Question: What is Fox thinking, moving
House to Mondays at 8 pm/ET? I don't know anyone who sits down to watch TV before 9 at the earliest. And with all those "viewer discretion" advisories, do TPTB really think it's a smart move to air the show before the kiddies are tucked in? Are they hoping to boost
Bones with the
American Idol lead-in?
Answer: You're referring to the mid-season game plan announced by Fox before this season started. The likelihood of Fox sticking to that agenda is extremely slim. There's not even a guarantee that Fox will air
Idol in the same Tuesday-Wednesday format of last season, given the way those nights are taking shape. But as things stand now, I'm with you. Moving
House to a new night and earlier time looks like a classic example of fixing something that definitely ain't broke. And to Sandi, who wrote in to wonder about
Prison Break's future come January, because it isn't shown on Fox's projected mid-season schedule at all, I imagine that's one of the adjustments Fox will have to make now that it's clear
Prison Break has found a following and was the first of the fall's new shows to be picked up for a full season. So far, though, no word on where it will air in 2006.
