There's Safety in (Shows with) Numbers

Did you take a look at NBC's Fall schedule? Take a look at Wednesday and Thursday:
WEDNESDAY
8-9 pm “The Biggest Loser”
9-9:30 pm “20 GOOD YEARS”
9:30-10 pm “30 ROCK”
10-11 pm “Law & Order”

THURSDAY
8-8:30 pm “My Name Is Earl” (new time)
8:30-9 pm “The Office” (new time)
9-10 pm “STUDIO 60 ON THE SUNSET STRIP”
Anything stick out?

All three new shows (in caps) have a number in the title! More than 90 series have already appeared on US primetime network TV with a number in the title.

And that brings us to this week's trivia questions.
