SCHEDULE CHANGES COMING FROM @FOXBROADCASTING FOR @BOBSBURGERSFOX AND @CLEVELANDonFOX
The Futon Critic got the exclusive report that FOX is doing some lineup changes for Animated Domination in the next couple months with American Dad, Bob’s Burgers, and The Cleveland Show. We’ve got some words to mince for the actions so find out after the jump.
According to the Futon Critic, FOX is looking to do some shuffling for its Animation Domination lineup. Here is how the lineup is set to look starting in March 2013:
Sunday, March 3
7:00/6:00c – “The Simpsons” (Repeat)
7:30/6:30c – “The Cleveland Show”
8:00/7:00c – “The Simpsons”
8:30/7:30c – “The Cleveland Show” (New Episode – Special Time)
9:00/8:00c – “Family Guy”
9:30/8:30c – “Bob’s Burgers” (New Episode – Special Time)Sunday, March 10
7:00/6:00c – “The Simpsons” (Repeat)
7:30/6:30c – “American Dad” (New Episode – Special Time)
8:00/7:00c – “The Simpsons”
8:30/7:30c – “The Cleveland Show” (New Episode – Special Time)
9:00/8:00c – “Family Guy”
9:30/8:30c – “Bob’s Burgers” (New Episode – Special Time)Sunday, March 17
7:00/6:00c – “Bob’s Burgers” (Repeat)
7:30/6:30c – “The Cleveland Show”
8:00/7:00c – “The Simpsons”
8:30/7:30c – “The Cleveland Show” (New Episode – Special Time)
9:00/8:00c – “Family Guy”
9:30/8:30c – “Bob’s Burgers” (New Episode – Special Time)
To be honest, I’m not crazy about this lineup, not one bit. I don’t think American Dad should be taken off of the schedule at all, nor would I take it off its 9:30pm EST time slot due to the fact that the show has a TV-14 rating of which is more suited to an older audience versus Bob’s Burgers typically TV-PG younger audience. To be honest, it really doesn’t make a lot of sense to me nor does it make any logic, but I guess if its a ratings thing we will have to see how the numbers play out to see if the shuffle works or not.







There's got to be some kind of twist that's going to happen with this. I don't know if they're setting up an April Fool's joke now or what's going on, but it seems too strange that they'd suddenly reverse on doing a fourth and fifth season after the show was already renewed and they were even just talking about working on those seasons like a couple months ago or something. Or maybe the two episodes yet to release will secretly somehow each be like a "season" in themselves?
