Primetime Pilot Panic: 2 ABC Renewals? And There’s Something About Ashton…

By NIKKI FINKE, Editor in Chief | Saturday May 10, 2008 @ 8:50pm PDTTags: ABC Pilots, Ashton Kutcher, Networks, TV

I hear already-on-the-air one-hour Eli Stone and half-hour Miss/Guided, exec produced by Ashton Kutcher, are “really in the mix” at ABC. The network also picked up Ashton’s family oriented game show, Opportunity Knocks.

Editor-in-Chief Nikki Finke - tip her here.

Please tell us if Boston Legal is going to stay on and if David E Kelly will still be attached. This must remain on the air

Opportunity Knocks, isn’t a good gameshow unless you unless you shut down everything else so that ABC is the only thing on the air. It also helps if you have a terrorist like Sideshow Bob demanding that all of TV should be shut down so he doesn’t destroy the world. You Simpson fans should know what I am talking about.

This makes me happy about Miss Guided, I really hope it gets picked up. I loved that show, it was cute and quirky….

Judy Greer is the funniest. Bring back Miss/Guided!

Please tell us that WOMENS MURDER CLUB is getting renewed. It has stronger ratings than some of the shows ABC has already renewed.

PLEASE DO NOT tell us that Women’s Murder Club would EVER be renewed over Boston Legal.

TV NEEDS Boston Legal. That’s all there is to it.

Boston Legal is still on the air?

Who wants to watch a bunch of lawyers?

Eli Stone and Boston Legal both MUST be renewed. They are the best lawyer shows EVER!
