America's TV networks announce 2007-08 lineups

America's TV networks will this week unveil their 2007-08 schedules to advertisers and viewers in a series of upfront presentations so named because they are designed to allow advertisers to buy commercial spots "up front" before the season gets underway.

Up first will be NBC with its presentation today (Monday) at 15:00 Eastern (20:00 UK). It is expected that a wide-ranging revamp of the network's entire schedule may be announced, with even long-time Thursday-night anchor ER possibly to be moved. Friday Night Lights is expected to move to Friday, and it remains to be seen where a possible seventh season of Scrubs will end up.

ABC will make its presentation at 16:00 Eastern (21:00 UK) on Tuesday and confirm what will be happening with Grey's Anatomy spinoff Private Practice (Wednesdays at 9pm is rumoured) and Men In Trees, which was beaten by its midseason replacement October Road in the ratings.

Next up will be CBS, opting to make its presentation at 14:00 Eastern (19:00 UK) on Wednesday. It is still unclear as to whether Jericho, which had its season split and was moved around the schedule in search of viewers during its first run, will get a second season.

The CW will announce whether Veronica Mars will be staying or going at 10:30 Eastern (15:30 UK) on Thursday; Fox will round out the week with its 16:00 Eastern presentation also on Thursday. To watch for: will Brad Garrett's 'Til Death end up slotted next to Back To You, which stars fellow Everybody Loves Raymond alum Patricia Heaton?
