Fox yanks 'Utopia' from Tuesdays


Fox is dumping half of Utopia from its schedule.


The idealistic-sounding series with the hellish ratings is being yanked from Tuesday nights.


From now on, Utopia will only air on Fridays. The move comes just hours after we predicted this very move in EW's first canceled shows post.


Instead, Fox is going to launch the second season of Masterchef Junior in the Tuesday at 8 p.m. slot. starting Nov. 4. Next week, Fox will encore its Family Guy/ Simpsons crossover episode in the time period, then have animated repeats the following week.


Utopia has struggled hugely in the ratings this fall. The reality experiment where 13 'pioneers' built a new society had only 2 million viewers last night and a 0.8 rating among adults 18-49, which in turn wasn't helpful for Fox's 9 p.m. comedy block of New Girl and The Mindy Project.
