ABC's Fall Line-up Announced

With shows like ‘Lost,’ ‘Grey’s Anatomy,’ ‘Ugly Betty,’ and ‘Desperate Housewives’ already on their roster, many of us are wondering what ABC will bring to table next season. What will be the next successful serial drama to get us all hooked? Will it be the ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ spin-off, ‘Private Practice’ (are they seriously sticking with that title?)? Or perhaps ‘Cashmere Mafia’ which sounds strangely similar to NBC’s upcoming new series ‘Lipstick Jungle’ will be the next big hit. Maybe we’ll fall in love with one of their new comedies.

The sitcom centering on those cavemen from the Geico commercials is set to air on Tuesday nights. Though I have my doubts about whether or not this show will be worth watching, it could be decent if they get some really good writers and can convince viewers that watching a group of cavemen trying to get by in modern-day society is funny.
