UPDATED HOURLY! After the Strike: When Your Favorites Will Return!
| CSI Miami by Doug Hyun/CBS, Women’s Murder Club by Andrew Southam/ABC and Gossip Girl by Andrew Eccles/The CW With an end to the three-month-old WGA strike imminent (yay!), the networks have quietly begun outlining plans to salvage what's left of the current TV season. At the same time, I've been quietly picking at my moles to get a preview of those plans — the results of which appear in chart form below. Keep in mind that the following information remains extremely tentative and is subject to change (and probably will).
