Fall Daytime TV Preview
Tuesday, August 29, 2006
If you haven't gotten your fill of court shows or talk shows, then this fall is for you. Two new court shows and three new talk shows are starting up in September. New in the court genre, we have CRISTINA'S COURT and JUDGE MARIA LOPEZ. Judge Cristina Perez presided over the Spanish-speaking LA CORTE DE FAMILIA on Telemundo for several years. Now she'll give it a try in English. Controversial Massachusetts judge Maria Lopez presides over her own self-titled Sony show. Lopez was criticized for her courtroom behavior and some of her rulings in Massachusetts. Nevertheless, she's back on the bench for a half-hour show.Fresh off a run on WILL & GRACE Megan Mullally is going to jump into the crowded talk show arena with THE MEGAN MULLALLY SHOW. The show, no surprise, will feature celebrity guests and air mostly on NBC stations. Then, we have the DR. KEITH ABLOW SHOW, airing on many FOX stations. You may know Dr. Keith as the bald-headed therapist from THE TYRA BANKS SHOW. Now, he's got his own talker aimed at helping people. Greg Behrendt (below) also wants to help people. You may know this comedian from his book, "He's Just Not That Into You." THE GREG BEHRENDT SHOW promises to focus on all kinds of relationships.
Other changes: Judge Mablean is OUT on DIVORCE COURT. Judge Lynn Toler is IN. Say goodbye to Richard Karn on THE FAMILY FEUD. He's being replaced by actor/dancer John O'Hurley. By the way, have a look at the huge new set for the Feud: http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=FamilyFeudAll these new shows means we have to say goodbye to some favorites: THE TONY DANZA SHOW, ELIMIDATE, STARTING OVER, and BLIND DATE.
