I am so happy Hope and Faith got renewed! I didn't see the season finale so I hope I'll be able to understand the season premiere.

LOS ANGELES (thefutoncritic.com) -- ABC has quietly bumped the one-hour third season premiere of "Hope & Faith" to Friday, September 30 at 9:00/8:00c, one week later than previously announced.

In its place on September 23, the network plans to add an extra episode of "Supernanny," which launches its second season earlier that night at 8:00/7:00c.

No reason was given for the change.

Emile Levisetti, Nastaran Dibai and Jeffrey B. Hodes are the executive producers of "Hope & Faith," a Touchstone Television production.

I hope this isn't the beginning of the end.........I remember when ABC kept preemptying Lois and Clark after they stupidly moved the show to Saturday.

Why do shows premiere so late in the year anyway?

I know, things should start in the begining of september and not the middle or the end.
