(May 20, 2012)
-- The five major broadcast networks have announced their fall
primetime schedules and they are heavily dominated by old and
new comedies and talent shows such as The X-Factor and The
Voice.
In fact, The Voice and The X-Factor combined will take up six
hours of air time this fall with the latter introducing new
celebrity judges Britney Spears and Demi Lovato.
As for the new comedies, they will include a breakout role for
The Office's Mindy Kaling (The Mindy Project on Fox) while the
new dramas will feature Friday Night Lights' Connie Britton in
Nashville on ABC.
Below is a look at the complete 2012 Fall Schedule, but keep in
mind that some of your favorites may not be on the list because
