Buzz building on fall TV skeds

After losing “Buffy, the Vampire Slayer,” the word is that the WB Network
will probably keep the show’s spinoff, “Angel.”The young-Superman high school series “Smallville” looks like a shoo-in on
the drama side, with “Murphy’s Dozen” and Kevin Williamson’s “Glory Days”
are considered to have a shot.Front-runners on the comedy side are understood to include “Maybe I’m
Adopted,” “Young Person’s Guide to Becoming a Rock Star,” “The
(Mis)adventures of Fiona Plum” and the “Sabrina, the Teenage Witch” spinoff
“Witchright Hall.” The Dan Staley-Rob Long sitcom “Men, Women and Dogs” also
is said to be in the mix.Riding high on the recent “Buffy” acquisition, UPN is eyeing another
potential WB drama import, “Roswell,” in case the frog network passes on the
20th Century Fox TV alien series.
