https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1V7u8Jdo63A Fox announced their fall schedule today, but the bigger news is about their midseason shows.
The network knows not to mess with a good thing, so Empire will stay put on Wednesdays at 9p. The biggest show on television in decades will air 18 episodes next season and their season will be split in two.
Twosday, aka Tuesdays, will be all about the laughs. In the fall, they will make an ’80s girl have several wet dreams by pairing John Stamos and Rob Lowe comedies back to back. Then she will scream with Scream Girls. When Ryan Murphy’s latest addiction ends, New Girl returns for an uninterrupted season.
The X-Files won’t be back until the New Year. After a Sunday debut on January 24th, the show movies to Mondays.
The hugest news from the network is that American Idol will be ending next year.
At first glance, I think Fox will have a disastrous Fall but a triumph Spring.

On Monday we find out what the networks have planned for next season and today we found out some more shows that won’t be included on their schedules.
NBC pulled the plug on Constantine, About a Boy, Marry Me, State of Affairs and One Big Happy. I knew that NBC wasn’t going to move forward with Constantine, I was just hoping it would’ve had a new home by now. Some are saying The CW, but I am hoping for Syfy instead.
Over at Fox since Following lost its following and Backstrom never had one, they won’t be following Empire to the 2015-2016 season. Too bad they can’t cancel Wayward Pines today too.
Finally, CBS ended the ratings battle for Battle Creek, The McCarthys and Stalker.
Which show are you most upset to lose?

The good news is that The CW picked up iZombie for a second season, the bad news is Fox cancelled the low rated comedy The Mindy Project.
Before you few fans of The Mindy Project go all Zombie, Hulu might pick it up for two more seasons. Personally, I never got Mindy Kaling’s show, so I am fine with the show opening up some space for a new comedy on Fox. How do you feel about the cancellation?
When it comes to iZombie, this was a really brainy decision on The CW’s part. This show is fun and perfect for all ages. Although the pickup makes it is even harder for a new show to get picked up by the network next week. You know, since Hart of Dixie looks to be the only show that won’t be back next season. Kind of explains why CBS wasn’t able to get Supergirl to fly over to its sister network and its staying put. That’s right CBS officially picked up Supergirl!
Believe it or not, Fresh Off the Boat is already airing its season finale on ABC tonight at 8p.
Things have been going so well for The Huangs that Jessica (Constance Wu) and Louis (Randall Park) have been asked to join the local country club. When someone tells them that the couple they forget that they are Chinese, Jessica goes back to her roots and thinks the family should do the same so they don’t forget where they came from. That means the boys go to Chinese school, Jessica is only serving Chinese foods and Louis can’t open a second restaurant.
Will her plan work or will they rebel against her? You have to watch this sweet season finale to find out.
Also at 8p on Fox, someone is forced to leave Hell’s Kitchen in the crappiest possible way. The day starts off normally for the 11 contestants, but then one of them goes into bathroom and things change. That person screams in pain, so much so Gordon Ramsay tells them that they can’t continue on with the competition. What causes the pain, you will just have to tune in to find out. Also to find out if their departure means that no one will go home after another disastrous dinner service.

Also on Fox, but at 9:30p Weird Loners is back with another hilarious episode.
Eric (Nate Torrence) is on a human chess team, and he could be promoted to Rook. In order to get the promotion, he needs to get his next door neighbor Caryn (Becki Newton) to date the man who currently holds the position. She agrees to go on the date, but it is a disaster. Is it so much of a disaster that he will not get to move up to a Rook?
While they are playing Chess, Stosh (Zachary Knighton) sees an opportunity with Zara’s (Meera Rohit Kumbhani) artwork, so he enters her in art contest. Now the two of them are coming up with her persona for her to win. How overboard will they go? You just have to see it to believe it.
I don’t know why people aren’t watching Weird Loners, it seriously Fox’s most endearing comedy in a really long time. Please check it tonight, once you do I am sure you will be as hooked as I am!

Finally, at 10p on Esquire, its time The Runner Up, one of the most important shows on television during this political season. On this episode, Gay marriages are now allowed in North Carolina. Everyone wants to know Clay Aiken’s opinion on it and he isn’t saying much. He explains that he is for it as a gay man, but does not want that to define him while he is running for US Congress. He knows it is more important for him to get elected, and help people once he has job. It might not make sense the way I am typing it, but it will when you watch the show.
Even though Clay’s campaign manager tells him the most important thing to do is raise money for the campaign, he decides to take his message on the road with a bus tour. He thinks it is more important to talk to the people directly than ask for money.
On one of his stops, he will go to a Tea Party gathering. There are so many things he says to the voters there that makes me wish I could vote for him.
So much of what Clay says in each episode, proves what is wrong with our current elected officials. So many people and candidates are just about their political parties that they are not meeting in the middle. Clay wishes there are moderates in office and I am with him.
It isn’t only his wish that people weren’t only defined by their Political Party that makes me think this show should be shown in all schools, it is all the bullcrap that goes into to running for office. This show shows you it is more about the money than why you are running. And you wonder why DC is so f*cked up?
So tune for an eye opening look at how political campaigns are run these days, and see how truly horrifying it is. Remember we are less than 9 months away from the first Presidential Primary, and we should see what the candidates are doing to prep for the election. Hopefully this show will make people think about it so much so that we will be asking for a change! Let’s be honest, there needs to be one and it needs to happen yesterday.

Last week on The Last Man on Earth, Carol (Kristen Schaal) gave Phil Miller (Will Forte) his walking papers and tonight at 9:30p on Fox they have to tell the other survivors the news. The others react in such a way that Phil decides it’s time to book it out of there. He’s want to move across the country to Tampa. Phil needs to let any other people on Earth know where’s he’s headed to, so he leaves his message on a billboard. Only problem is the ladder falls down and he’s trapped up there. Alone with the Phoenix sun blazing down on him, he passes out. When he awakes he meets Phil Miller and life will never be the same for him or for anyone around him.
Just when I was starting to tire of The Last Man on Earth, tonight’s episode reawakens my love for the show. You will just have to tune in to see why this episode is so good.
