- For NBC--flip-flop West Wing and Apprentice: Martha, leaving West Wing in a prestige-free competition slot. Also, West Wing seems a more sensible lead-in to E-Ring than does Martha.
- For ABC--Move Alias or Night Stalker out of their Thursday night death slots to the leadoff slot on Wednesday, where they'd be nice fits with Lost. Move the sitcoms to 9 on Thursdays, where they face no major sitcom competition.
- For CBS--Consider moving the Race to the slot, where the competition isn't so murderous and the timeslot is more "family friendly," while putting the sitcoms in the Race slot, where they can appeal to a low-brow audience that seems underserved there.
- For The WB--If Related is actually any good, flip it and One Tree Hill, which has a loyal audience unlikely to be eroded by Lost.
- For UPN--They're probably happy, but might want to think about flipping Top Model and Veronica Mars, so Veronica doesn't have to compete with Lost for the quality/supernatural/mystery segment.
Other suggestions and thoughts?
