ABC has high hopes for the aliens-next-door comedy "Neighbors." Fox is banking on new Tuesday night comedies and the Kevin Bacon drama "The Following." NBC is giving a big rollout to J.J. Abrams' "Revolution," and CBS looks very confident in the new sitcom "Partners," about gay and straight best friends.
The CW, after a rough season, is going a little wild. In a good way.
As they unveiled their 2012-13 schedules to advertisers at upfront presentations last week, the networks revealed what they see as their most likely hits. Nothing signals big expectations for a show like scheduling it after "The Voice," as NBC is doing with "Revolution," or after "Modern Family," as ABC is doing with "Neighbors."
