The Practice Acclaimed TV producer David E. Kelley is furious at ABC for moving his hit legal drama "The Practice" to Monday nights, only to see it crushed in the ratings by Fox reality sensation "Joe Millionaire." "The Practice," which consistently ranked No. 1 in its Sunday night time slot this fall, finished a lowly fourth place in its first airing Monday opposite "Millionaire" on Fox, NBC drama "Third Watch" and the CBS comedies "Everybody Loves Raymond" and "Still Standing." "They've killed it in one fell swoop," Kelley told entertainment trade paper Daily Variety Wednesday, adding that he was mystified from the start by ABC's decision to move the series. "I would hope (ABC) would act in their own self-interest and put it back where it was doing well."
