Default Shows That Seemed Like Better Fits On Other Networks

FOX: Back To You seemed like an NBC show

CBS: The Crazy Ones seemed like an NBC Show

NBC: The Blacklist is a CBS style show

CBS: The Hostages seems like one of NBC's failed much hyped serialized dramas that don't last.

CBS: Meego, this short-lived show belonged on ABC

FOX: Brooklyn Nine-Nine- Obvious NBC style with a similar humor to P&R and Office. It is also an offshoot of the same creative lineage.

WB: Just Legal might have worked for an older audience on CBS
ABC: Mike Judge's The Goode Family might have worked as replacement for King of the Hill
NBC: Freaks and Geeks might worked on the WB

Snapped should be on Discovery ID instead of Oxygen.

Well, Snapped is a show about women who go crazy and turn violent. Sounds perfect for Oxygen, a channel that seems otherwise devoted to marathons of The Bad Girls Club.

Happy Endings would have been a better fit on Fox than on ABC.

Ben & Kate would have succeeded if it aired on ABC rather than Fox.

The Michael J. Fox Show should be on ABC rather than NBC.

Fox's New Girl is exactly the type of show NBC should be making, even if it doesn't really doesn't fit with anything else they have.
