welcome to the 2003-04 letterten Fall Preview
The all-new Fall Season. It's something I look forward to each year. The TV Guide and Entertainment Weekly fall preview issues are my most anticipated magazines each year. I've been "predicting" the hits and misses for years, but last year I decided to put my money where my mouth is and publish my prognostications. If they can do it, so can I.

Please note that this data is compiled mostly from Tribune Media's zap2it.com as well as tvguide.com, epguides.com, sitcomsonline.com and all of the network websites. (Some of the data, mostly cast lists, can get stale and although I've tried very hard to make sure this data is accurate, there's a chance someone is or isn't attached to a show when they should/shouldn't be. Please let me know.)

While this is being produced, I don't screen anything or peek at anyone else's predictions -- even those magazines; they are like my reward when I've finished. It's my gut based on a lot of tv watching - and thinking I know what works and what doesn't. It's also my take on understanding the biz, knowing of writers, producers and actors attached to various projects as well as my grids.

Nothing jumps out at me this year as huge hit, but I'll say "Navy NCIS" and "The Lyon's Den" would be the two hot ones. Half a notch down, mainly due to slotting, "Two and a Half Men" and "Coupling".

Enjoy the season, the preview and drop me a note to chat about this stuff!
