Horrible time slot this year for the show - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

On the same time as Sunday Night Football. Damm, Friday would have been a lot better than Sunday.

It's actually a much better timeslot than it had last year. It has The Simpsons as a lead-in which is pretty much the best lead-in a comedy could have on FOX (that and Family Guy).

But what if it doesn't hold a large number of the Simpsons viewers? Doesn't that mean it will be moved again

Depends I guess. But I think putting it between the networks' two biggest comedies is basically the best exposure it could've gotten - much better than throwing it back on Tuesday with the low-rated New Girl/Mindy Project pairing.

The post-Simpsons and post-Family Guy slots were able to keep marginal shows like American Dad and Bob's Burgers alive for many years so hopefully it can do the same for B99.

It is not going to become a fallen victim right away. Mulaney is joining this show on Sunday Nights.

Mulaney?

irehtman · 09-03-2014, 07:00 AM

Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Mulaney are a back-to-back FOX sitcoms for this Sunday Night.

They start on September 28, 2014.

Another reason User:TVFactFan thinks the new timeslot is "horrible": Brooklyn Nine-Nine will be sandwiching itself between two evil animated shows this season. (and by "evil", I mean unwatchable) The first animated program is more unwatchable than the other.

I won't watch Mulaney but they should have kept Bob's Burgers sandwiched in between The Simpsons and Family Guy and put in Brooklyn 99 after Family Guy. But Seth has Bordertown coming at midseason and may put it after Family Guy.

What's up with that? I hate when the stupid Networks do crap like this.

irehtman · 12-02-2014, 08:55 AM

The second half of this season will help improve this show because the second half begins after the Super Bowl.

It will be more safer if FOX hasn't cancelled Enlisted in the wrong time, even if Enlisted had poor ratings or not.
