Didn’t see a thread on this week’s Wonderfalls. Just finished watching my tape, thought the episode was better than the second episode.
Big news though was at the previews for next week’s show, it moves to Thursday nights! My local listings for next week shows it scheduled for Friday.
And thus starts the downward spiral due to Fox’s schitzophrenic programming. :mad:

It’s not a permanent change. It’s just for next week, seeing as how next Thursday is April 1st.

I don’t get the April Fool’s Day logic either. But I did distinctly hear them say to watch it on its **new night**. Doesn’t sound temporary to me.

So now it’s going up against CSI Miami? ☹ What is Fox thinking?

:shrug:
On the website it is says it is a ‘Special Night’, which indicates one time to me. Who knows… perhaps you are right. But it’d be a bad move.

It sounded to me like the move was permanent, but who knows. I’ll keep watching 🙂

Jeez… moving it to Thursdays permanently would definitely follow Fox’s move the show until it gets crap ratings and we can cancel it strategy! Hopefully the website is right in saying ‘Special Night and Time’ and what it seemed like on the show was wrong.

FOX is crap. So many shows have died in that Friday night slot over the past few years. It would benefit the show long term to move permenently. However, if it is just a “Special Night and Time,” that’d be worse than anything. People who have never seen it wouldn’t care. People who watch it might watch something else that night, or not even know it’s on…
Damn FOX and their evilness…

Are they trying to pair it up with Tru Calling? What an… odd move. Especially seeing as how last I heard TC had been cancelled.

Tru cancelled? I didn’t hear that! ☹

It makes more sense to me than pairing it with “Playing It Straight,” which is what it’s after now.
I’ve figured out what bugs me about “Wonderfalls.” I love it until the last 10 minutes, when things are happily resolved thanks to Jaye. You get this wonderfully acerbic show with sappy, cheesy endings. Yuck.
