Reply from Ausiello: Your bone was delivered via press release a few weeks ago, and it looked a little something like this: Men in Trees will take over Cashmere Mafia's Wednesday at 10 pm/ET time slot beginning Feb. 27.
 
Best-case scenario, ABC keeps the show there until May 7, which is when its current 11-episode surplus will have been depleted.
 
But considering ABC's track record with MIT — 234 time slots in two years! — I'm not holding my breath.
