Fall TV Preview
FOX's 2011 Fall TV schedule, night by night
FOX officially unveiled its schedule for its 2011/2012 season with reporters on May 16, and leading off the fall is the three hours' worth of "X Factor" (the new competition import from Simon Cowell) and the long-awaited debut of the big budget "Terra Nova." Since word of pick-ups and cancellations trickled in over the week leading up to the big announcement, there aren't many surprises here -- though the network apparently plans on airing at least a lump of "Bones" episodes before star Emily Deschanel's maternity leave curbs production, leaving room for spin-off "The Finder."
And speaking of Deschanels, Zooey's series, "New Girl," gets a prime post-"Glee" spot on Tuesdays.
Here's the night-by-night breakdown:

A TV show based on Napoleon Dynamite? Huh. Will this fail like My Big Fat Greek Life did?
No Million Dollar Money Drop?
I do wish that FOX would reconsider not keeping Chicago Code. I think it's one of the best shows on TV. I think they could do with a lot less of the reality crap.
I wish Fox would keep Breaking In - the show got better every week and the season finale was hilarious - also, the show made a good companion to Raising Hope when they paired them together on May 17.
