Good Morning. It’s Tuesday, August 14, 2007, and this is your first early morning briefing.
ABC made a slight programming change with NASCAR in Primetime, as the documentary series will premiere tomorrow night as planned but now at 10p. The program will air on four consecutive Wednesdays through September 12. Both Knights of Prosperity and Nine returned briefly last Wednesday, and will be gone again this Wednesday. The new line up for the night begins with two episodes of According to Jim, followed at 9p with Primetime, and finishing with the premiere of NASCAR in Primetime at 10p. As for the still unaired episodes of Nine and Knights … who knows?, tho online is most likely.
Tonight’s Premieres:
Oxygen: Tori & Dean: Inn Love at 10p

Get in with the “Inn Crowd” tonight on Oxygen.
~ MORE GOOD STUFF ~
MyNetwork TV will launch a new series on September 4th called Jail, from Langley Prods., a gritty reality series about real life in jail. If this sounds just a little bit familiar, it may be because the same show, different title, different music, is currently airing on Court TV where it’s known as Inside American Jail. According to Variety, this is your basic repurposing deal, with a little twist in that the show content on MyNetwork TV is identical to the original on Court TV, it just has a different wrapper. The MyNetwork TV version uses hip-hop and urban-themed packaging. The Court TV version uses rock instrumental music, and the packaging is more along the lines of the network’s other original shows.
SCI FI Channel gave off more than a flicker when the new original series Flash Gordon premiered last Friday night (9p). The debut episode delivered 1.2 million A25-54 viewers, 973,000 A18-49 viewers and 2.1 million total viewers. The series airs each Friday night at 9p.
Current TV will launch a music blog for television, The Daily Fix on Wednesday which will serve up daily global music news and promote emerging artists. The 90-second blogs will be posted six times daily using MP3s from music blog aggregators, user-generated video clips and cell phone camera stills. The concept was created by producers Douglas Caballero and Alex Simmons.
ION Television’s recent four-hour miniseries Killer Wave on August 5 was buoyed with more than 1 million viewers tuning in, as well as delivering 362,000 household impressions among A25-54. Killer Wave is the first of twelve original productions slated to air under RHI Movie Weekend on ION.
Get your pooch ready as National Geographic opens season four of its series Dog Whisperer featuring author and dog rehabilitator, Cesar Millan beginning September 7 at 8p. Thirty-five all-new episodes follow Cesar as he travels the country helping dogs and their owners.
“There she is” on TLC as the Miss America Organization completed a multi-year pact with the network, making it the new home of the Miss America Pageant starting with the next live telecast on January 26, 2008. TLC will have the telecast rights for the pageant through 2010. Prior to the pageant, TLC will also air a reality series focusing on the preparation involved for the contestants.
As suspected, HBO‘s John from Cincinnati, which just had its season finale, will not return for a second go.
MSNBC scheduled a new three-part series Dead Men Talking that takes its cameras into real-life death scene investigations. Episode one on August 21 at 11p will expand on Dateline’s August 20 broadcast about the same team of investigators. The series, which is narrated by NBC News’ Victoria Corderi, will present two more episodes on August 28 and September 4.
Showtime Networks Inc. inked two new licensing deals surrounding the show The L Word. Showtime, along with its licensing agency, 360ep made a deal with Aquarius through NMR Distribution to create a line of posters, postcards and a 2008 16-month wall calendar. Furthermore, Gamaka Ltd., a division of Z7 Worldwide Group will release the show on DVD as well as board and trivia games.
