Originally posted by ChrTh: Did KOTH ever restart production after the writers' strike? I thought they had made a whole bunch of episodes pre-strike but haven't heard if they had made any new episodes since the strike (the current season is actually the second half of last season, which was actually the second half of the previous season plus the first half of its own season).
Yes, FOX ordered a 13-episode 13th season (series production code #DABE). They have been working on those episodes.
FOX's original plans were only to show 15 episodes this season (closing the season out with the 250th episode). What those plans are now, I couldn't say. They may keep on airing it in the earlier hour after "The Cleveland Show" and the Mitch Hurwitz thing enter the picture, or they'll give it the "Futurama" kiss-off and unload the handful of leftovers over the summer.
-- "Better Off Ted," Wednesdays at some time or another at some point or another in the near future. Because we can't all live in mansions and not ever work like the people on "Modern Family."

And, yet, walkout or no, "Dirty Filthy Slutty Money" had 3 filmed episodes ABC could have aired last season and chose not to. I guess even with the strike, the mouse would rather air shows that people, you know, watch.

Yep, 6m is great alright. It's great for The CW.

Doubling? You mean a viewership doubling? You mean like what the show had when it premiered? Before it lost half its audience?

The 7th game of the 2008-09 fall season of the P.I. Feedback Challenge is now online! (You can access the game directly by clicking the PIFC logo above.)
This game may look daunting at first glance, but there really is no complicated science to it. Just pick the 5 shows (one from each of the 5 broadcast networks while one from each associated level color) that you think will do best in the ratings in the next month. That's it! I urge any newcomers to pick any 5 shows just to enter - a few times in past games, those who picked randomly have actually done well.
If you become a PIFC Game weekly regular, you may be eligible to play in this season's brand new playoff system. Stay tuned...

It doesn't need to be a hit to get one more season, does it?
Honestly, it's like you people think that everything that gets promoted should catch on quickly and strongly.
Meanwhile the showrunners just want a few seasons of relatively smooth sailing and the networks are happy to give it to them as long as it ets their brand ahead, which is exactly what's going on with this particular show.
