FOX is announcing April launch dates for the return of BONES and the debut of HOTEL HELL.
On Thursday, April 5 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT), BONES returns with an expectant Brennan (Emily Deschanel) and Booth (David Boreanaz) at odds over plans for the upcoming birth of their daughter. Meanwhile, a neighborhood is on edge when remains are found in the sewer, clogging up local plumbing lines.
After more than a decade of running restaurants in some of the world's top hotels, Gordon Ramsay knows firsthand the crucial importance of surpassing guests' highest expectations. In HOTEL HELL premiering Friday, April 6 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT), Ramsay will travel across the country to fix horrid hotels, awful inns and just plain bad bed and breakfasts. To come to grips with the problems, Ramsay will endure hotels at their worst - from filthy bedrooms and mold-ridden bathrooms to dreadful room service and incompetent staff - all so you don't have to. After he has uncovered the issues, Ramsay will put the hotel owners and employees to work as he attempts to turn around these failing establishments. With reputations on the line, one thing is certain: if they can't meet Ramsay's high standards, they will never check out of HOTEL HELL.
As previously announced, the second season of BREAKING IN debuts Tuesday, March 6 (9:30-10:00 PM ET/PT), as part of a new block of four half-hour comedies including all-new episodes of RAISING HOPE (8:00-8:30 PM ET/PT), I HATE MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER (8:30-9:00 PM ET/PT) and NEW GIRL (9:00-9:30 PM ET/PT). RAISING HOPE kicks off the night with an all-new episode in which the citizens of Natesville, including a surprise guest star, "occupy" their hometown. On I HATE MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER (8:30-9:00 PM ET/PT), Nikki (Katie Finneran) and Annie (Jaime Pressly) attend a night school class taught by guest star Mark Consuelos ("All My Children") who, in the first of a two-episode arc, becomes a potential romantic interest for Annie. Then on NEW GIRL, Jess (Zooey Deschanel) accidentally hurts Nick (Jake Johnson) during a touch football game, which leads to some unexpected complications. Finally, on the season premiere of BREAKING IN, Oz (Christian Slater) and the staff of Contra Security find themselves working for the Mann - Veronica Mann (Emmy Award winner Megan Mullally) - when Oz must sell the company to a national conglomerate.
BOB'S BURGERS returns to the ANIMATION DOMINATION(R) menu for Season Two on Sunday, March 11 (8:30-9:00 PM ET/PT) with an all-new episode in which the kids hunt for treasure in an abandoned taffy factory and Bob (voice of H. Jon Benjamin) and Linda (John Roberts) must find them before the factory's scheduled demolition. TOUCH, the distinctive new drama created by Tim Kring ("Heroes") and starring Kiefer Sutherland ("24"), will world premiere Monday, March 19 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT), with an encore of the preview airing Monday, March 12 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT).
All-new episodes of fan-favorite series rejoin the schedule in April. Beginning Monday, April 2 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT), Dr. House and the Princeton Plainsboro team return for eight all-new episodes leading to the HOUSE series finale on Monday, May 21 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT). After its run during the Tuesday comedy block, I HATE MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER moves to Wednesdays, starting April 4 (9:30-10:00 PM ET/PT) following 90-minute AMERICAN IDOL (8:00-9:30 PM ET live/PT tape-delayed) performance shows. Beginning Tuesday, April 10 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT), GLEE leads off a night of FOX comedies with an all-new episode featuring Matt Bomer ("White Collar") as Blaine Anderson's (Darren Criss) older brother Cooper, followed by all-new installments of NEW GIRL (9:00-9:31 PM ET/PT) and RAISING HOPE (9:31-10:00 PM ET/PT).
