On Fall TV, the Networks Are Planning Something Borrowed
by noteworthy at 9:30 am EDT, May 24, 2005

For the six big broadcast television networks, imitation is the sincerest form of desperation.

"Everybody Hates Chris," a sitcom to appear on UPN, is based on the Brooklyn childhood of the comedian Chris Rock, who will narrate each episode.

Oh, boy! I hope it's like "Everybody Loves Raymond!"

"An off-the-charts hit, the best comedy of the season, hands down, no contest, the show to watch," raved Shari Ann Brill.

It is, it is like Raymond! Yay!

Of the 31 new series scheduled to appear in the coming season on the 6 networks, more than a dozen can be categorized as inspired by, or, more cynically, derived from, current hits.

I just thought this quote was amusing:

"CBS has a significant dependence on crime now."

I love it when I am informed that a show that has yet to air is a hit. Whose executive penis does Chris Rock purse his lips around the base of each day? I wonder...
