Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, Sci-Fi/Horror, FOX, News, Ratings,
Okay - how can we spin this announcement for the Dollhouse fans out there?
Let’s start with the bad news. There won’t be much to be thankful for this November. In order to stop the bleeding on Friday, FOX has opted to take the show off the air during the sweeps month. Repeats of House and Bones will take over for the Joss Whedon program - and comedies ‘Til Death and Brothers - starting November 6.

FOX Reveals Fall Schedule
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Comedy, Drama, Music, Prime Time, Reality, FOX, American Idol, Family Guy, So You Think You Can Dance, Gossip, Renewals,
With the spring season winding down, the fall season is already waiting to heat up this November. FOX has unveiled their upcoming schedule, so you can anticipate all through the long weeks of summer reality shows.
FOX staples like House, So You think You Can Dance and Bones will all retain their usual weekday time slots, with Fringe and Lie To Me both getting the renewal nod. The musical comedy Glee will appear on Wednesday, right after the Dance results show.
Friday will be a night of new programming for some viewers, as FOX has shifted their much-moved ‘Til Death into this space with two newbies. Brothers will premiere at the top of the 8 o’clock hour, with Dollhouse rounding out the latter half of the 8-10 block.
