On Monday, Fox announced its Fall schedule and today they announced that they are already making changes to it. It looked like Pitch struck out and was going to be sent to Spring Training, but now the drama about the first female baseball player will debut in the Fall. The show takes over Bones’ Thursday at 9p slot in the Fall and the concluding procedural will now come back in the New Year at that time.
Pitch was supposed to air on Tuesdays at 9p in 2017, but since it moved up that means that Prison Break will now be held up at that time.
I get why Pitch is now debuting earlier in the season, Fox airs the Playoff and World Series and its getting a lot of positive buzz, but I wish they would’ve let Bones keep its slot and slated Scream Queens for the Spring. Now, that I think about it, it works out better for Bones because it won’t be up against Thursday Night Football on CBS and NBC.

All I can say about Fox‘s Fall schedules is that I am glad I have a DVR. Without I would never know when the shows that I watch are on.

NBC had a great comedy with Undateable, but they just didn’t know how to promote it. They tried to by making it live, but then buried it on Fridays. The show just never had the support it needed. One season, it’s launched in the summer, then the next midseaon and finally the fall. People just didn’t know when to tune in because there was no consistency and no other strong sitcoms to pair it up with.
I am sure that everyone, who worked on the show, will land on their feet. I will just miss them. Someone give Bill Lawrence another show ASAP because he is the most caring Executive Producer out there who really cares about his show and the show’s fan. That and he knows humor!
Although, Lawrence just Tweeted that he will be shopping the show around and I pray someone buys it.
Undateable wasn’t the only show NBC broke up with today. They are no longer seeing Heartbeat, Crowded, Telenovela and Game of Silence. Heartbeat is their biggest loss of that bunch, another great show that was on the wrong network.
Talking about other networks. While ABC listened to the outraged fans and cancelled Castle after they lost one of the people who made up the show’s duo, Fox didn’t. Sleepy Hollow was renewed for a fourth season, even though the viewers were pissed that they killed off Nicole Beharie. That show, more than Castle, was built on the chemistry of the leads. Without that, the show will be deader than the Headless Horseman. I can’t wait to see how horrific the ratings will be for it.
Prince very rarely appeared on television, let alone a sitcom. But the late singer was a fan of New Girl, and he made a guest appearance on it. The writers wrote a party scene for him, and they invited a few celebrities to be on that episode. Two of the celebrities they asked were Kris Jenner and Khloe Kardashian, but wait you don’t remember seeing them on that episode?
Zooey Deschanel explained why we didn’t see them to Conan O’Brien on his TBS show yesterday. The adorkable actress said that on the day of Prince’s taping, she was studying her lines when a PA came in and frantically asked for the all scripts and call sheets. Then when she went outside she saw that PA burning all of the papers she just took. Turns out, when Prince’s people asked which celebrities were going to be on the show, Deschanel says that they said they hope it isn’t a Kardashian. Thus, why there was no evidence of them ever being on that special episode.
We all know that Prince was a genius, this is just further proof of that.

On the last episode of The Last Man on Earth, we got some happy news. Carol (Kristen Schaal) and Tandy (Will Forte) are expecting their first child together. Tonight at 9:30p on Fox, we get some sad news. The virus is back which means we finally learn more about it. By the end of the episode it will claim one victim. To find who has it and who dies, you will have tune in. Make sure you have the tissues ready because there will also be tears. A lot of aughs too, but also some tears.
