ABC announces fall; slogan: Women, money, sex


ABC's upfront announcement:
George Lopez is out; Guilford gal Jennifer Westfeldt and "Notes from the Underbelly" and spring drama "October Road" are in; "According to Jim" a possible backup.
Also renewed are “Brothers & Sisters,” “Men in Trees,” “Ugly Betty,” “Grey’s Anatomy,” “Lost,” “Desperate Housewives,” “Boston Legal,” “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” “Dancing with the Stars,” “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition,” “The Bachelor,” “Supernanny,” “America’s Funniest Home Videos” and “Wife Swap.”
Ambitious new development includes four comedies and seven dramas, led by "Big Shots" with Yale-educated Josh Malina and Connecticut-raised Dylan McDermott in a show about CEOs and their personal lives, and "Dirty Sexy Money" with Peter Krause.
Also, Connecticut-raised Amy Brenneman will be in the "Grey's Anatomy" spinoff with Kate Walsh, "Private Practice," along with Tim Daly and Taye Diggs. Note the second guy from the right in photo above, next to Brenneman, who is the villain from "Prison Break."
