I just read on CNN that Joey has been pulled until March:

So, in other words, NBC is going to be canning a lot of sitcoms come May. That might actually work in the favor of Scrubs.

Scrubs isn't exactly a ratings giant. It was barely hanging in there last season, often losing to shows like According to Jim.

God I hate America! When shows like Scrubs do worse than the crap-filled borefest that is According to Jim...

I'm still upset Fox canceled Kitchen Confidential.

Scrubs from what I read at Eonline was pulled so they could film the entire season right away, and because they couldn't start production right away because of cast members having other projects.

No -- that was exactly what I'm saying. NBC is getting rid of W&G, and it looks bad for Joey. Four Kings also looks terrible based on its marketing, though that might just be an anomaly. What I'm saying is that if these three are terrible and Scrubs does okay, it might result in Scrubs staying around. That would suprise me because I have been writing it off since I heard it wouldn't be on in the fall.

I'm really rather annoyed that AD gets so much attention for supposedly being wronged by Fox when it is apparent that KC was wronged far more seriously. They didn't even give it a chance.

Joey and Chandler's apartment is tiny (Joey's bedroom is just slightly bigger than a closet), and Chandler has a nice salary.

Ross is subletting his from Ugly Naked Guy.

Amazingly, Will & Grace actually did worse Thursday night than Joey's lowest-rated new episode ever, and Four Kings also did very poorly. In other words, NBC may have been better off with a Joey/Will & Grace lineup than a Will & Grace/Four Kings lineup. Only time will tell...
