Last week, the broadcast networks presented their fall 2016 primetime schedules. Here's a quick network by network breakdown of the major changes and cancellations, because it's never too early to start planning your viewing habits.

For NBC, big changes include moving Blindspot to Wednesdays at 8, and putting Superstore and new comedy The Good Place before Chicago Med and The Blacklist on Thursdays. Not returning next season are Best Time Ever With Neil Patrick Harris, Crowded, Game of Silence, Heartbeat, Heroes: Reborn, Mr. Robinson, The Mysteries of Laura, The Player, Telenovela, Truth Be Told, and Undateable.

For FOX, Rosewood moves to Thursdays at 8, and it's being replaced by new drama Lethal Weapon. Following Rosewood is new drama Pitch, pushing Bones' final season to midseason. The Exorcist, airing Fridays at 9 after Hell's Kitchen, will do the same to Sleepy Hollow. Not returning next season are Bordertown, Cooper Barrett's Guide to Surviving Life, Grandfathered, The Grinder, Knock Knock Live, Minority Report, and Second Chance.

For ABC, Kerry Washington's pregnancy is pushing Scandal to midseason, and the #TGIT gap will be filled with Notorious. Conviction will take over Castle's spot, and Designated Survivor will replace Nashville. Finally, Secrets and Lies will, at long last, air season 2 Sundays at 9 before Quantico. Not returning next season are The Astronaut Wives Club, Blood & Oil, Castle, The Family, Galavant, Marvel's Agent Carter, The Muppets, Nashville, Of Kings and Prophets, Rookie Blue, The Whispers, and Wicked City.

Over on CBS, to accommodate football, comedies are moving back to Monday night. After football, new sitcom The Great Indoors will air after The Big Bang Theory. Lastly, MacGyver will replace The Amazing Race. Not returning next season are Angel From Hell, CSI: Cyber, Extant, The Good Wife, Mike & Molly, Rush Hour, and Under the Dome.

Perhaps the biggest change is Supergirl's move to the CW, a network that renewed nearly all of its series. The network will introduce Frequency after The Flash, and No Tomorrow after Arrow. Supernatural will air Thursdays after Legends of Tomorrow. Shows returning during midseason are The Originals, iZombie, Reign, The 100, and new drama Riverdale. Not returning next season are America's Next Top Model, Containment, and Significant Mother.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
