VOICE CAST: Seth MacFarlane as Stan Smith and Roger, Wendy Schaal as Francine Smith, Rachael MacFarlane as Hayley Smith, Scott Grimes as Steve Smith, Dee Bradley Baker as Klaus

AMERICAN DAD, the animated series that follows die-hard Republican and card-carrying NRA member STAN SMITH (Seth MacFarlane) and his hilariously odd family in Langley Falls, VA, is back to salute a fourth season of laughs. Stan's not-so-smart wife FRANCINE (Wendy Schaal) has an unfaltering loyalty that allows her to turn a blind eye toward Stan's unabashed arrogance. Stan constantly butts heads with his 18-year-old daughter HAYLEY (Rachael MacFarlane), who knows just how to push her father's buttons by being liberal in both her beliefs and in the amount of hippie boyfriends she chooses to date. Hayley's 14-year-old brother is the geeky yet cocky STEVE (Scott Grimes), a kid who seems to be on the constant verge of puberty but can't quite make sense of the opposite sex. The Smith household is rounded out by two rather unconventional members. There's the selfish and sarcastic space alien, ROGER (Seth MacFarlane), who lives in the attic and drinks like it's always happy hour; and KLAUS (Dee Bradley Baker), an attention-starved goldfish with the brain of a German guy whose always willing to vocalize his opinions whether anyone is listening or not. This eccentric family full of radically different personalities is just trying to find a way to love and trust each other during these increasingly unpredictable times. And with a guy like Stan in charge of our national security, it's going to be a hilarious ride. The comedy continues this season when Stan becomes an exotic dancer, Roger decides to have his home planet blow up Earth and Steve and his friends plan a heist at a classmate's bar mitzvah. AMERICAN DAD is a 20th Century Fox Television production. Seth MacFarlane, Mike Barker and Matt Weitzman serve as co-creators and executive producers and Rich Appel, Rick Wiener, Kenny Schwartz and David Zuckerman serve as executive producers.

AMERICAN IDOL

PRODUCTION COMPANIES: FremantleMedia North America, 19 Entertainment

EXECUTIVE PRODUCERS: Nigel Lythgoe, Ken Warwick, Simon Fuller, Cecile Frot-Coutaz

HOST: Ryan Seacrest

JUDGES: Paula Abdul, Simon Cowell, Randy Jackson

Television's No. 1 show returns for its eighth season when AMERICAN IDOL premieres in January 2009. Hosted by Ryan Seacrest, the hit series empowers viewers to discover America's next solo singing superstar by voting for their favorites to win the coveted American Idol title. Every year, thousands of hopefuls from across the nation audition for a shot at stardom and a chance to be the next American Idol. The show's judges Paula Abdul, Simon Cowell and Randy Jackson winnow down the competitors to a select group of semifinalists who sing their hearts out each week for the studio audience and the television viewers. The judges have their say after every performance, but it's the viewing public that determines who advances to the next round of the competition and who goes home. Voting via telephone and text-messaging begins immediately after each performance show, and the results are announced during the following night's broadcast. Season Seven finalists have showcased their talent by preparing selections from the Lennon/McCartney songbook, songs from the year they were born and inspirational tunes. The contestants have also performed the music of Dolly Parton, Mariah Carey, Andrew Lloyd Webber and Neil Diamond. These legendary artists not only shared their expertise with the contestants, they also provided audience members the opportunity to experience a variety of musical styles. Eventually the competition is narrowed down to two finalists who compete for a major recording contract and the American Idol title. Past winners Kelly Clarkson, Ruben Studdard, Fantasia, Carrie Underwood, Taylor Hicks and Jordin Sparks already have risen to the top of the recording industry. Beginning in 2007, AMERICAN IDOL launched IDOL GIVES BACK, a charity special that has raised more than $135 million to fight extreme poverty in the U.S. and around the world. The special, featuring international talent and sports figures, has been honored with the prestigious 2007 Governors Award, the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences' highest accolade. The show has also been recognized by President George W. Bush, HRH Prince Charles and British Prime Minister Gordon Brown. AMERICAN IDOL is created and executive-produced by Simon Fuller, founder and CEO of 19 Entertainment; and executiveproduced by Cecile Frot-Coutaz, CEO, FremantleMedia North America; Nigel Lythgoe, President, 19 Television; and Ken Warwick, Executive Producer, FremantleMedia North America.

AMERICA'S MOST WANTED: AMERICA FIGHTS BACK

PRODUCTION COMPANIES: STF Productions, Inc., 20th Century Fox Television

EXECUTIVE PRODUCER: Lance Heflin

HOST: John Walsh

The groundbreaking series AMERICA'S MOST WANTED: AMERICA FIGHTS BACK returns for a 22nd season of remarkable television and public service. With 1,000 criminal captures to date, AMW has done more than entertain and inform: it has changed the landscape of American law enforcement. Lauded by viewers, critics and law-enforcement organizations nationwide and commended by Presidents Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, this empowering hour has quite literally changed the lives of thousands of victims and perpetrators of crime. Leading the charge is host JOHN WALSH, a nationally recognized advocate of victims' rights and a tireless voice on behalf of missing and exploited children. As a direct result of the extraordinary partnership between AMW and its viewers, AMERICA'S MOST WANTED has helped to capture 1,000 criminals, including 17 from the FBI's Ten Most Wanted list. One of Walsh's proudest achievements: the show has also reunited 43 missing children with their families. Among these triumphs was the miraculous recovery of kidnapped teen Elizabeth Smart, which resulted from AMW viewer tips. In addition, Walsh teamed up with Elizabeth's father, Ed Smart, to support the "Amber Alert" bill, which put a national spotlight on the need for a nationwide missing-child alert. The George W. Bush administration has invited AMW to do shows from the White House and profile wanted terrorists on two occasions. In 2003, Walsh joined President Bush in a Rose Garden ceremony at the White House as the PROTECT Act of 2003, which expanded the use of Amber Alerts, was signed into law. AMW again broadcast from the White House on July 29, 2006, two days after another Rose Garden ceremony at which President Bush signed into law the Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act. Since its inception, AMERICA'S MOST WANTED has been a socially responsible program committed to making our towns and cities safer for all of us. AMERICA'S MOST WANTED: AMERICA FIGHTS BACK is produced by STF Productions, Inc. Lance Heflin is executive producer.

ARE YOU SMARTER THAN A 5th GRADER?

PRODUCTION COMPANIES: Mark Burnett Productions, ZOO Productions

EXECUTIVE PRODUCERS: Mark Burnett, Barry Poznick, John Stevens

HOST: Jeff Foxworthy

Classes resume for the third session of the A+ hit quiz show ARE YOU SMARTER THAN A 5th GRADER?. Acclaimed comedian Jeff Foxworthy is at the head of the class as host of this atypical game show, which measures adults' lack of knowledge as revealed by how much they've forgotten since grammar school. The family-friendly fun continues next season when the show enrolls a new class of 5th graders. On the show, adult contestants find themselves revisiting the classroom, tackling subjects they've already been taught from art to geography and math to social studies. The test questions, derived from actual textbooks used in the 1st through 5th grades, are similar to the following:

1. 1st Grade Social Studies: What was the first name of the first U.S. First Lady?
2. 2nd Grade Science: The chimpanzee's native habitat is on what continent?
3. 3rd Grade English: What is the singular form of the word "lice"?
4. 4th Grade Literature: Who wrote the book "Little House on the Prairie"?
5. 5th Grade Science: What is the most abundant element in the universe?

When the questions prove to be challenging, as they inevitably do, the contestants are not alone; there is a way to "cheat" in this classroom. Adults can get some elementary help by using a "peek," "copy" or "save" from actual 5th grade classmates to determine the correct a-n-s-we- r and graduate toward the top prize of $1 million. Highlights of the sophomore season included celebrities Regis Philbin, Clay Aiken, Kellie Pickler, Tony Hawk, Billy Bush and Miss America Lauren Nelson entering the classroom to be quizzed for charity. Mark Burnett Productions produces ARE YOU SMARTER THAN A 5th GRADER? in association with ZOO Productions. Burnett, Barry Poznick and John Stevens serve as executive producers.

BONES

PRODUCTION COMPANIES: Far Field Productions, Josephson Entertainment, 20th Century Fox Television

EXECUTIVE PRODUCERS: Hart Hanson, Barry Josephson, Stephen Nathan

CREATOR: Hart Hanson

CAST: Emily Deschanel as Dr. Temperance Brennan, David Boreanaz as FBI Special Agent Seeley Booth, TJ Thyne as Dr. Jack Hodgins, Michaela Conlin as Angela Montenegro, Tamara Taylor as Dr. Camille "Cam" Saroyan, John Francis Daley as Dr. Lance Sweets

From executive producers Hart Hanson, Barry Josephson and Stephen Nathan comes the fourth exciting season of BONES, a darkly amusing procedural with humor, heart and character, inspired by real-life forensic anthropologist and novelist Kathy Reichs. DR. TEMPERANCE BRENNAN (Emily Deschanel) is a highly skilled forensic anthropologist who works at the Jeffersonian Institute in Washington, DC, and writes novels as a sideline. When the standard methods of identifying a body are useless when the remains are so badly decomposed, burned or destroyed that CSI gives up law enforcement calls in Brennan for her uncanny ability to read clues left behind in the victim's bones. Most law enforcement can't handle Brennan's intelligence, her drive for the truth, or the way she flings herself headlong into every investigation. SPECIAL AGENT SEELEY BOOTH (David Boreanaz) of the FBI's Homicide Investigations Unit is the exception. A former Army sniper, Booth mistrusts science and scientists the "squints," as he calls them who pore over the physical evidence of a crime. But even he cannot deny that the combination of his people-smarts and Brennan's scientific acumen makes them a formidable team. Aside from Booth, Brennan is most comfortable with her equally brilliant colleagues at the Jeffersonian's Medico-Legal Lab. ANGELA MONTENEGRO (Michaela Conlin), an artist who specializes in reconstructing facial features and crime scenes, is Brennan's earthy and bawdy best friend; "the bug guy," conspiracy theorist DR. JACK HODGINS (TJ Thyne), is an expert on insects, spores and minerals; and DR. CAMILLE "CAM" SAROYAN (Tamara Taylor), the street-smart and centered coroner, must wrangle all the geniuses under her purview. Lending his professional expertise to Brennan and Booth is DR. LANCE SWEETS (John Francis Daley), a brilliant young psychologist who is equally adept at profiling murderers and providing "couples therapy" to Booth and Brennan. Season four of BONES finds Booth and Brennan dealing with changes among the "squints" as well as in their own relationship, and a revolving group of grad students pitch in to help them solve murders. BONES is from Far Field Productions and Josephson Entertainment in association with 20th Century Fox Television. Hart Hanson, Barry Josephson and Stephen Nathan are executive producers.

HOST: Mark L. Walberg

THE MOMENT OF TRUTH, the No. 1 new series of the season, puts participants to the test the lie detector test to reveal whether or not they are telling the truth for a chance to win half a million dollars. On THE MOMENT OF TRUTH, the challenge is simple answer 21 increasingly personal questions honestly, as determined by a polygraph, and win up to $500,000. This is the only game show where participants know both the questions and the answers before they begin to play. Prior to playing, participants are strapped to a lie detector and asked a series of questions by a polygraph expert, who records their answers. At any time, between the polygraph and the televised game, participants can change their answers or walk away from the competition. To win $500,000 participants have to tell the truth and answer questions such as:

Do you think you are better looking than your friends?
Would you say your wife is the most attractive woman you ever dated?
Do you think you are a good person?

Of course, the questions are easier when the stakes are low but as the prize amount increases, they will be challenged to fess up to matters they might normally lie about. The touchier questions could be especially revealing because participants share their answers in front of spouses, relatives and friends, hanging on every word. What deep dark secret will someone divulge for hundreds of thousands of dollars? THE MOMENT OF TRUTH is being produced in more than 35 other countries, including Spain, Brazil, Germany, France, Italy and the United Kingdom. The show is produced by Lighthearted Entertainment, Inc.

HOST: Cat Deeley

JUDGES: Nigel Lythgoe, Mary Murphy

The Emmy-winning summer hit SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE, hosted by Cat Deeley, keeps viewers moving to a different beat as dancers skilled in everything from the "street" styles of Hip-Hop, Krumping and Popping to Ballroom's Salsa, Quickstep and Jive compete to be named the nation's favorite. About to kick off its fourth season, SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE finished Summer 2007 as the No. 1 show in its time period among key demographics. The Season Three champion, Sabra Johnson, was voted America's Favorite Dancer and waltzed off with the cash prize of $250,000. Following the season finale, the Top 10 dancers embarked on a cross-country, 50-city performance tour. In Season Four, producers again will travel across the country in search of dancers who represent the rhythm of America. Those who spark the judges' interest during auditions will be invited to call-backs, where they will work with top choreographers. During the call-back week, the judges choose the Top 20 dancers who will continue in the competition. In the performance round, the 20 finalists dance for America's votes, and each week the six contestants comprising the bottom three couples are given a chance to perform solo routines to encourage viewers to keep them on the show. Then the judges decide which dancers stay in the competition and which two are eliminated. Once the series is down to the Top 10 finalists, it's solely up to America to decide who remains in the competition. Following the performance shows, viewers can vote for their favorite couples. The live results shows reveal who keeps dancing and who goes home. SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE was created by Simon Fuller and Nigel Lythgoe and comes from 19 Entertainment, Ltd. and Dick Clark Productions, Inc.

'TIL DEATH

PRODUCTION COMPANY: Sony Pictures Television

EXECUTIVE PRODUCERS/WRITERS/CREATORS: Josh Goldsmith, Cathy Yuspa

EXECUTIVE PRODUCERS: Tim Hobert, Steve Skrovan

CAST: Brad Garrett as Eddie Stark, Joely Fisher as Joy Stark, Eddie Kaye Thomas as Jeff Woodcock, Kat Foster as Steph Woodcock, J.B. Smoove as Kenneth Westchester

'TIL DEATH is a comedy about the triumphs and tribulations of marriage and friendship from very different perspectives. It's about the funny - and annoying - things that happen between husbands, wives, neighbors and friends day after day after day. EDDIE (Brad Garrett) and JOY STARK (Joely Fisher) are your typical long-married couple: Eddie is the unemotional, cynical and somewhat rude husband while Joy is the caring, loving wife who on a daily basis has to put up with all things Eddie. You could say Joy is the yin to Eddie's yang. As a long-timemarried couple, they've been through it all together and actually survived. Joy and Eddie are the perfect fit. As much as they gripe about their marriage, Eddie really does love Joy and Joy, despite it all, loves Eddie for who he is. Living in suburban Philadelphia, Eddie and Joy hang with their likable but slightly annoying neighbors JEFF (Eddie Kaye Thomas) and STEPH WOODCOCK (Kat Foster) and with KENNETH ("KENNY") WESTCHESTER (J.B. Smoove), Eddie's "little brother" from the Big Brother program. Kenneth is a recent divorc with a penchant for ice cream and roller-skating. He is also the guy with all the answers just the wrong kind. From Sony Pictures Television, 'TIL DEATH was created by real-life husband and wife Josh Goldsmith and Cathy Yuspa ("The King of Queens," "What Women Want," "13 Going On 30"), who also serve as executive producers. They look forward to being together 'TIL DEATH.
