NBC has issued a press release with the premiere dates for all their fall shows. This way, you know when to set your DVR.The full press release includes descriptions for each of the shows. New shows are in all caps.
Heroes will be the first scripted show to return with a two-hour premiere on September 22nd. The first new scripted show will be Knight Rider on September 24th (although I don't know if you could count it as new since they already broadcast the two-hour pilot).

I like the show "Life" a lot.(Check that one out Mike M.) And "Chuck" is a fun show and then of course "Heroes".

Does anyone know the episode order for 30 Rock next season? Why is it starting over a month after The Office? I guess this might have something to do with hour long Office episodes.

Heroes, Office, 30 Rock, and Chuck are all I watch on NBC. I just hope they aren't axed like Las Vegas was. Crusoe looks interesting but I am not watching it until it gets a second season renewal. I am no longer investing any time in new NBC shows.

Only the Office and 30 Rock do it for me on NBC. Earl is also ok.
I just found out that Jamie Hector ("Marlo" on The Wire) will be on Heroes for a few episodes. Maybe I'll tune in to see that.

My favorite shows are on other networks when they're not getting cancelled. I watch 5 shows on nbc but their not my favorites. And I too am not watching any new shows on any network until they make it to year 3. Then I'll rent the first 2 seasons and catch up. I ain't wasting any more of my time on shows they're just gonna shit-can because of the out-dated Nielsen system.

All I watch is Office and Heroes. (Heroes only if I have nothing better to do.) 30 Rock annoys me, Chuck is too melodramatic, and SVU jumps the shark at least once every episode.

Given how lousy NBC has been the last few years, by dropping Journeyman (I mean, come ON!) and their mangling of Scrubs, I've pretty much decided to stop watching anything on NBC.
Which is too bad, because I thought Chuck was chuckle-some.

They are giving Crusoe the suicide Friday slot?
I mean, it will have the softest competition in Wife Swap, Ghost Whisperer and 5th Grader, but still, it's a Friday night slot, that's where shows go to die.
It will need some massive ad time during the Olympics to get any sort of viewership for the series premier.

I still think it's a shame they moved "Life" to Friday nights. I really hope it survives as I believe it has a lot of potential. Here's to hoping another program gets canceled and Life takes over their slot. (I feel really mean saying that)...

NBC used to be my favorite network. Now the only show I watch on NBC is moving to ABC.
