8:00-8:30 PM THE SIMPSONS
8:30-9:00 PM ALLEN GREGORY (new)
9:00-9:30 PM FAMILY GUY

As you can see there will be no change to Family Guy’s place in the line-up, as is the case with The Simpsons. The Cleveland Show however will be moved to the 7:30PM “death slot”. New series Allen Gregory will occupy the 8:30PM spot for the Fall and come midseason that place will belong to the new Napoleon Dynamite show. American Dad! will return to it’s old time slot of 9:30PM in the Fall, only to be removed from the line-up midseason to make way for the next season of Bob’s Burgers.

What are your thoughts?

Cleveland’s second season comes to a close tonight with “Hot Cocoa Bang Bang”.

Cleveland takes the entire family to a comic convention in an attempt to sell his comic book, “Waderman.” While there, Donna is horrified to find out that Robert Rodriguez (guest-voicing as himself) is screening a Blaxploitation film that she starred in when she was younger, and Cleveland Jr., tired of Comic-Con being a playground for Hollywood to peddle their projects, gathers a band of geeks together to take the Con back to its true origins.

EW has exclusive previews of Sunday’s second season finale of The Cleveland Show, “Hot Cocoa Bang Bang” in which a well-rounded figure on Sunday nights makes a surprise appearance.
