Sadly the Mark Burnett/Steven Spielberg created Fox show ON THE LOT is doing so poorly in the ratings that Fox has decided to leave some of the show on the cutting room floor.
I’m highly addicted to the show and think its a really amazing and important step in the reality show process. It’s a truly creative and inspiring show much like So You Think You Can Dance is. Filmmakers battling it out with their talents to get a dream job with Dreamworks.
Instead of two nights per week, On The Lot will now be condensed into one show per week. The Monday night show is gone, effective immediately. The competition and the results will happen simultaneously. If you’re scratching your head, you’re not alone. I don’t know what this means for the whole America Votes aspect of the show unless they are moving the voting process online for a day or two prior to the live broadcast. I’m so confused and annoyed.
On The Lot is needs more than 2 weeks to catch on and grow. Let it find its audience and let people get used to watching short films. America is not a short film society for the most part. It will take some getting used to for the non-fill buffs out there that comprise most of the viewing audience for any given show. FOX, leave it be and let it grow!
