   I think they're just trying to phase it in slowly. Not just was there this,   
   but the announcement also said the Jetix portion of the TD schedule would   
   expand yet again. The most recent expansion (7p-6a weekdays, 4p-6a weekends)   
   took the weekly total to 83 hours. Come fall, according to the release, it   
   will be "more than 100."

   Probably not. I mean, why would they pull the Jetix branding and yet keep   
   the shows? ABC Family (the people who run the non-Jetix majority of the   
   schedule) really don't like the "kids" connection that the channel has --   
   even if it's only 20 hours each week.

   That's for sure. If both slots are used for new episodes -- and not one   
   repeat and one new -- they could get the finale on late Nov. or early Dec.   
   even with all the football pre-empts.

   They're really over-killing the Force thing. Next one will be a team of   
   roided-up bodybuilders -- Power Rangers Brute Force.
