And, as expected, the Alphabet Network also introduced at the "upfronts" presentation in New York City Tuesday a new comedy based on the Geico cavemen commercials. The week-long presentations are when networks introduce their fall TV lineups to advertisers.
Here's ABC's list of new shows:
Dramas
"Big Shots" - Four dysfunctional CEOs seek out each other for support and to share business secrets, until the women in their lives intervene.
"Cashmere Mafia" - NBC has "Lipstick Jungle," ABC has this similarly-themed drama about four "ambitious and sexy" women who balance careers and personal lives. Produced by "Sex and the City" creator Darren Star.
"Dirty Sexy Money" - Peter Krause ("Six Feet Under") plays an idealistic lawyer who suddenly becomes the personal attorney for a wealthy and controversial New York family.
"Eli Stone" - Another drama about a lawyer, this time a powerful corporate attorney who discovers he has an aneurysm in his brain, along with a higher calling to do good.
"Private Practice" - Addison Forbes (Kate Walsh) of "Grey's Anatomy" moves to Los Angeles where she finds even more hot surgeons in this spin-off of the smash medical drama.
"Pushing Daisies" - Another murder investigator who sees dead people (remember "Raines"?) Ned can bring things back to life with a touch. So he revives his dead childhood sweetheart to help him catch killers. The one caveat - he can't touch her again or she dies again for good.
