead of them now.

Seriously, if you are going to keep each series at 13 episodes, send Chuck to USA and Heroes to Sci-Fi. They'd probably do better in basic cable than they would timesharing on monday nights.

So, if Leno fails at 10pm, will we see last season reruns or 4-5 nights of dateline NBC?

What is up with giving the biggest loser 2 hours on Tuesday? Can they really keep that going for 2 hours at a time? Of course it probably costs 25% of normal programming...
