LOS ANGELES (thefutoncritic.com) -- ABC has shored up its midseason schedule, setting time periods for newcomers "The Goode Family" and "The Unusuals."
Both series will be featured on the network's Wednesday schedule, which has "Scrubs" at 8:00/7:00c, "Goode" at 8:30/7:30c, "Lost" at 9:00/8:00c and "Unusuals" at 10:00/9:00c.
The moves, along with its complete midseason lineup, were released this afternoon on ABCStagePass.com, the network's advertising sales portal.
[UPDATED: Due to popular demand, here's screen captures of the lineup.]

10:00/9:00c - "Brothers & Sisters"
The aforementioned lineup mirrors the schedule that began floating around earlier this week (read the story), save for Wednesday and Friday nights.
That schedule had a full hour of "Scrubs" at 8:00/7:00c on Wednesdays with "Life on Mars" in the 10:00/9:00c slot. Said lineup is certainly still a possibility should "Goode" and "Unusuals" not roll out until February or March.
Current Wednesday occupants "Pushing Daisies" and "Dirty Sexy Money" presumably will be capped at 13 episodes, but remain under consideration for next season.
And lastly, "Here Comes the Newlyweds" - previously targeted for Friday nights - will stay on the bench for now.
