ABC this morning announced its 2009 fall schedule, and sadly for reality-averse viewers, Home Makeover and Dancing with the Stars will continue to pollute the airwaves. But there are plenty of new programs to celebrate too — including Ordinary Family (pictured right), about a clan that develops superpowers after its plane crashes in the Amazon River. The complete line-up after the jump.

It’s only the beginning of a very exciting upfronts week and already NBC has buried an expensive apocalyptic project and unveiled vaguely racist previews of their new series, while CBS rekindled a relationship with Tom Selleck, Fox announced a Glee -tastic fall schedule, and Movieline paid tribute to the recast actors and predicted which new shows will die first. Still, the day is far from over. Here’s the latest in pilot news.

Yesterday marked the 20th anniversary of puppet grandmaster Jim Henson’s unexpected death from organ failure, a passing that, for some, was easily as paralyzing as the loss of John Lennon. Following his 30-plus years of work, in which he gave us Sesame Street , The Muppet Show , Fraggle Rock , and many other projects, Jim Henson’s surviving colleagues convened in London for what is still a devastatingly emotional ceremony to watch, even now. Videos of the poignant event after the jump.

How determined is Andrew Dominik to get his Naomi Watts-toplined Marilyn Monroe film out before a competing one that stars Michelle Williams ? This determined: we already have our first look at Watts as Monroe in Blonde , and the film hasn’t even started shooting yet. Allocine (via The Playlist ) noticed a poster touting the film at Cannes, and there’s speculation that the image came from a fitting or screen test; personally, I thought it was Monroe herself until I squinted real hard (Watts looks a little thinner than the sex siren here). Still looks kinda morphed together! Have a gander at the big version of the image and decide for yourself:

TV is a tough business: you can ace your audition, head into the pilot shoot with the whole network’s support behind you, follow your director’s notes to the letter, and still get fired from what may eventually be a bona fide television classic. (Just ask Lisa Kudrow, who was replaced by Peri Gilpin on Frasier after the third day of rehearsals. Luckily, she landed Friends the next year.) With that in mind, we thought it fair to pay tribute to the actors who were oh-so-close this pilot season before the network decided to go in a different direction. Godspeed, kids. Here’s hoping you book a guest star arc in time for November sweeps.

Former Food Network host Juan-Carlos Cruz is expected to plead not guilty today in his arraignment for allegedly trying to hire two homeless people to kill his wife. After two men tipped off the cops last week, Cruz, who hosted the channel’s Calorie Commando , was arrested and taken to the Los Angeles County Jail. According to TMZ, Cruz approached the men at the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica and supplied them with $1,000, a box cutter and instructions to slit his wife’s throat. [ Radar ]
