Mixed bag of news.
Shame about King of the Hill as it is one of the better animated comedies currently airing.
yay! for American Dad, the best animated comedy 
Denton will be missed, his Wayne Carey interview was compelling and he wasn’t afraid to ask the tough questions. He will be hard to replace.
Also Til Death has been axed/bumped from FOX’s Wednesday night schedule. It will be replaced with House reruns.
