- ABC really has had a busy week this week when it comes to television. Their week began with the announcement of the firing of Brooke Smith from Grey’s Anatomy. They also moved forward in talks to pick up King of the Hill. Somewhere in that mix, they also gave a full season order to the Christina Applegate comedy series, Samantha Who. This one has been doing great for the network, so a full season order is not surprising.
  
  Word also has come out of the Ugly Betty set with a new arrival. Nikki Blonsky is set to join the series as a friend of Betty who might not have the best of intentions. This one has raised a bit of a red flag to me though. Just last week, Lindsay Lohan left the series as Kimmie - a former enemy of Betty’s that turns friendly and then has less than the best intentions. Lindsay Lohan earned a kick in the rear before getting the Mode doors slammed in her face, and now we have a new person coming in with a similar role. Something is fishy there to me.
  
  ABC has also given the boot to one of their series hopefuls, Singled With Parents. That series starred Alyssa Milano, and it had been picked up by the network in August for a mid-season entry. Since then the series has had problems behind the scenes, and the network couldn’t come to an agreement about the series with its producers. This caused ABC to pull the plug on the series on Wednesday. Is ABC now done with its changes, or is there more on the horizon?
