What You’ll See on Fox This Fall

May 19, 2009 By Mike Hickerson 3 Comments

In the early 90’s, Fox made a bold programming move, taking the top ten hit “The Simpsons” and putting it up against the number one show on TV at the tiime, “The Cosby Show.”

Now it looks like Fox is taking another run at the established Thursday night programming with its fall schedule.  This time, it will be the sci-fi series, “Fringe” that makes the move.  The new schedule puts the drama on Thursday evenings at 9 p.m. EST where it will compete with ABC’s “Grey’s Anatomy” and the CW’s “Supernatural” as well as one of TV’s top rated shows, “CSI.”

“Dollhouse” will remain in its current timeslot of Friday at 9 p.m. EST.  Its companion series for the spring, “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles” was terminated.

The full Fox schedule is as follows.

The Fox fall 2009 schedule:

Monday – 8 p.m., “House”; 9 p.m., “Lie to Me”

Tuesday – 8 p.m., “So You Think You Can Dance” (two hours)

Sunday – 7 p.m., Football OT; 8 p.m., “The Simpsons”; 8:30 p.m., “The Cleveland Show”; 9 p.m., “Family Guy”; 9:30 p.m., “American Dad”

    Fringe against SPN? Good thing Tivos have 2 tuners…

    Sorry that TSCC won’t be coming back. I rather did want to see how they were going to solve the whole “John Connor never existed” thing.

    I’d love to know what genious thought that putting Dollhouse with two totally unrelated comedies was a good idea? It seems like it would be a much better fit with Fringe, or possibly even house. I find it hard to believe that the shows it’s with now will share any kind of audience.
