ABC.com posted their fall 2008 schedule on their website this week. The line-up includes their new series, Life on Mars as well as the new game show, Opportunity Knocks. For the most part though, the line-up looks pretty familiar with a few changes and some absences (farewell October Road!). Eli Stone moved to Tuesdays giving Mars the post-Grey’s timeslot.
Obviously there’s always the chance that things could change in the line-up between now and the fall but here it is as it stands right now (new shows are in all caps):
