Fox ready to 'come out swinging' in the fall

May 18, 2007 The network is launching three new reality series in the fourth quarter along with three new scripted series. Four more scripted series will roll out in the midseason, when they should get a lift from the presence of "American Idol," which has nearly single-handedly given Fox the ratings crown in recent years. Peter Liguori, president of entertainment at Fox, believes that the stability of 17 returning series also will help give Fox the momentum that has eluded it in early fall.
