And now some of my secret, inside sources are giving me the scoop on the new shows. Here's an idea of what you might be tuning into next fall.
On NBC, "Lipstick Jungle," an adaptation of "Sex and the City"'s Candice Bushnell's novel, is said to be quite good. "Fort Pit," a police dramatic comedy from a "Law and Order" veteran also gets a thumbs up from insiders, as does "Journeyman," a fantasy about a time traveler. Getting more negative reviews is "Bionic Woman," from the "Battlestar Galactica" team.

People are telling me that "Viva Laughlin" looks good-- it's certainly been getting a lot of buzz. Hugh Jackman is executive producing and appearing in the remake of the popular British TV series, which is a musical!
Getting negative reviews for CBS is "Demons," a project from CBS Paramount Network TV about an ex-Jesuit priest-psychologist who performs exorcisms.

My one review for the CW's new slate is that "Gossip Girl," "Reaper" and "Wild at Heart" will all probably go -- so tune in this May for news on what snags advertisers, and next fall to check out the shows.
