Having seen today's TV IPOs, here are my thoughts
Out of the batch, my favorite was Brooklyn Nine-Nine. The pilot feels a little forced, but hopefully with the creative team behind the scenes, and Andy Samberg back on the small screen, they should have decent ratings and be one of the early pilots to receive a back nine order.
Dads has a lot press lately, and sometimes you can say all press is good press. Is the show offensive? To most it would be, as I'm not easily offended. But the latest scene went on far too long (even though it is about a "short" subject), just like most Family Guy asides. But Seth McFarland is Fox's golden child, so it might make the cut, depending on how much ratings drop in week 2 and 3. Premiere will probably have big numbers to see what hte controversy is all about.
And finally, Sleepy Hollow. Reaction on the net was toxic after the trailer premiered. The show... isn't really better. I'm guessing this might be one of the first casualties of the fall season.

Where did you get that I said fox was 4th? Plus the WB (the CW) is fifth, not 4th. {nm} Aug 23, 00:36
After terrible new shows last season, Fox has given this new group of premieres a LOT of thought. Aug 22, 17:16
