It's hard to judge Fox too harshly when they have so many holes, despite having fewer hours than the other major networks. But...
Making History is their only new show I care about, and it has the only-good-in-the-fall Simpsons lead-in, so. Hmm. I guess I'll watch nothing on Fox this fall.
Empire STILL at 9 PM, and not even paired with Star? Okay then.
Scream Queens still getting Tuesdays during the fall? Okay then. You weren't too scared to put Glee on Fridays...
At least Mondays look good-for-Fox. Gotham/Lucifer has been a decent pairing.
I'm so pissed at NBC for what they're doing with Cruel Intentions. Like if they dont' wanna pick this up, pass up on it so another network could buy it. I don't want them to redevelop it or wait for the next summer with it because Gellar might leave...
HOW is FOX passing on using the MLB season to promote Pitch?! That makes no sense at all.
Tuesdays will be a disaster again. No moves to fix the schedule in the fall. Only filling holes will not save them.
Ugh why does Abigail Spencer waste her talent with sh*tty projects like this? Hopefully it will raise her profile and will get canceled after 13 to 18 episodes.
Just watched the NBC trailers and I guess i'll have to check out all three shows. I noticed a nod to my city in The Happy Place too underneath Doug Forcett's name.
YASSSS i called it. i did think Code Black would get renewed and not Limitless!! Code Black was insanely steady and even grew a bit during the season, and with better scripts, it could grow in the second season too!
The other 2 are probably more syndication-friendly.
And Limitless was trending poorly in the ratings towards the end.
1.1/1.3/1.1/1.1/1.1 Limitless
1.3/1.2/1.3/1.0/1.2 Code Black
1.5/1.3/1.2/1.2/1.1 Beyond Borders
The BB high number was cuz SVU was off for the week, Code Black's low was cuz Criminal Minds was off for the week, Limitless's high was cuz of Chicago PD being off for the week.
Prison Break wow what a change. Very...noisy.
24 wow what original. Also noisy.
Lethal Weapon Oh another loud cop show. I see Ted from Mad Men tho.
Exorcist Poor acting, and cheesy.
Son of Zorn Headache inducing.
Rocky Horror Not enough to judge; seems unnecessary.
Pitch I hate baseball. Also seems a bit too family-y.
APB Oh another cop show. The main guy is annoying.
Shots Fired Oh another cop show. It’s very...timely.
Mick I never like family comedies. This one looks esp bad.
Star Poor acting, music, and production values. Could’ve used an Empire lead-in.
Making History Disappointing. Super unfunny, and Blair doesn’t do much. Dumb too.
The only one I was interested in looks like a miss. Fox can fall down a sewer again.
Shots fired looks actually fantastic I love the twist they are pulling with the story
The mick looks cute. If they first few episodes are good I will keep watching.
The Exorcist...I'm kinda excited for not going to lie just to see if its gonna break any ground for network tv
Making history was a little too tryhard for my taste and I was so excited for it too.
APB looks boring as ****.
Pitch is gonna be the feelgood show and I think its great alternative programming and do really well with family bonding as its not too feminine but also not too masculine.
Star looks...better than Empire and way less tryhard. But Lee Daniels needs to stop trying to be Tyler Perry 2.0.
Son of Zorn is weak. It seems Chris and Phil are burning out from all their projects.

NBC
Good Place looks so good. Watched the trailer in the office and everyone was laughing. Will be a hit.
Timeless has a Eureka/Warehouse 13 vibe which is gonna be helpful because they both are cult classics. I can't wait to see it still.
This is us has that parenthood feeling to it...
I didn't get to see the trailer when it leaked but I heard Emerald City looked ****ing amazeballs and is GOT meets Oz.
I like The Mick a lot and Son of Zorn didn't seem terrible either. Maybe it's because I like Cheryl Hines a lot.
On the drama side, I don't understand why they put in 3 different cop shows . Star doesn't seem bad, and neither does Pitch, but I'm not sure if I'll watch any new dramas on FOX
