THIS WEEK: This week will be the first full week of sweeps this season as we are inside of Halloween week here in NITRO and we've got two major premieres to celebrate the autumn holiday. This is perhaps the most exciting week in NITRO history as we have a bunch of stuff happening this week including the start of a new era starting on Sunday with WFL Football going against the NFL and we have a 9-network race for the first time since 2010 as RTN our newest network begins their run and ROD unleashes their second network WCN both inside of the Federal Division.
BIGGEST PREMIERE: We have a pair of big premieres both airing on ICE this week as we have the premiere of the new revolutionary live mystery soap "Who Wanted Nichole Dead?" which premieres this Monday as viewers will be able to watch a 33 year old murder mystery that spans between three generations of the baby boomers, generation X, and Millennials finally go through the process of being solved. This soap stars Lori Loughlin who reprises her character Jody Travis from the old daytime soap The Edge of Night. You the viewers follow the clues and figure out who wanted Nichole dead. The other huge premiere is our first big TV movie event of the season in the Halloween reboot entry "Hospitality" which focuses on Michael Myers' homicidal niece played by Phoebe Tonkin who wrecks havoc all over a Chicago hospital to find her uncle Mike. The series is produced and directly by horror queen Danielle Harris who will actually be acting in both Hospitality and Girl Games 2 which premieres right before Hospitality. Hospitality premieres on ICE at 9pm on Thursday night. Also the fourth Janit O'Day spin-off "Heather" premieres later this week on SBC.

SUNDAY: In November of 2013, NITRO viewers all over the world will witness the birth of a new era. For the first time in 43 years since the American Football League merged with the National Football League nobody has had a plan to compete with the NFL well that all changes starting here in September 2013 as the ICE Phederation would be under the direction of a new Chief Executive Officer who had a new plan. That plan was to take down the male dominated pro sports league and use females in the same sport to compete and assassinate it once and for all. Over the last 5 years we have seen a changing of the guard in a once male dominated industry as a new breed of young females have taken over NITRO. It all started with the Allison Shields versus Alyson Stoner war in the summer of 2009 which changed everything as we know it forever and on Sunday officially starts the birth of a new era known as
The Bold and the Beautiful Era an era that was five years in the making.
In primetime The Carpenters Hour hold Detroit Week and a selection show and on TEN Hayden Panettiere's new variety show kicks off after NFL coverage.
NEXT WEEK (NOVEMBER 4-10, 2013): November Sweeps continues with another huge week of action as Tuesday launches the start of Kelly Green Tuesdays on ICE as Saved By the Bell spin-off Kelly Kapowski debuts and the start of the first competition pageant of the season kicks off from Ford Field in Detroit. ROD starts the competition shows for Miss ROD on Wednesday in Nashville. We are expected to see more TEN and RTN premieres as more of their schedule gets rounded out. On the night before Night of Champions starts another competition season of The Carpenters Hour at Yankee Stadium in New York on Sunday.
FUTURE NOTABLE PREMIERE (NOVEMBER 5, 2013): Tiffani-Amber Thiessen worked with Dustin Diamond on her new Saved By the Bell spin-off Kelly Kapowski which will be ICE's last comedy premiere of the fall supposedly. Kelly Kapowski will follow her character who establishes a relationship with her niece who has the same exact name as her and how she is a pain in the ass to live with convincing her friends to live with her up in Seattle. The first episode premieres on Tuesday at 9:30pm live from Ford Field.
