Hello All -
Here's a thread to predict the fall schedule for FOX!
All potential pilots can be found on www.thefutoncritic.com and some recent buzz about certain pilots can be found here: http://www.deadline.com/2010/04/primetime-pilot-panic-early-hot-list/ or here: http://livefeed.hollywoodreporter.com/2010/04/pilot-status-report-.html
Feel free to update this all the way until the upfronts!!
Here's my prediction:
Mondays
8:00 House
9:00 MIDLAND
--- With "24" gone it's time to launch a new show out of "House" and "Midland" looks among the most promising
Tuesdays
8:00 TRAFFIC LIGHT
8:30 SECURITY
9:00 Glee
--- Word on the street is that FOX is wanting to launch comedies on Tuesday (which could use some) and "Glee" is the perfect show to pair with comedies. If they can get some solid live action comedies, they'll be fine as opposed to garbage like "Brothers" and "'Til Death." I'm convinced "Glee" will have a short lifespan even though it's a big hit now, but it should be good for next year. It wouldn't be out of the question to see "Glee" at 8 and the comedies at 9
Wednesdays
8:00 Human Target
9:00 BREAKOUT KINGS
--- "Human Target" is on the fence and I say it comes back for another try. "Breakout Kings" sounds like it could be a hit and if it doesn't go after "House," it will almost surely go to Weds at 9
Thursdays
8:00 Bones
9:00 Fringe
--- This night is working well for the most part even though "Fringe" isn't doing great but I see it remaining in tact
Fridays
8:00 Encores
9:00 Kitchen Nightmares
--- I don't think FOX tries anything drastic for awhile on Fridays. Most likely it will give exposure to some of its hits with the middling "Kitchen Nightmares"
Saturdays
8:00 Cops
8:30 Cops
9:00 America's Most Wanted
--- just a guess
Sundays
7:00 NFL Overrun/The OT/Encores
8:00 The Simpsons
8:30 The Cleveland Show
9:00 Family Guy
9:30 American Dad
--- No more messing around with new shows. For now, these four should stick around. It's dumb to try anything in the 7:00 hour in the fall with the NFL so I just see them airing repeats for weeks when NFL does not take up the time. Perhaps they should even join them "in progress" so "Simpsons" can always start at 8
Midseason: American Idol, Lie to Me, RIDE ALONG, TAXMAN, TERRA NOVA
--- I say they hang on to "Lie to Me" for one more year as insurance. The new shows are merely a guess but I think "Terra Nova" is pretty much a sure bet.
Cancelled/Ended: 24, Brothers, Dollhouse, Sons of Tuscon, 'Til Death
