Cynopsis

03/04/08

Good Morning.  It’s Tuesday, March 4, 2008, and this is your first early morning briefing.

The CW picked up six series for the 2008-2009 season: America’s Next Top Model for cycles 11 and 12; the freshman drama Gossip Girl; the sixth season of One Tree Hill; the eighth season of Smallville; the fourth season of Everybody Hates Chris; and Supernatural – season #4.  On the heels of that good news came some not-so-good news. The CW will restructure some of its programming departments, eliminating its comedy department, and merging its drama and current programming departments.  Alternative programming will remain unchanged. The restructure results in layoffs of approx 25-30 people.

Tonight’s Premieres:
FOX: New Amsterdam at 9p
WE tv: Women Behind Bars at 9p
Discovery Health: Deliver Me at 10p
Travel Channel: Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern at 10p
Bravo: The Real Housewives of New York City at 11p

Tonight’s Finale:
Bravo: The Millionaire Matchmaker at 10p

The premiere of Lifetime’s new reality competition series Your Mama Don’t Dance last Friday (9p) attracted 1.6 million total viewers and a 1.15 HH rating. 

Celebrity stylist Peter Ishkhans will star in a new series on The Style Network called Peter Perfect. Debuting April 19 at 9p, Peter Perfect will follow Peter as he transforms small independent businesses from floor to ceiling into streamlined, aesthetically-pleasing operations. The series is produced by 44 Blue Productions in association with The Style Network.

BET Networks with debut two new series on March 18 – Black Poker Stars Invitational and Iron Ring, airing them back to back beginning at 1030p.  Black Poker Stars Invitation features celebrity trash-talking poker players in Hollywood.  Iron Ring takes a punch at celeb-managed mixed martial arts fighting competitions.

A new weekly lifestyle series, Moment of Luxury will debut on public television stations nationwide April 5 at 7p (check local listings). The 13-part, half-hour series, presented by WLIW/New York and filmed in hi-def, will be hosted by designer Bill Stubbs who will travel the world looking for luxurious items for any American budget. Wow, how do I get a job like that?

Season three of MOJO HD’s Three Sheets with host and comedian Zane Lamprey opens April 10 at 9p. Over 14 episodes, Zane will travel to Rio de Janeiro, Chile, Barcelona, Scotland and more visiting pubs in every destination.

After learning that one of its chefs had garnished his resume as nicely as some of his dinner plates, the Food Network made the quick decision to not renew chef Robert Irvine‘s show at the end of the current season.  Dinner: Impossible will air all of the remaining episodes of the season, and the network may then chose to re-think its immediate decision about a new season.  Irvine said on his extensive resume that among those he had cooked for are the British Royal Family and a number of US Presidents. 

MSG Media will rebrand FSN New York (FSNY) as MSG Plus starting next Monday at 7p with the live broadcast of the Roger Federer/Pete Sampras exhibition tennis match from Madison Square Garden. MSG Plus is the television home of the NHL teams New Jersey Devils and New York Islanders in addition to live sports and original programming from Fox Sports Net which includes national college football and basketball, the shows Best Damn Sports Show and Sports Science and various live local sports events.

NBC Universal made a long-term carriage deal with Comcast to launch mun2 in April on the majority of its digital cable television line-ups. Telemundo will also be added to the Comcast systems in Seattle and Detroit next month. The deal additionally included a provision for Comcast to offer various programs from both networks on its On Demand service.

ESPN hired Creative Artists Agency (CAA), a talent and sports agency, to represent the new ESPN Films division and identify creative and commercial opportunities that complement the feature film initiative. ESPN Films, part of the ESPN Content Development, will present scripted and documentary film projects for television and theatrical release.
