Keen Eddie Moving to Thursdays

Well, color me completely shocked.

According to this futoncritic article, Fox has decided not to shelve the series when The O.C. takes over the Tuesday 9 PM slot.

It's not airing this week, but starting a week from Thursday (July 24), Keen Eddie will air Thursdays at 8 PM. While it'll still probably take a ratings miracle (it'll now be up against Friends/Scrubs, and The Amazing Race) to bring the show back for another season, this move does increase the chances of all the episodes airing.

This pleases me greatly since I watch nothing on Thursdays anyway (even though it doesn't really matter, I usually replay it and watch it saturday morning no matter what heh)

I am glad that it is still on the air, but that is an impossible time slot. I love KE, but I will be watching Amazing Race and taping it...

FOX can NEVER make a "Good News/Good News" announcement. It ALWAYS seems to be "Good News/Bad News".

Well, the "Good News" is we're not cancelling Keen Eddie. The "Bad News" is we're putting it up against underperformers like Friends...

What do you care, Rogue ... you're not attached to the show, are you?

I don't know how to describe how immensely happy I am that we might be able to see all thirteen eps. {crosses fingers that Fox re-news it for this fall.}

Well, better than nothing. Hopefully that won't be its permanent time slot. "Gilmore Girls" started out against "Friends", but the WB made a very wise decision in moving it to a less competitive time slot.

Good news, if not what I was hoping for. Still some chance is better than no chance. Hopefully this means all thirteen episodes will be shown.

Well that's good news for once. Also I'm thinking ratings for Friends might be down this season, given the fact that last season was pretty lackluster. I'll be surprised if Keen Eddie lasts much longer than midseason, but its good that we will at least see all the recorded episodes. And maybe it'll find a good audience to keep it going.

I wonder if we can start a pre-emptive petition to stop Fox from cancelling this show.

Wait, when did this show actually start being aired? I thought it was starting this fall. Ah well.

Do not underestimate the Thursday ratings powerhouse of WWE Smackdown from 8pm-10pm .

Reminds me of so many other network programming mistakes (ala Newsradio, Action, etc. etc.)

You would think in the Summer they could have found a better time slot. At least we get more Fiona.
