With the fall schedules of the five broadcast networks announced, there’s much to be anticipated. Each network has released detailed previews of a handful of its new shows. Based on trailers and series description, here are this fall’s least promising pilots.

Most Lamentable Cancellations Happy Endings This decision is most disappointing since ABC is now getting into the habit of abandoning shows with devoted fan bases which then get picked up by cable networks. Cougar Town moved to TBS last year, and USA may save this comedy. It used to be that ABC was in  [ Read More ]
