Fringe fans aren't the only ones concerned by the midseason schedule unveiled this evening by FOX, which includes the move of American Idol to Wednesdays and Thursdays in January.The move means that the reality juggernaut, which has seen its ratings deflated somewhat of late, will now air opposite NBC's cult comedy Community. But it's not time to send in the save our show letters just yet.
Creator Dan Harmon, reached by Televisionary on Friday evening, had this to say.
"My reaction: We have nothing to worry about," Harmon told me. "American Idol has a totally different audience. They like popular things."
So there. Viva Greendale.

I love Community and have never watched American Idol (again not surprising as it isn't broadcast here in the Netherlands, but we have our own version I haven't watched either), so I hope he's right.
