With it getting harder and harder to launch a bona fide scripted hit on network prime time because of time taken by reality shows, the off-net business is getting tougher. There's not much material in the pipeline for the future. Syndicators are launching six off-net shows in 2003: sitcoms King of Queens from Sony and Para-mount's Becker and The Parkers, as well as Twenti-eth's Angel and Warner Bros.' The West Wing, also premiering on NBC-owned Bravo, the only one-hour off-net launches. Sony also is launching Rip-ley's Believe It or Not, a half-hour strip, off of its run on cable network TBS.
