ABC holds the top two spots for highly anticipated fall TV shows, or those with the highest online consumer discussion and sentiment.

These include Pushing Daisies and Private Practice, the current leaders in consumer sentiment, according to BrandIntel (via MarketingCharts).

Though ABC leads sentiment rankings with five shows in the top 10, NBC's Bionic Woman dominates consumer discussion, with double the amount of online consumer discussion as Private Practice, BrandIntel's "2007 TV Landscape" report found.

BrandIntel TV Landscape highlights the upcoming fall shows and networks generating the most positive discussion and sentiment in online consumer communities such as blogs, discussion forums and other social media sites.

The report found that overall discussion for the 2007 fall season was up 300 percent from last year, primarily due to earlier release of previews and trailers following the advertising upfronts.

Other key findings:

• Pushing Daisies (ABC) has the highest sentiment and intent to view for all new shows with its highly original content and vibrant previews.
• Comedies are not generating as much consumer discussion with Back to You (FOX); the only comedy to crack the BrandIntel Top 10 new shows.
• While the Bionic Woman (NBC) has twice the discussion of any new show, that is mainly attributable to the recent hiring of Isaiah Washington.
• Despite generating high volumes of discussion, the novelty behind Cavemen has worn off with viewers. Caveman is the lowest-ranked show at number 22, as determined by the low quality of discussion - with conversation focused on the marketing of the show, not the intent of consumers to view.
