My Network TV Sets 2010-11 Schedule

Earlier this week it was announced that SyFy got the rights to WWE SMACKDOWN from its current home of My Network TV. Since then, viewers have wondered how the network would replace its biggest rating draw. The Answer: MONK!

My Network TV has added two hour of MONK to its schedule and will air on Friday nights. This is the second USA series acquired my the mini net, as BURN NOTICE was announced earlier to be coming tot he Wednesday Night Schedule.

In a somewhat surprising move, MyTV has dropped its Thursday Night Movie and will now go with a two hour block of WITHOUT A TRACE. At least Warner Brothers can recover some of that lost money by TNT on the series.

The changes and the decision to drop SMACKDOWN from the schedule comes as the Monday - Wednesday schedule is up 46% from last year. That success proved that cheaper programming model of Reruns of branded series can work just as well, for a lower cost. WWE SMACKDOWN had a price tag of about $30+ million per year.
