The husband-and-wife team of Charles Shyer and Nancy Meyers have shrewdly exploited the middle-aged descent of post-WWII baby boomers by casting Steve Martin and Diane Keaton as well-heeled establishment parents in their slightly retooled version of FATHER OF THE BRIDE, Vincente Minnelli's 1950 hit, with the net result of allowing the graying fortysomething generation to watch themselves become their own parents on-screen.

After attending the networks' upfront presentations all week, the Biz has this analysis of the coming season. (Click here for next fall's grid and new-show descriptions.) CWYou've got to wonder what went wrong in CW's new-series development process if the network had to bring back 7th Heaven — even though the show lost a reported $16 million for WB this past season.

You may also have caught Goetz on The West Wing, The Practice, Gilmore Girls, Family Law or in guest spots on a slew of other shows. While you're mourning read more
