Seriously, why is Fox so scared to try anything different for Tuesdays? Give the post Idol spot to someone else!

Or move Idol someplace else. LEAVE MY HOUSE ALONE!

Anyway, bye Bones! My parents love you, you will be sorely missed once you get canceled because you get moved to friday.

Is swearing allowed at 10 o clock on the major networks in America?

Not generally. I think ER once said "shit."

Then Kitchen Nightmares is DOOMED!

The British show's more notable for Ramsay's raging temper and prolific swearing than anything else.

Because there really isn't anywhere good to move House to. Wednesdays have Idol, Mondays have 24, Thursdays are overcrowded enough already, and Fridays and Saturdays speak for themselves. Sunday MIGHT work, especially since DH is on the down this spring, but Fox is kinda phobic to that much change.

I'm sure they'll just bleep them all out. Constant bleeping can sometimes be more entertaining than the actual curse words.

I can't believe you don't allow swearing at 10 o' clock? What's a good 'fuck' between adults?

What's the difference between Kitchen Nightmares and Hell's Kitchen? :unsure:

Millions of dollars in FCC fines, that's what it is. Hell, you can't even have twentysomethings playing half-naked teens in an orgy without the Parents Television Council forcing a fine of $3.7 million

Yeah, we're really prudish. Best example:

The last paragraph is the best part.

That's insane. I mean, at least with the Superbowl you can understand because kids might still be up. But there should be a watershed hour where swearing and nudity are allowed.

I don't recall, but did the actual schedule released have Bones on Fridays?

It had it on Fridays in midseason, just like they do now.

I liked the proposed schedule where House got moved to Sundays better. It showed more creativity.

NYPD Blue featured a lot of asses. Wasn't that a network show? What, they didn't mind getting fined? I don't understand. You can have someone showing his ass, but you can't say fuck? But saying bitch is allowed? It really makes no sense.

Once and Again had some ass in their day too :happy:

I think it's utterly ridiculous how you can't say fuck but 8pm comedies and dramedies use the word bitch as often as addicts pop pills. It's so messed up.

FOX's schedule is pretty disappointing. Although yes I don't want it to succeed, I can't believe how unimaginative and stupid they are. Use House to ground something else!!!

Also... how on earth did a Patricia Heaton/Kelsey Grammer comedy end up on FOX? That sounds like CBS or NBC gold. It just doesn't fit in with my image of FOX because it actually sounds like something that might work. :tongue:

The list of approved words and such is very weird. You can say ass, but you can't say asshole. You can't say dick if it in anyway refers to a dick. Rob Thomas told some fun stories about the crazy censors over at CBS. There was one episode in the first season where someone was filmed eating a popsicle in an erotic fashion. It was originally supposed to be a banana, but the censors wouldn't allow it. And, what they were allowed to do with a popsicle was worse than they wanted to do with a banana. Of course, these were also the people who somehow completely missed Jason Dohring and Ryan Hanson throwing up shockers.

Canterbury's Law sounds interesting... if only because the title is a bit of a rip off of Grey's Anatomy. No doubt there'll be a slew of sexy male stars each nicknamed by fans after burger king meals.
