FOX Fall Schedule: 'Dollhouse' Renewed, 'So You Think You Can Dance' Season 6

May 18, 2009

Today FOX officially announced its schedule for the 2009-2010 TV season, and some of the changes are huge.  Aside from the great news that Dollhouse will be coming back for a second season, the other big story is that So You Think You Can Dance, which premieres its fifth season this Thursday, will air in the Fall as well for an immediate sixth season.

The So You Think You Can Dance move is unusual, but helps to balance out the schedule since FOX has American Idol in the Spring.  It also gives FOX the chance to do direct competition with Dancing with the Stars, a show that in recent seasons has taken several professional from former SYTYCD contestants.

FOX Animation Season Finale Previews

May 17, 2009

Cartoons on FOX are coming to an end, sort of.  It's going to be one exciting season finale Sunday for three of the network's acclaimed animated series.  The comedy begins at 8pm with The Simpsons, (then King of the Hill sneaks in with its series finale), followed by Family Guy and finally American Dad.

Tonight's episode of The Simpsons is titled "Coming to Homerica," an obvious parody of the 1988 Eddie Murphy film.  Though the series is nearing the end of its 20th season, we won't be surprised if it would return for another run.

The Simpsons: Preview of Episode 20.9, "Lisa the Drama Queen"

January 25, 2009

It has been more than a month and a half since we were treated to a new episode of The Simpsons, the last one aired on December 7.  Finally, America's favorite animated family returns tonight on our screens with an episode called “Lisa the Drama Queen.”

On the episode, Lisa meets an equally academic and creative new friend Juliet (voiced by guest star Emily Blunt) and together they construct a fantasy world that takes them both a little too far from reality.  Also on this episode, Grammy-nominated pop punk band Fall Out Boy performs a special version of the end credits theme.

TV's Most Unique Families

January 8, 2009

BuddyTV's running a special feature on all of the wonderfully unique families on TV. Within the feature, there's a chance to win a flat-screen TV as well as a couple of Showtime prize packages with DVD sets for Dexter season 2, Penn & Teller: BS! season 5, Californication season 1, The L Word season 5, and The Tudors season 1.

TV families always seem to be more interesting than our own. In fact, they're never normal. At one point or another, we'll all wished to be a part of some imaginary clan. Something deep inside draws us to the craziness, the tenderness or the drama. So we salute all these unique TV families.

'The Simpsons' Animates Famous Puzzle-master

November 16, 2008

Crossword puzzle designer Merl Reagle crosses over to Springfield, as an animated version of himself makes a cameo appearance on The Simpsons.  A fan of the show, Reagle works as a full-time puzzle creator for newspapers across the nation.  Along with New York Times crossword editor Will Shortz's yellow-skinned counterpart, Reagle's Simpson-ized character will be featured in the new episode, “Homer and Lisa Exchange Cross Words.” 

Reagle graduated from Catalina High School and the University of Arizona, and worked as a copy editor for the Arizona Daily Star for three years.  He later decided to take on puzzle-making as his profession, which has brought him much success.  During an interview with the Caliente publication, he revealed just how he managed a spot on the hit Fox television show. 

Producer Predicts Three More Seasons of 'The Simpsons'

November 9, 2008

Homer Simpson and the rest of the residents of Springfield are expected to linger on our TV screens for at least another three seasons.  Though FOX has yet to officially order the multiple-season deal, The Simpsons seems to have a good chance at getting picked up, according to the New York Post.

"The cast is signed for three more years, so I would now say it's about a 90 percent chance we'll come back for at least one of those three," executive producer Al Jean said.  "I actually think it's better than a 50 percent chance we'll do three more years of this at least."
