Yeah, there are some similarities, I guess. Burn Notice is better though. Which proves how fucked in the head the thinking was in the corporate offices of "NBC Universal" even before the Comca$t takeover. They put all their good shows like "Burn Notice", "White Collar", and "Royal Pains" on the bastard stepchild cable networks and fill the NBC network channel up with "reality" crap.

Will Season 8 Of “House” Air On Fox Or NBC?

Who can imagine a world without House or a least without a home? So far, the situation is a bit complicated for the outside eye but it’s nothing that has never been seen before in studio business. Basically, NBC produces House and FOX broadcasts House. Their deal will come to expiration when season seven ends and what’s left up in the air is whether they will continue with this agreement or if both parties will want to change the terms. In other words, will NBC agree to keep supporting the production costs and let House air on FOX or will they want more out of the negotiations? The peacock might also want to put House on their schedule considering its recent lack of original programs and ratings struggle. Furthermore, is FOX ready to bring more to the table to keep beloved House and avoid a move or would it decide to make it an in-house show and pick up the production fees?
What’s unfortunate in this situation is that House is not a shiny new show and it’s expensive. It doesn’t pull in the kind of ratings and shares that it used to after being on the air for seven years. Yet, it still does quite well and holds its own each Monday. Currently above the 10 million viewers mark with very decent numbers on the demo coveted by FOX, it provides the network with solid add revenues. Moreover, the buzz around the show is ever so present in the Medias coverage, with the fandom’s dedication and with the recent storyline. House remains the most watched show worldwide far from ready to wish farewell.
Luckily, the good news is leading man and indispensable star of the hit medical drama, Hugh Laurie, is already signed on for an additional season. But the rest of the cast is still awaiting details about their contracts’ fate. I can hardly imagine the show without Laurie’s valuable series regular costars Lisa Edelstein (boss/girlfriend Lisa Cuddy) or Robert Sean Leonard (best friend James Wilson) and no team to bounce of ideas to help him diagnoses his patients. This goes for Omar Epps (Foreman), Jessie Spencer (Chase) and Peter Jacobson (Taub). Olivia Wilde (13) is said to be back next year, and will return before the end of this season around episode 18 “with a very cool storyline” according to creator David Shore who will sadly let go praised newcomer Amber Tamblyn (Masters) respecting her choice.
Finally, what could keep the audience confident about the future is that each major TV players are positive that the show will be back for an eight season giving reassurance for the renewal. Good House call!
I like 'Human Target'... I watched all of Season One but after the Season 2 premiere, I've been letting them build up on the DVR and have just started watching them on Monday.
I don't like the boss lady... her hair makes her look kinda ugly. I bet her vag stinks like vinegar, sweat and rotten lettuce... I hope Chance doesn't bang her. I'm still waiting for Chance's gal that Baptiste 'blew up' on a boat to resurface. Best episode of the series so far was the one that had Lee Majors in it... now that was a bad ass fucker.
Anyway... Fringe > Human Target... I wish Fox would put both shows on Friday Night.
which replaced the (by comparison) iconic and far superior Life On Mars. How/why a show with Harvey Keitel, Michael Imperioli, and Gretchen Mol wouldn't be given more time to develop an audience by ABC is beyond me.
I don't understand why it was on Monday and Wednesday. Hard to keep up when it is on. I guess Wednesday is the normal night. Come on already anchor it!
Another one of those classic genius posts, sure to generate responses. You log on the next day to see what your witty gem has produced to find no one gets it and 2 knotheads want to stick their dicks in it... Well played, sir!!

A couple of weeks ago, two episodes were supposed to air on a Wednesday evening. These shows were bumped so FOX could air the memorial for the Arizona shooting victims, and the episodes appeared unannounced the following Friday night. American Idol returned the following Wednesday, causing FOX to move the show yet again. Human Target wound up in House's time slot Monday night, inexplicably followed on Wednesday at it's original time. Supposedly Wednesday is the show's scheduled night, but it could be bumped again if Idol goes into overdrive. At this point, your guess is as good as mine as to if the show will appear when it is supposed to.
