You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

According to thefutoncritic Fox has announced that On the Lot will be taking the Monday at 8 timeslot as of May 28th. I think that about 7 episodes of Drive will have aired by then.

Does anyone know what timeslot it might move to or is the situation as we say, fluid?

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

As far as I know On The Lot is going out Tuesday 22nd May, Tamara. It's possible they are premiering it, then moving it to Drive's place, or that Fox have announced it wrong.

It premieres on Tuesday 22nd May and then moves to 8pm on Mondays.

The info could be incorrect, but it seems on the up and up to me.

Ah, they have the main show AND a box office results show -- didn't realise. Yep, the main show has moved from the previous announcement to take Drive's place then. Grr arrgh. What's another slot for TV's hit Drive, then?

ETA: The logic could be that Monday's will get crowded for drama by a few months in.

It's not that I'm the only one, it's that I'm the honest one.

Hasn't On the Lot already been pushed back in the schedule at least once or am I remembering stuff that isn't true?

ETA: Ignore this questions; Kevin's just filled me in on the history of the show elsewhere.

When does 24 finish for the season? I know it started on the later side of the year, but they also haven't had any hiatuses. Hiati?

Jackal makes an excellent point to me that the TV season is effectively over by then. So they move it pretty much where they want. It's a bit like The Inside, except without 3 weeks of promo -- this time they have two months of episodes in advance of the move.

Frankenbuddha, 24 ends its season with a two hour ep on Monday May 21st.

The last couple years 24 has played straight thru without breaks. That is one reason they start it in Jan.

Frankenbuddha, 24 ends its season with a two hour ep on Monday May 21st.

So TV's hit DRIVE could theoretically drop into that slot on the 28th.

Apparently, there's a two-hour On the Lot there May 28. June 4, that slot goes to Hell's Kitchen.
