The launch strategy for new drama The Finder was probably the most puzzling element in Fox’s midseason announcement last week (that and seeing flash-mob series Mobbed on the schedule, after American Idol no less). Fox had originally scheduled the Bones spinoff, which premieres January 12, to follow a Bones rerun. Now the network has switched the repeat with an original Bones, which will no doubt boost the Finder debut. But the move will disrupt the run of Bones as the January 12 episode is the fall finale, originally scheduled for December 15. A repeat of Bones’ Finder spinoff episode will air next week instead. Starting January 19, The Finder will run behind American Idol on Thursday while Bones goes on hiatus.

Fake, newly created, stupid idea of a Spin-off.
As opposed to one that wasn’t created recently? A really old spin-off?
Fake and newly created. Doesn’t describe this industry _at all_
Tell us what you really think, Ralphy.
I am a huge addictive fan of BONES and the only episode that I have only watched once is the one touting the new show Finder. I could not stand the show,the premise and the cast, to me it was not only as bad as listening to cats sing but watching them do so. The Finder will sink as surely as the Titanic, not an iceberg this time but Mean Theory!!!!
I feel like intentionally turning the channel after Bones just to show FOX how pissed I am that they have the audacity to change MY show’s schedule to push a poorly received, completely boring, snooze-inducing imitation that no one cares about!
UGH!
First the delayed season, now this. I’m beginning to think they’re taking the fans for granted.
