Seriously? OMG! WTF?

Because of the strikes, the broadcast networks were not able to debut a majority of their shows in the Fall. Therefore, they had to hold them until 2024. Today, Fox announced when their scripted live-action series will debut in March.

Along with the announcement, Fox revealed that Family Guy is moving to Wednesdays at 9:30p after Joel McHale’s Animal Control, which both have The Masked Singer as a lead-on. Fox already announced that Rita Ora will be filling in for Nicole Scherzinger this season.

The Masked Singer has had some shocking people on there, like Dick Van Dyke, Rudy Guilliani, Dog The Bounty Hunter, and so many more. But tonight’s unmasking left me with my jaw on that floor.

That is because it was tennis legend and feminism activist Billie Jean King. I don’t think I have ever seen her do a reality show.

And this was the perfect one to start with. Because tonight was Elton John Night, and she sang Philadelphia Freedom, a song Elton wrote for her.

I hope Elton was as happy to hear her sing it as she was to sing it for all of us! I have so much luv for her and her singing!

Jon Hamm is coming to Fox on January 7th. But you are not going to recognize him. That is because he is playing an animated detective in Grimsburg.

Grimsburg, starring and executive-produced by Emmy Award winner Jon Hamm (Mad Men), centers on Marvin Flute (Hamm), who may be the greatest detective ever to catch a cannibal clown and correctly identify a mid-century modern armoire. But there’s one mystery he still can’t crack — himself. To do that he must return to Grimsburg, a town where everyone has a secret or three, and redeem himself in the eyes of his fellow detectives, his ferociousex-wife and his lovably unstable son.

Grimsburg also stars Erinn Hayes, Alan Tudyk, Kevin Michael Richardson, and Rachel Dratch.

It has been about five months since most of the broadcast shows learned their fate, and today, Welcome to Flatch finally learned if Fox will ask for a third season of the mockumentary series. And the answer is they will not.

“While audience response was not as strong as we had hoped, we were thrilled with the creativity of the enormously talented Jenny Bicks and Paul Feig, as well as the outstanding, dedicated cast and crew they assembled,” Fox said in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter. “We look forward to collaborating with them again in the future and are thankful for all of our partners at Lionsgate, Jenny’s Perkins Street Productions, Paul’s Feigco Entertainment, BBC Studios’ Angie Stephenson, and Charlie Cooper and Daisy May Cooper.”

Personally, I couldn’t even get through an episode of the show. And the ratings were a disaster. So I was surprised when Fox picked it up for a second season. But I am not shocked that they cancelled it. I am just surprised they waited so long to say so long.

We are used to game shows having small groups of people competing against each other for a prize. Most of the time, it is one person going head-to-head with another. But some of the larger competition shows have around 20 people trying to win the big prize.

Fox is going to up the ante with The Floor, hosted by Rob Lowe. They will have 81 people vying for $250,000 over ten weeks. They will each be given a square to stand on, and when their box is called, they will have a battle of the brains. Only one of them will return to a square and the other one will go home. At the end of the game, only one person will be left standing, and they will be a quarter of a million dollars richer.

The Floor debuts in early 2024.

Fox also renewed Lego Masters for a fifth season.
