FOX is keeping its summer schedule fairly simple this year, sticking with a few proven franchises for its original content and loading up on reruns.The network will roll out new seasons of "So You Think You Can Dance," "MasterChef" and "Hell's Kitchen" starting in late May. "SYTYCD" will be first up with a two-hour premiere on Thursday, May 26, then settle into its usual Wednesday performance-Thursday results pattern once the audition rounds are over. Nigel Lythgoe and Mary Murphy are returning as full-time judges, and they'll be joined by a rotating group of guest judges. Cat Deeley is back as host.
"MasterChef" begins its second season on Monday, June 6 and will air at 8 p.m. ET Mondays and Tuesdays. You'll be able to get a double dose of Gordon Ramsay on Tuesdays starting July 19, when the latest edition of "Hell's Kitchen" debuts.

I don't think a lack of Fringe is a sure sign that it's being canceled -- it's one of those shows that has to be seen serially, every episode, and there isn't enough time to rerun the entire season during the summer.
I'm still holding out hope, as it's really the only network show I truly care about this year.
Dave, I hope you are right because my heart just sank down to the bottom of my stomach. It is the best show on TV. It makes me think and it engages me. At work we all watch it and then discuss the episodes. It has by far the best writing and cast I have seen in a long time. Keep your fingers crossed.
Another summer of NOT watching fox trash !
I'm hoping beyond hope that Fox's decision to throw Lie to Me into the friday nite deathspot doesn't mean we won't get a fourth season. I just love watching Tim Roth. Lie to Me has become my favorite show on television.
