disappointing news...

Bones News:--- UPCOMING SCHEDULE CHANGE: Pre-empted due to American Idol

2/19 - "The Princess in the Pear"
2/26 - no Bones
3/5 - no Bones
3/12 - Bones returns, supposedly for a very long, uninterrupted run


I've never liked AI, but now I'm beginning to REALLY hate it. this sucks...

Thanks for the post! That isn't great news though!

wow, i can't say i have ever wanted to watch AI over Bones. I wonder what goes on inside FOX Exec's heads. They never seem to pre-empt the Sarah Chronciles or w/e it is. Or any other show it seems like.

Bones just seems like a victim of FOX most of the time. I'm probably wrong but that's how it feels.

I agree with you Lo. Bones gets bumped around all the time. I never watched AI before... will not now for sure.

That sucks! It's going to bugger things up down here as well as we've got Fire in the Ice this Sunday, then Hero in the Hold and I don't want more of a gap

Gah. When will the country stop going stupid over American Idol??!

It is nothing but competitive karaoke with a self-righteous host and a panel of judges that consists of a middle aged man who talks like a teenager from the early 1990s, a tipsy woman who has no right giving ANYONE singing advice, and a brit who makes millions off this crap he feeds to the masses.

Don't Drink and Drive and DON'T partake in the cultural delusion that is American Idol.

Wow, I thought I was the only one who hated AI so much... I'm glad to see I'm not alone. lol

I agree with you shopgirl909. WHEN ARE THEY GOING TO GET RID OF AI?!?!?!?

I hate AI...I hate "reality" tv...and I am sick of Fox messing with Bones..

I too am glad to not be alone in my hatred. We should start a club!

Grrrrr, AI, but more grrrr to Fox. Bones get AWESOME ratings and I hate that they take advantage of us fans because they know that we will follow Bones to any day, any time.

Bones may get "awesome ratings" but American Idol is still FOX's number one show...why, I am not sure, but that's the truth.

CURSE YOU AMERICAN IDOL!

Aww you've got new eps? Here in Australia we still don't know when they're going to show He in the She!

Also: I hate AI too. Never could get into it, although most of my friends love it. It makes sense with the scheduling though - we were wondering why it said uninterrupted through til the end of May, yet with 26 episodes they would have had one spare slot. Guess that means we aren't getting a 2 part season finale...

LOL okay!


I really don't understand why AI is Fox's "number 1" show. It's gotten to be a fake! the 1st couple seasons were legit, but now it's gotten to the point where the teenage girls are just voting for the "cute boys" (and they REALLY suck), and not for the people who are actually good. But just as it was from season 1... AI IS ANNOYING!!!

Also, if you read the fine print, it says that votes are not the only thing that saves a person. If the producers think that someone else, who has the lowest numbers, will bring in better ratings, then they will get rid of someone who would not have been voted off. Such a scam. Cannot wait until that show dies off. It was never a band wagon I jumped on.
