12/23 - DOUBLE FEATURE ---------------------- 8:00 - Adventures in Baby Getting (PABF18) There's one problem with Marge's "new car of her dreams" - she dreams of having another baby, and the car's not big enough; Bart wonders why Lisa is writing strange messages and sneaking into town after school
8:30 - To Cur With Love (RABF01) Homer temporarily loses Santa's Little Helper while everyone else is out helping Grampa move after a fire at the Springfield Retirement Castle, so Grampa tells the story of Homer's first dog * Yes, this is the episode that aired on 12/16, but because a number of stations pre-empted it because of the Newtown memorial service and President Obama's speech, Fox is airing it again * Note that 12/23 is a Fox NFL doubleheader day, so these episodes may air a few minutes late in the Eastern and Central time zones
12/30 - Gone Abie Gone (PABF16) When Grampa is reported missing from the Springfield Retirement Castle, Homer and Marge's attempts to find him lead them to...his second wife; Lisa takes up online poker to try to improve the college fund money Homer put on a poker site * 12/30 is a Fox NFL doubleheader day, so these episodes may air a few minutes late in the Eastern and Central time zones
1/6 - Homer Goes to Prep School (RABF02) ...that is, a school where they prep people for an upcoming apocalypse * There's no Fox NFL doubleheader on 1/6...but all Fox stations will air an NFL playoff game starting at 4:30 Eastern (possibly later, if that day's AFC playoff game on CBS runs past 4:30 and the NFL chooses to delay the start until that game ends), so once again this episode may start late in the Eastern and Central time zones
FOX SCHEDULE CHANGES FOR 12/23 AND 12/30 (both days are Fox NFL doubleheader days, so football coverage will run until 8 Eastern)
12/23 8:00 - The Simpsons 8:30 - The Simpsons 9:00 - the Family Guy Christmas episode that was originally scheduled for 12/16 9:30 - a new American Dad (but not the one originally scheduled for 12/16; apparently, there is gun violence in it)
12/30 - the only change is, the 12/16 Bob's Burgers episode will be repeated at 8:30
