Stephen McPherson, president, ABC Entertainment, recently outlined ABC’s plans for next season and announced the network’s new 2005-06 fall schedule. ABC’s schedule includes four returning reality TV shows and one new reality TV show for midseason. The returning reality TV shows are "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition", "Supernanny", "Wife Swap," and "The Bachelor" (returning mid-season). The new midseason reality TV show is "The Miracle Workers."
Commenting on the announcement, Mr. McPherson said: "Through strong development and strategic marketing, we were able to make valuable strides this season. Our responsibility next season and beyond is to continue that forward movement. We’re grateful to all of the people at ABC, as well as those in the creative community who are contributing to our promising first steps."
ABC’s reality TV fall primetime schedule, which will premiere in September, is as follows (all times listed are Eastern):

The airing date and time was not released for the mid-season "The Miracle Workers." However, a description of the show follows. "The Miracle Workers" are an elite team of physicians who embrace revolutionary medical treatments that many of us never knew existed. Each week the show will focus on a single patient with a serious medical condition and follow as this dream team of medical professionals changes his or her life forever through treatment. The team will utilize their extraordinary expertise in cutting edge medical technology to restore not only the health but also the hope of the patient. Each episode will feature some of the world’s most renowned medical experts performing breakthrough procedures to heal those who need it most. For individuals who otherwise would never have access to elite medical specialists or the ability to afford costly procedures, "The Miracle Workers" will make possible what was previously thought impossible.
