TV Bites: NBC Bans Reporter From Upfronts After Programming Leak

· You know how NBC's fall line-up was announced online this past weekend instead of at the Peacock's Upfront presentation, per usual? That is because James Hibberd, the Hollywood Reporter's television editor, sneaked into a video rehearsal of the presentation and leaked the programming. NBC has since retaliated by banning Hibberd from today's presentation (which, technically, he already saw) and canceling his one-on-one interviews with network executives Jeff Gaspin and Angela Bromstad. Maybe next year, NBC should spring for some extra security... or a venue other than the New York Hilton. [The Wrap]

ABC pulls the plug on another sitcom, Fox builds a new comedy night and more TV Bites after the jump.

· Not surprisingly, ABC has canceled its Alyssa Milano sitcom Romantically Challenged. [Deadline]

· Fox has designed a new Tuesday night comedy line-up for the fall which includes Glee and new shows Raising Hope and Running Wilde. [NYT]

· Fox and TBS have picked up The Big Bang Theory for syndication. [THR]
