FOX 2011-12 schedule: 'Terra Nova, 'X Factor' lead new fall lineup

terra-nova-fox.jpgFOX is kicking off the 2011-12 television season with new shows "The X Factor," "Terra Nova," a pair of comedies titled "New Girl" and "I Hate My Teenage Daughter," both of which are still working titles and a new addition to its Animation Domination lineup with "Allen Gregory."

For midseason, "American Idol" is back with a special premiere following the NFC Championship game. New dramas for midseason include "Alcatraz" and "The Finder," while "Glee" will take a spring hiatus for new comedies "Family Album" (staring "Glee's" Mike O'Malley) or "Little in Common" with Rob Corddry and Animation Domination will add "Napoleon Dynamite" to the Sunday lineup.

"24" star Kiefer Sutherland is also returning to FOX in "Touch," which centers on the relationship between a single father and his 11-year-old son with special needs. Their relationship and their lives take an extraordinary turn when the gifted son begins to make connections in his life and around the world. Production on "Touch" begins this summer. There is no word yet on where it will be scheduled for FOX.

Zap2it Elite Sheet Must Reads from the Web's In-Crowd
 

The fall lineup for fox looks great. Terra will be a hit. Can't Wait!

So if their schedule pulls Terra Nova at midseason, does that mean it doesn't have a full 22-episode season order?

It doesn't matter what Fox's Fall
line up consists of I won't be watching anything on Fox since they cancelled Human Target.....

I just want to know Why House. He is the rudist man around. I would figure even mean people would get tire of it after a while.

American Dad until midseason only? That sucks.

You say Terra Nova and X-Factor lead Fox lineup. Sorta scary and sad

I echo Mary Zuck's comment. FOX can kiss my backside. No Human Target, no more FOX for me.

Am still hoping the news last week that Breaking In may still be retained happens. Obviously that will depend on tomorrow's airing of the season finale after Glee and Raising Hope.
And am mixed on Fox only showing America's Most Wanted as specials. A staple on Saturday night for me.

Too bad they're cancelling Chicago Code. I really enjoyed that show and it had so many ways it could go to keep us interested. I've come to the conclusion that the viewers bear no weight in the decisions the networks make. They do as they please!

Thanks Fox for cancelling all your good shows you know Chicago Code, Human Target, and Lie to Me. Now that you have nothing on except for Fringe and I am sure that'll be cancelled next season I have no interest in watching any of your shows new or old. Thanks for giving me my free time back. Please can you go ahead do in Fringe too, I mean hell you already gave it the death sentence friday night slot. Take it off already so I can call my cable company and remove your channel from my box. Hmm, I wonder if that would save me any money.
