He is also planning to create a mini-season on the air starting in March or April, carrying through July, allowing for a scripted series to hopefully bridge into summer. So Fox will essentially be on its way to having four seasons: fall, January, the mini spring-summer season, and summer.
Even though they're having a bad fall (what's new?), Reilly has Fox in a still pretty strong position. They'll still probably take first once Idol and 24 come back to fill holes.
