NBC to have an upfront after all

Jeff ZuckerRemember all that talk about NBC not having an upfront this year, and maybe not have them ever again? Never mind.

Maybe it was just strike-induced crazy talk, but NBC has changed its mind about having an upfront this year, and the other networks are going to have one too. It sounds like ABC, CBS, and FOX are going to have the regular upfronts in New York City that they have every year, while NBC hasn't really disclosed what they are going to do. It might be a stripped-down upfront or it could be the same big presentation they give every spring. The network will probably make an annoucement later this week.

This much is known: NBC's upfront will take place on May 12, while ABC's will be on May 13 at Lincoln Center. CBS will hold theirs on May 14 at Carnegie Hall. FOX's upfront will be held on May 15 at The City Center. The CW's will also be held on the 15th, at Madison Square Garden. TV Squad, of course, will have full coverage of all the new network goodies each day that week.

I think it's just that Zucker is an idiot. Is there honestly anyone here who doesn't think that, and who knows who Zucker is?

Wow, what a surprise! Network nitwits going back to doing things the way they've done for fifty years. The idiots will never change and will always be out of touch with reality.
