Thanks to Darkness for the heads up.
Spin of the day award to NBC: "Mr Robinson" + "The Carmichael Show" will burn through their six episode seasons in 3 weeks each. 1/2
— Joe Adalian (@TVMoJoe) July 24, 2015"Mr Robinson" still bows Aug 5, but will air 2 eps each Wed. for 3 weeks. "The Carmichael Show" now opens Aug 26, with 2-2-2 air pattern.2/2
— Joe Adalian (@TVMoJoe) July 24, 2015From NBC release: Scheduling will allow "audiences a chance to fully engage with" the new shows. Yup.
— Joe Adalian (@TVMoJoe) July 24, 2015With all due respect to the folks at NBC, Fox gets what NBC doesn't: Even when you think a show will probably fail, you give it a real shot.
— Joe Adalian (@TVMoJoe) July 24, 2015Many people inside Fox were pretty sure both LAST MAN ON EARTH *and* WAYWARD PINES were DOA, or close to it. Net gave them both big pushes.
— Joe Adalian (@TVMoJoe) July 24, 2015To me, that strategy makes sense even if the show still fails: It sends a message to talent that you will give them a shot. You'll fight.
— Joe Adalian (@TVMoJoe) July 24, 2015I should clarify: Fox under its current leadership is actually giving shows a shot. Past execs...not so much. #Enlisted (h/t @margeincharge)

I agree with Joe, this is quite ridiculous
ReplyDeleteWe all know these shows were going to flop, might as well get them off the air as soon as possible.
ReplyDeleteOriginal schedule was much better. Idiotic move.
ReplyDeleteOh NBC, you can't spin this around. I agree with Joe 100%
ReplyDeleteDick move,screw off nbc.
