FOX is announcing premiere dates of new and returning series as well as revisions to its 2009-2010 midseason schedule. FOX also has ordered a full season of the sophomore drama Lie To Me.
January starts off on a high note when the ninth season of American Idol, television’s No. 1 series, begins with a two-night premiere Tuesday, Jan. 12 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) and Wednesday, Jan. 13 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT). Immediately following American Idol on Jan. 13 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT), FOX unveils the not-to-be-missed series debut of OUR LITTLE GENIUS, a new unscripted series that features America’s most gifted kids as they are tested with some of the most challenging and difficult questions that only a remarkable little genius could answer.
A special extended primetime event on Sunday, Jan. 17 kicks off with the NFC DIVISIONAL PLAYOFF (4:00 PM-CC ET live/1:00 PM-CC PT live), which leads into the explosive series preview of Human Target (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT), the new full-throttle, action-packed drama about a unique private contractor (Mark Valley) who will stop at nothing – even if it means becoming a Human Target – to save his clients. The special primetime event concludes with the first installment of the pulse-pounding two-night, four-hour premiere of 24 (9:00-11:00 PM ET/PT). The season premiere of 24 clocks in for two more hours of action Monday, Jan. 18 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT), and the season premiere of Human Target airs Wednesday, Jan. 20 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) following American Idol (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT).
On Sunday, Jan. 10, FOX presents a special Simpsons event beginning with the animated series’ milestone 450th episode, “Once Upon A Time in Springfield” (8:00-8:30 PM ET/PT), in which BART (Nancy Cartwright) and MILHOUSE (Pamela Hayden) try to help KRUSTY (Dan Castellaneta) regain his popularity after network executives force him to restructure the format of his television show by hiring a female sidekick, PRINCESS PENELOPE (guest voice Anne Hathaway). Then, Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Morgan Spurlock (“Super Size Me,” “30 Days”) will present The Simpsons 20th Anniversary Special: in 3-D! on Ice! (8:30-9:30 PM ET/PT). The documentary special examines the global phenomenon that is THE Simpsons and serves as the momentous conclusion to the “Best. 20 Years. Ever.,” a year-long global celebration of THE Simpsons that launched in January 2009.
Chef Gordon Ramsay steps out of his own kitchen to serve up a new season of Kitchen Nightmares on Friday, Jan. 29 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT). Each week, Chef Ramsay will try to help turn around some of the most unsanitary and unsuccessful restaurants in New York, New Jersey, Florida and California on the verge of closing their doors forever.
PAST LIFE, a new drama series inspired by the book “The Reincarnationist” about detectives who investigate the world of the unexplained, will bow with a two-hour series premiere Thursday, Feb. 11 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) and will make its time period premiere Thursday, Feb. 18 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT).
SONS OF TUCSON, the new family comedy from Emmy Award winner Todd Holland (“Wonderfalls”) about three young brothers who hire a charming, wayward schemer to stand in as their father when their real one goes to prison, debuts Sunday, March 14 (8:30-9:00 PM ET/PT).
American Idol sings on Tuesdays (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) when it makes its time period premiere Jan. 19 followed by the time period premiere of OUR LITTLE GENIUS (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT), and 24 syncs up for its time period premiere Monday, Jan. 25 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT).
After its fall finale Wednesday, Dec. 9 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT), Glee returns from its interlude with a score of all-new episodes on a new night beginning Tuesday, April 13 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT). FRINGE delves into its winter finale Thursday, Feb. 4 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) and then resurfaces with new cases beginning Thursday, April 1 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT). Joss Whedon’s DOLLHOUSE goes out with a bang with its series finale Friday, Jan. 22 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT).
[EDITOR’S NOTE 1: Lie To Me will return to the schedule in the late spring, and ‘TIL DEATH will return to the schedule at a later date.]
[EDITOR’S NOTE 2: The Cleveland Show takes over the timeslot previously held by American Dad, which will return to the schedule at a later date.]
[EDITOR’S NOTE 3: THE Simpsons milestone 450th episode and The Simpsons 20th Anniversary Special: in 3-D! on Ice! special, which were previously announced to air Thursday, Jan. 14, are now scheduled for Sunday, Jan. 10.]
Wow…lame.
Glee not intill April what the hell
Sons in March? Wow. I won’t even bother with Past Life or Human Target.
Human Target kinda looks good
Oh poor Til Death left out of the schedule again at least Dollhouse had an airdate with its series finale.
I’m surprised Our Little Genius is getting the post AI slot, maybe Lie to Me will replace that if that show does not do well (they could put that show on Fridays if it tanks)
Interesting.
I like debuting Human Target with 24 and out of an NFC game, couple that with the Idol lead-in and Fox is putting a lot into getting Human Target off the ground, its almost as if those rumours that 24 is done and Human Target is its chosen successor are true! Moving Glee to Tuesday nights and opposite Lost will either work exceptionally well or backfire horribly. It is every inch counter programming for Lost though so there is some logic to that move.
Elsewhere its all pretty standard, not sure about this Our Little Genius show and there does seem to be unholy amount of show moving going on with this schedule.
Our Little Genius sounds like crap. I can’t believe I watch more shows on CW.
Oh I just noticed Sit Down Shut Up is still there, I thought all the episodes have already aired on that slot
Forg, on the plus side, Bill gets to hold out hope again for his dream of a July 4 ‘Til Death Marathon!
Chris, Glee was always scheduled for a long hiatus as the episodes have a longer production time I’m not sure Fox could bring it back much earlier even if they had the space.
What gets me is that they have no idea where they’re putting Lie To Me or when it’ll even air. Clearly its a replacement show for when something (all eyes on Past Life and Human Target) bombs.
what the hell, to celebrate 20 years of the simpsons they cant even have a entire sunday dedicated to them (cleveland at 9:30) while seth douchebag macfarlene got an entire sunday a few weeks ago for doing nothing
last episode of glee = december 9th
first new episode after hiatus = april 13th
are you flipping kidding me!? I thought there were 9 new episodes to air after it comes back from hiatus.. that puts it at finishing on june 8th. which makes no sense?
Robert, true, the chances for that went up a notch
So I think schedule makes the cancellation of Brothers official (or was there a press release for that I missed)
Forg – oh, wow. Yeah, guess Brothers is toast. Poor ‘Til Death…I actually like that show.
no press release that I remember, though they left a little wiggle room by not saying anything about Sundays 7p-8p at all (I assume it will be repeats, but we’ll see)
What the hell?!?! What about Hells Kitchen?
A post Idol slot to Our Little Genius? Seriously? Why would they give the plum post Idol spot to a non scripted show with kids?
Plus Glee and Idol would fit perfectly and they are only going to do it for 6 or 7 weeks? why?
I think Hells Kitchen is going to run in the summer and into the fall like it did this year. I didn’t think it was going to air this spring/winter.
Glee doesn’t return until April? That doesn’t sound too good…
Tuesday are crap on Fox
