Fox is making some changes in its programming for next year's winter lineup and two fan-favorite fantasy and crime drama seem to be receiving no love: "Sleepy Hollow" and "Bones."
Fox Broadcasting Company has already released a final list of their Winter 2016 lineup which includes new shows and old ones that are moving on to finish its new season.
The new show schedule from the network has two things that has caught the attention of Cinema Blend: "Sleepy Hollow" being scheduled on a Friday and the apparent absence of "Bones."According to the outlet, these two shows got a "hint" at their actual popularity standings "because the network is showing them no love."
Apparently, the outlet believes that moving on a Friday schedule would not be a good thing for "Sleepy Hollow," which is currently in its third season. The show did well during its first season but has recently experienced a drop in viewership, according to a previous Cinema Blend report.
"Bones," on the other hand, is currently in its 11th and - most probably - final season if lead star David Boreanaz has anything to say about it.
"For me, personally, I think it's time. I think that 11 seasons is great. I mean, one season is great! I don't really count it as seasons but what we've given to the show and what we can do, for me it's great to see the show come to an end and do it the way we want to do it," he told E! News last month.
The former "Angel" actor may be onto something when he made previous statement. The show is not exactly doing well. The beginning of season 11 has seen significant drop in viewership compared to the previous season.
This is based on a rating chart published in TV Series Finale which tallies the show's performance per episode.
