'Better With You' Series Premiere -- A Very Short Engagement (VIDEO)
by Oliver Miller, posted Sep 23rd 2010 1:00AM
The new sitcom 'Better With You' (Wed., 8:30PM ET on ABC) follows the lives of several very different couples. Maddie and Ben (Jennifer Finnigan and Josh Cooke) have been dating for nine years, but have not yet taken the "next step," and tied the knot. Meanwhile, Maddie's younger sister Mia (Joanna Garcia) has decided to marry Casey (Jake Lacy) -- a guy who she's only known for seven weeks. And on the premiere episode, Mia is forced to reveal the reason for the very rushed engagement.[Warning: Spoiler alert.]
While having dinner with their parents, Mia is compelled to spill the beans during an argument with her sister. "Call me old-fashioned," Maddie says, "but I think it's appropriate to apply a little thought before making huge life choices." Then, Maddie starts protesting Mia's decision. "Why in the world does she have to get married right now?!"
"Because she's pregnant!" replies her boyfriend Ben. Oh, okay. That makes sense then.
The O.C. moves to later timeslot

Perhaps it's a move that will open up the 8 o'clock hour for American Idol during late February
and early March, since FOX is airing the results shows for the semi-finals on Thursday nights. FOX is moving The
O.C. to the 9 o'clock hour, from the 8 o'clock slot its held since the first season. That time slot is now open,
thanks to the cancellation of Reunion. The move happens on January 12, when new episodes of The O.C.
return. FOX's announcement also gives a hint of what's to come in the second half of this season on The
O.C. Ryan, Summer, and Seth launch a plan to get Marissa back into Harbor in time for graduation. One of the
upcoming episodes, called "The Safe Harbor", is a tribute to an episode of Beverly Hills 90210 where
the gang fought to get Donna to graduate. Plus, there's that whole college thing that still needs to be figured out.
Where will they all go so we can continue to watch The O.C.?Sliding into The O.C.'s old time slot are back-to-back episodes of That 70s Show. At least, until Idol takes over.
