The Half Hour News Hour
Talk1this wiki
Redirected from This Just In
The 1/2 Hour News Hour is an all-American television show to glorify The Baby Jesus and everything He stands for.
FOX has tentatively scheduled it to air on two Saturdays in January, 2007.
It will be picked up forever if there is enough interest.
Allegedly AOL-Time Warner owns the phrase "This Just In" forcing Rupert Murdoch to have to pay someone to come up with a different name or pay lawyers to do copyright research. Not so much pay, as in pay the going rate or at the very least, pay minimum wage.
FOX has chosen to officially name the program The 1/2 Hour News Hour. No outside parties influenced this decision whatsoever.

Premire
Edit
The expectations were so high for the show that no one could have imagined the astronomical numbers it turned in.
The Nielson overnight numbers didn't need to be parsed; 50 billion people world-wide tuned in to view the first showing.
The executives at FOX were so impressed by the numbers that they ordered 500 times the number of new shows than Comedy Central ordered for The Sarah Silverman Program (which is about a girl, and shows about girls never get numbers like FOX shows do) thus showing to the world and everyone in it how committed they are to the "HHNH" franchise!
Church groups are planning protests and boycotts against local affiliates and sponsors if FOX does not create a channel specifically for the airing of the show, repeating the show and other shows that talk about HHNH.

Canceled
Edit
After an astonishing run of twice the average British television show, producers decided to end the show on a high note and announced that a swan song will air on September 16th.
No plans were announced as to when it will return and under what name.
Reformulated?
Edit
Just as soon as THHNH was canceled, New Hollywood took up the slack and introduced America to Back to You, starring everyone's favorite future California Senator, Kelsey Grammer and America's Sweetheart, Patricia Heaton. Good to see the both of you back on TV. Talent like yours shouldn't go unrewarded!
You have earned deserve it!
