'Mac' to Monday as FOX Shuffles Schedule FOX is reworking its Monday-night schedule, sending "The Bernie Mac Show" there in an attempt to help new comedy "Cracking Up" and moving "Forever Eden" to the dead zone of Thursday nights."Bernie Mac" will move into its new home at 8 p.m. ET Monday (March 22), where it will lead into "Cracking Up." Extra episodes of "The Simpsons" will fill the vacant 8:30 Sunday slot. "Oliver Beene" is also headed for a hiatus, replaced by "King of the Hill" repeats."Forever Eden," meanwhile, will move to 9 p.m. Thursdays beginning March 25. The potentially never-ending unscripted show, a ratings non-starter on Mondays, will have few expectations placed on it in a spot where it runs opposite two big hits, CBS' "CSI" and NBC's "The Apprentice."The "Extreme Makeover"-meets-Miss America reality show "The Swan" will eventually fill "Eden's" Monday spot. FOX has moved back its premiere by a week and will launch it on Wednesday, April 7, following "American Idol" ("The O.C." will take the week off). It will move to its regular Monday home on April 12.Reruns of "That '70s Show" will fill the 9 p.m. Monday spot in the weeks between "Forever Eden's" move and "The Swan."
