TV Shows post-strike..

[jmatt]

An article based some information gotten from TV Guide about how the rest of what's left of this year's TV season will go...

A selection of the list:

24
Expected to return this fall or January ‘09.

Bones
Four pre-strike episodes left. Unclear whether additional episodes will be produced for this season.

CSI
Expected to shoot 4 to 7 new episodes to air in April/May. (This seems to be the expectation about what most shows will be doing)

Friday Night Lights
No new episodes expected for this season. Future TBD.

House
Expected to shoot 4 to 6 new episodes to air in April/May.

Lost
Six pre-strike episodes remain. Six additional episodes could air this season.

Numbers
Expected to shoot 5 to 7 new episodes, only three of which may air this season.

The Office
Expected to shoot 5 to 10 new episodes to air in April/May.

The only thing on that list I care about is the Office, and I'm happy it'll be back this season.

So this confuses me about Lost....they've completed 8 episodes and started airing them, but they had previously announced that each of the remaining 3 seasons would be 16 episodes each. Your link states a possible 6 additional episodes for this season, which only adds up to 14. I'm assuming that they would film 8 additional episodes, but either way, by the time they could get them to air, it would be summer time. Surely ABC wouldn't waste episodes of Lost by airing them in the summer, the ratings are normally much lower. So the question is, will there be enough time to cram in the remainder of season 4 by the end of May? If not, will we get a shortened 4th season?

As long as Boston Legal ,Entourage, and Californication come back, I'll be fine.
