As per the Associated Press release, House will be moving from Tuesdays to Mondays @ 8 PM EST on FOX effective January 19, 2009 to make room for Americal Idol, which always airs Tuesdays.

I could not find any information about what Global may be doing to accomodate this change for their simultaneous substitution opportunity, but I know that if they did move it to Mondays, they would have to reschedule Prison Break, which I don't believe they simulcast anyway.

If anyone knows Global's stance, please do comment. I'd love to watch it on FOX uninterrupted in my own timezone.

Fox is saving Prison Break for later in the season. Here (http://tviv.org/Winter_2009_Grid_(USA)) is the winter 2009 schedule for the American networks. Looking at it there is no reason that Global won't simulcast it, with Heroes at 9 and The Philanthropist at 10. 24 is moving to E! this winter, so it can be in simulcast. Global hasn't made any official midseason plans yet, expect those once CBS and ABC have completed their schedules. Fox is changing their entire schedule at midseason, as they usually do. Here is the entire thing (for those of you who are too laze to look at the link).

The only shows I watch on Fox is House, Cops and American Idol. The show Fringe isn't bad either.

I can't believe this made it past the first episode. I watch 30 seconds and promptly deleted it along with the associated timer.

I agree. They are just burn off episodes on weeks when they don't have football or NASCAR. I guess they do better than Simpsons repeats. I don't expect them to last long this time either.
