The X Factor (Fox) – 99:1
You're kidding, right? Fox won't touch this show.

Ringer (CW) – 80:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: CW Although Sarah Michelle Gellar is grandma age for the CW, this was a gift from parent CBS.
-
2 Broke Girls (CBS) – 60:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: CBS A snappy odd-couple comedy wedged between hits. On the other hand, this network does not abide failure, so if it doesn't find an audience fast, drop the 0 after the 6.
-
A Gifted Man (CBS) – 55:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: CBS Dead people talking, sentimentality, Friday nights, CBS. A lock.
-
Unforgettable (CBS) – 50:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: CBS Proven star in Poppy Montgomery, slow show. But it will likely do no worse than second each week at 10 p.m. Tuesday. The smell of safety.
-
The Secret Circle (CW) – 50:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: CBS I would like to put a witch's curse on this, but again, it's the CW. And this is a sister show to The Vampire Diaries.
-
Suburgatory (ABC) – 45:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: ABC A Juno-esque comedy between The Middle and Modern Family. A lot would have to go wrong.
-
Allen Gregory (Fox) – 40:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: FOX Fox loves animation, even when it appears to be unfunny. Plus, it's between The Simpsons and Family Guy.
-
Terra Nova (Fox) – 30:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: FOX Not convinced this will be the massive hit everyone expects, Spielberg or not.
-
Person of Interest (CBS) – 30:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: CBS A show I really like, but it will have to beat Bones or Grey's Anatomy regularly or the network will run out of patience.
-
New Girl (Fox) – 30:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: FOX It's set to air after Glee and before Raising Hope. Besides, if the comedy gets canceled, who would want to tell Zooey Deschanel and make her cry? No one.
-
Up All Night (NBC) – 25:1
A good comedy that will be crushed by The X Factor and Survivor. But the network surely knew that, so perhaps it will get a longer leash than other shows.
-
Once Upon a Time (ABC) – 25:1
The odds would be a lot shorter, but I think in a fairytale twist, it's going to defy death.
-
Last Man Standing (ABC) – 25:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: ABC Terrible show, proven star in Tim Allen. This is either going to be the Unkillable Awful Show of the new season, or it will implode and take Man Up! with it.
-
How to Be a Gentleman (CBS) – 25:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: CBS A bad comedy, but follows The Big Bang Theory.
-
Pan Am (ABC) – 20:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: ABC At some point, executives will accept that the money for the pilot is a write-off. Then it's over.
-
Prime Suspect (NBC) – 15:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: NBC Despite annoyance that it's unlike the original, I'll root for Maria Bello. but solid competition (Private Practice, The Mentalist) makes it iffy.
-
Man Up! (ABC) – 15:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: ABC Wimpiest of the new shows questioning manhood.
-
Free Agents (NBC) – 15:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: NBC Shorter odds than its lead-in, Up All Night. Plus, ABC's competition Suburgatory is funnier.
-
Revenge (ABC) – 10:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: ABC Lots of hype, fun pilot. But it's unlikely to win CSI's 10 p.m. Wednesday slot — ever.
-
Grimm (NBC) – 10:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: NBC The latest genre show on a genre night, but it might be a case of last one in, first one out.
-
Whitney (NBC) – 8:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: NBC Of course, this network stubbornly stuck with Outsourced, so you never know. But people drift off from the last Thursday night comedy slot.
-
The Playboy Club (NBC) – 5:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: NBC A not-very-good show with time-slot competition (Castle, Hawaii Five-0) that will kill it.
-
Charlie’s Angels (ABC) – 3:1
Image Credit: Photo Credit: ABC Unless it wins the distinction of beoming this season's Unkillable Awful Show (like Mike & Molly), this remake won't be around long.
