ONE SHUDDERS TO THINK...:

ABC adds 'Opportunity Knocks' and 'Life on Mars' ( Jonathan Storm, 5/15/08, Philadelphia Inquirer)

In what may be an all-time record, ABC announced yesterday that it would introduce only two new shows onto its fall lineup.

Producer David E. Kelley hit the exacta, landing the fantasy/detective series Life on Mars in the prime Thursdays-at-10 slot, following Grey's Anatomy, and returning Boston Legal to the lineup (Mondays at 10 p.m.).

...what an utter hash they're likely to make of a nearly perfect tv series. Why not just rebroadcast the original?
