Oil - Time Slot Revealed?

May 11, 2015

Share on Reddit

Thanks to darkness for the heads up.

On, ABC's website, the time slot for Oil (form. Boom) is listed as Sundays at 9/8c in the fall. See screenshot below.

This is likely true, but we can't be sure until ABC officially announces their fall schedule tomorrow.

  1. Most fitting time slot i could imagine for it

    ReplyDelete
  2. Boom sounded better.

    ReplyDelete
  3. It could pair well with OUAT, good time slot, although I expected Kings and Prophets there.

    ReplyDelete
  4. Oil, sat in America? This must be a joke. Set it to Norway ABC, or i'll boycott.



    :)

  5. Will they stop changing the names already... I thought that was a docu fiction about petrol.

    ReplyDelete
  6. Oil? That's such a generic title. And I really can't see it finding an audience on Sundays. It'll get lost in the crowd.

    ReplyDelete
  7. hope it's true. oil is the new drama i absolutely wanna watch (along with of kings and prophets), i was sure i would have to wait till midseason so please make it happen

    ReplyDelete
  8. boom was a better title but there's already boom! on fox this summer.
    if abc really goes with once upon a time, oil and nashville on sundays then i would be very busy on monday morning catching up

    ReplyDelete
  9. I quite like the rename, even if it is a bit on the nose! I could see this pairing well with Nashville at 10pm, if that's where it's headed.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Ugh, I was hoping S&L would stay in the slot and air in the fall. Oil (bad title BTW) sounds boring as hell.

    ReplyDelete
  11. It was already taken.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Still I like OIL in the poster !
    And I think the simplicity works for this

    ReplyDelete
  13. Terrible title... even Boom was better.

    ReplyDelete
  14. I feel like OUAT/Oil/Nashville could really work. If they promote Oil well, it could get great numbers and maybe even help Nashville, since i think they could be compatible

    ReplyDelete
  15. Boom was already taken so they had to change it.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Ugh, I know right, imagine the promos. "All New Oil, next Sunday at 9|8c on ABC." Sounds like something the belongs on the Food Network.

    ReplyDelete
  17. The title may be ugly, but the poster isn't at all. Really intrigued about this one.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Person A to B: "Hey did you watch Oil last night".
    Person C who has no idea what Oil actually is looks at them like "???"

    ReplyDelete
  19. Many people TV sites seemed to have picked it up now.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Awful title.
    But I have to admit it fits well with OUAT ^^
    OUAT & OIL

    ReplyDelete
  21. They already erased it, not only date, but there is no show named Oil on the site

    ReplyDelete
  22. Expected, I was refreshing just to see when they pull the leak.

    ReplyDelete
  23. S&L doesn't even have a cast. I doubt it could be ready for the fall.

    ReplyDelete
  24. More like:
    A: Did you watch Oil last night?
    B: Oil? What?
    C: What?

    ReplyDelete
  25. I'm not sure if any of the bridge series are going to be in the Fall tbh.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Probably mid season.

    ReplyDelete
  27. I'm expecting a lot of articles with comments including "Crude" or "Fracking" in the coming days...


    They just love the one word titles though... Ugh.

    ReplyDelete
  28. They have plenty of time to cast the new roles. Need I remind you that OUATIW didn't have a cast too and it still got a fall slot.

    ReplyDelete
  29. That actually doesn't sound that bad. I would have taken that over oil.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Yeah, this would've sounded better as a documentary or something, not as an actual tv show.

    ReplyDelete
  31. wtf is this about. don't tell me Texas.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Billy and Cody Lefever dream of a new life beyond their working class roots and move to “The Bakken” in North Dakota, booming after the biggest oil discovery in American history. They’re soon pitted against a ruthless tycoon who forces them to bet big and put everything on the line, including their marriage.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Still listed here but the link to the show page doesn't work. http://abc.go.com/new-shows

    ReplyDelete
  34. Oil revolution in America.

    ReplyDelete
  35. That name change sucks! I think Boom was better, and would even prefer American Boom or American Oil. Anyway, Sundays at 9 is a hard time slot and I'm not sure it's gonna work there. It might bomb hard or maybe it booms. But I'm still looking forward to the show!

    ReplyDelete
  36. I think it is a hard slot but a soap is the perfect counter programming option against everything that is going on elsewhere, IMO. It won't be an easy job but it is possible.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Oh really? I didn't know that about Wonderland. I stand corrected then.

    ReplyDelete
  38. And if it bombs, I am hoping we get S&L early!

    ReplyDelete
  39. Hopefully not. That would mean S&L would have to go up against award seasons in Januay and February which would be horrible for the show!

    ReplyDelete
  40. Hmm, didn't think off that. That's why I was hoping it would get a fall slot

    ReplyDelete
  41. I am hoping it airs on January on Thursdays.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Oil? Sounds awful. Maybe if they add another word...

    ReplyDelete
  43. That could be risky.

    ReplyDelete
  44. American Oil!

    ReplyDelete
  45. Sundays in the spring are much harder than Thursdays in the winter and it already passed this test. But it needs a buzzy cast again

    ReplyDelete
  46. Well maybe it could work. There are not a lot of other options given that the show isn't really compatible with anything on ABC.

    ReplyDelete
  47. I would rather have Oil on Weds at 10 and The Catch on Sun at 9.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Yeah much better....

    Hmm... some other possibilities...

    Dakota Boom?
    Boom Town?
    Oil Rush?
    Crude Intentions?
    Hot Springs?
    Black Gold?
    Slippery Business?
    Rigged?
    Frack This?

    ReplyDelete
  49. I'm with omabin that Thursdays might be better, but we shall see.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Oil Rush or Crude Intentions sound good. The latter sounds a bit scandalous and very ABC

    ReplyDelete
  51. I agree with you Omabin. Secrets and Lies will pursue a film actor/actress (or 2) to replace Ryan Philippe. The writers will likely need to have more than one episode written to secure a big name for season 2. If they are smart they will write the entire 10 episode season before production begins. All of that takes time, I dont see it being ready by September.

    ReplyDelete
  52. The Catch is almost for sure going to be Thursdays at 10 in spring when Murder ends.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Ironically, it is compatible with Nashville probably, but that show is a ratings dud. Still, couldn't hurt having it around.

    ReplyDelete
  54. Crude Intentions is pure gold! They should hire you for making titles.

  55. So recent history? if so Pass.

    ReplyDelete
  56. I guess at the very least they can use it as a tagline...
    I only ask for 1% of revenue XD

    ReplyDelete
  57. Yes.
    Ironically the Dakota oil boom is actually on the bust side of things now...

    ReplyDelete
  58. I feel like The Family is a better replacement for HTGAWM. I know, The Catch is about another strong woman and stuff like Scandal and HTGAWM, but The Family seems to have the side of OMG moments and drama/darkness of Scandal and HTGAWM, which to me is the best part of both shows. Like, how many twist can they do in The Catch? It does seem like they'll go deeper than just the ex-husband going after the main character, but I like The Family's premise more.

    ReplyDelete
  59. So you think you can dig

    ReplyDelete
  60. I thought The Family would be good for the Wednesday lineup at 10, the could finally promote a full conducive family night lineup and move Nashville to Sundays at 10.

    ReplyDelete
  61. So after OUAT?

    ReplyDelete
  62. S&L need to air after Scandal in next spring.

    ReplyDelete
  63. What kind of name is oil lol. Boom town would've been better lol

    ReplyDelete
  64. Oil Rush sounds exciting. The show sounds like a soup. I might watch the pilot, but the name has the potential to turn viewers off.

    ReplyDelete
  65. There was another show that went by that name, CBS' Boomtown starring Grant Show.

    ReplyDelete
  66. Oil? Blegh. Sundays @ 9 eh? So sacrificial lamb right out of the gate. Good I guess.

    ReplyDelete
  67. Not fan of the title change. I get wanting to keep it simple, but Oil just sounds silly... But I do appreciate how they made it fit in the graphic at least.

    Also not sure about the timeslot. I think it might be a good fit with Nashville, but I feel it'll be too different for the OUaT audience.

    ReplyDelete
  68. This was "Untitled Pate & Fishburne Project" right?

    ReplyDelete
  69. S&L is pretty much certain to succeed in the spring, but a new show is not.

    ReplyDelete
  70. That could have put a space between "Boom" and "Town"
