‘Brothers,’ ‘Til Death’ and ‘Dollhouse’ go on hiatus for sweeps

The Fox Network’s Friday night prime time shows “Brothers,” “‘Til Death” and “Dollhouse” are going on hiatus after their October 23 airings, according to The Futon Critic. The programs will be replaced with reruns of “House” and “Bones.”

There’s good news and bad news here: the numbers for “Dollhouse” have been ticking slightly upward, but it’s never a good sign when you’re pulled from sweeps periods — when important ratings are measured — especially for reruns of other programs. “Dollhouse” will return in December with back-to-back airings. In January, the show will be back in its regular single-run Friday night slot.

“Brothers” will shift permanently to a 6 p.m. CT Sunday slot, the site reports, noting that no return date for “Til Death” was given.
