I don't normally watch clip shows but, since it's been so long since I saw Heroes, I'll make an exception for this one.

Nice going, NBC. Lipstick Junko is still around, but Journeyman isn't. Good call.

Lipstick Junko? Is that the best you can do? How about Dipstick Jungle?

What about Law & Order? They had a very good season this year!

Law & Order is being held back until midseason again. It's still possible that it could take over if any of NBC's new dramas fail to perform or if Lipstick Jungle fails to improve.
30 Rock's premiere is so late because SNL primetime specials will be airing in its slot over October.

Lipstick Jungle, but not Journeyman. What the frak is going on??? I loved journeyman, and it was one of the best sci fi on the air, alongside Battlestar G., Heroes. But Lipstick Jungle is soooo boring. Pretty soon, none of us will invest in these series anymore because the networks do not have the common courtesy of ending a series. They hang the fans out to dry, not caring that we are vested in these characters and storylines. Their killing their own ratings.

I have to agree, lipstick jungle over journeyman, I still don't think they take into count all the dvr watching, cause any show I really like I dvr to watch without commercials, interuptions etc.

October 30th for 30 Rock???! What the frak!!! That's over 5 months from now! Why would they possibly hold the show off the air until then? I know it's better than midseason, but still. This sucks.
This is one situation where a clip show is a good thing, for Heroes return. It's been so long since the show has been on the air.
