The half-hour comedy is about a 15-year-old science genius who moves cross country to work for NASA.

While trying to DVR Grease Live! last night before its premiere, I was struck by one peculiarity of the musical (and no, I'm not talking about the odd stunt casting choice of Bunk from The Wire as Coach Calhoun): it was on Fox. I had assumed that, like the "live," audience-free versions of The Wiz, Peter Pan and The Sound of Music preceding Grease Live!, we'd be watching an NBC production.
