ABC fall schedule

Ratings crusher, 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?' will get a fourth weekly edition every Wednesday evening. Analysts predict that the show will earn an estimated $500 million in revenue next year.

Only four new shows will debut on the network this Autumn (compared with 6 last year). These include: "Geena", a comedy starring Geena Davis as a career woman thrust into the role of mum by marrying a widower; "Madigan Men," starring Gabriel Byrne as a middle-aged, recently divorced man who turns to both his son and father for dating advice; "People Who Fear People," an ensemble comedy about paranoia; and "Gideon's Crossing," with Homicide star Andre Braugher returning to TV as a compassionate doctor.

Of last year's six new shows, only one will remain: "Once and Again", which will air on Tuesdays at 8pm.
