Animal Control

The January midseason schedule on Fox starts Thursday, January 2 with the series premiere of the all-new Denis Leary workplace comedy, Going Dutch (9:30-10:00 PM ET/PT), preceded by the Season Three premiere of Joel McHale's comedy, Animal Control (9:00-9:30 PM ET/PT), together building a new Thursday night comedy block. The night also includes the return of Gordon Ramsay's Hell's Kitchen (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) in a season where "Head Chefs Only" compete for a coveted position in the Ramsay restaurant empire. The series debut of Fox's new medical drama Doc is Tuesday, January 7 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT). Doc stars Molly Parker (House of Cards) as the hard-charging, brilliant Chief of Internal Medicine Dr. Amy Larsen, who suffers a brain injury that erases the last eight years of her memory. Also making its debut that Tuesday night is Doc's lead-in, Kitchen Nightmares: Road to Super Bowl LIX (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT), with the episodes leading up to The Big Game set in New Orleans, where local eateries in crisis must rely on Gordon Ramsay's expertise to get up and running - to Gordon's high standards - by the time football fans roll into The Big Easy. Marking the start of Fox's five-week television event is the Season Three premiere of Special Forces: World's Toughest Test on Wednesday, January 8 (8:00-10:00 PM PT/ET).

9-1-1: Lone Star (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) and Rescue: HI-Surf (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) return with their winter premieres on Monday, January 20, leading up to the gripping, unforgettable series finale of 9-1-1: Lone Star on Monday, February 3 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT). Then, the football fever continues on Fox as the temperature rises post-game with "FOX's Super Week." Immediately following The Big Game on Sunday, February 9 is the Season Three premiere of Fox's ultimate quiz show The Floor, hosted by Rob Lowe. Rescue: HI-Surf on the night after The Big Game brings gridiron energy to Hawaii's North Shore on Monday, February 10 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT). In this action-packed, explosive episode, Sonny (Robbie Magasiva), Em (Arielle Kebbel) and the Ocean Safety team face their most dangerous rescue yet when a literal minefield is discovered on the ocean floor, while a hugely popular influencer will do anything to capture viral content for her massive following.

On Wednesday, February 12 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) the Season 13 premiere of The Masked Singer, followed by time period launch of Rob Lowe's hit game show, The Floor (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT). And on Thursday, February 13 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT), Gordon Ramsay's Season Four premiere of Next Level Chef, the ultimate culinary competition gauntlet. Additional schedule details to be announced.
