Fox Unveils Strike-Proof Fall Schedule With Reality-Heavy Plan; ‘Lego Masters’ Moves To Thursday, ‘Kitchen Nightmares’ Returns On Mondays
deadline.comFox has finally unveiled its fall schedule and, as expected, it’s full of unscripted series and animated shows. The network once again eschewed plans to launch its fall schedule in May, as the other broadcast networks did.
