Afternoon Baseball

This is actually a good move. It's on at 8 pm, which is before football. It's also not in between 3-6 animated comedies, which really hurt it this year. I think Fox figured that surrounding it with other quirky, successful comedies would bolster it, but I think most people just figured, I'll skip the live-action one and just wait for the next animated show.
Also, they seemed to have no idea how to advertise it. Now, they'll have to, as it will be the centerpiece of the Monday lineup.

Fox's schedule

EDIT (05/03/06): This post was completely off the mark, sadly, except for the part about live action sandwiched by animation being bad. If only things had turned out differently.
