Title: Cherries Wild premiere delayed
Post by: BrandonFG on February 14, 2021, 09:21:21 PM
This may be a first...due to weather delays at today’s Daytona 500, Fox postponed the premiere of “Cherries Wild” to next Sunday. Apologies to the four of you looking forward to this momentous event.

So I guess it's pre-empted in Cincinnati? :P

The real victim here is "The Great North," after about 10 billion Fox promos over the last 6 months proclaiming that it was premiering on February 14th.

They've already shown two episodes of it (verdict...eh, its slow but has potential), and I believe it has another season renewed already, so it will have time to grow.

You think four people are interested? Boy, you are an optimist. :)

I was going to give it a cursory look. We’ll see if I’m feeling as charitable next week.

It’s a 30-minute show so at the very least, it’ll suck half as much as Spin The Wheel, right?

Well, the first episode is up on Hulu if you're interested.

It's certainly a lot to pack in 30 minutes.

Must have been an error, because it isn’t up when I search.

Also, Points!

A 30-minute prime time game show seems like an anomaly, not counting shows that fit two episodes into the hour like ABC's lineup.

Yes, I'm sure the producers of "Bob's Burgers" will muddle through somehow, despite this, and the release of the movie being repeatedly delayed. They can forget their sorrows by watching an exciting episode of "Cherries Wild."

So TJCW premieres next week, as in the 21st? 

Where was it supposed to air? 

I assume just before the animation block, as we were supposed to get new Simpsons and such (an episode revisiting Mrs. Krabappel no less).  Or at least between Simpsons and Family Guy, which were supposed to be new on the 14th too.

Everything got moved to this Sunday. 7pm E/P, 6pm Central. It was intended to air last Sunday in the same pattern.
