My comments:
Friday Nights Lights on Fridays? There's a novel idea. But is it a good one. Were they thinking a Friday at 10 slot would have no expectations making this okay? Friday has far fewer viewers than any other night except Saturday. Will FNL be able to increase their audience? Let's hope NBC promotes the show all summer and new viewers find this amazing show.

Meanwhile, Lipstick Jungle will not premiere until after the football season. Is Sunday at 10 a good slot for this show? Not if ABC keeps Brothers & Sisters on at the same time.
