FOX only programs 15 hours each week and Saturdays will be Pac-12 Football and MLB Playoffs.Above is 16 hours of weekly programming to fill the 13 hours available, Sunday - Friday.
During the Fall, FOX should do also last fall and only air 4 of the 5 of the Animated comedies. FRINGE is only 13 episodes, so it could be a mid-season premiere for the final season. Of the 2011-12 season series not yet canceled or renewed, NAPOLEON DYNAMITE may have the best chance for another season. COPS is still alive, so it could sneak in on Fridays when FRINGE is not airing.
