The Fox singing competition series The X Factor returns for Season 2 in September, with two new judges – pop stars Britney Spears and Demi Lovato – and a new crop of aspiring talent.  Although I don’t typically cover reality shows, Spears is such a fascinating public figure that I’m making an exception.

Via satellite from Miami for boot camp rounds, during the Fox portion of the TCA Summer Press Tour, Britney Spears and Simon Cowell talked about how she decided to become a judge, what she brings to the show, how inspiring it is to nurture new talent, the relationship between the judges’ panel, the pressure of finding a blockbuster artist on the show, and whether this show is as much about the judges as it is the talent.  Check out what they had to say after the jump.

Question: Britney, it was obviously big news that you were joining the show, with headlines all over the world.  What went into your decision-making process about joining The X Factor, as a judge?

BRITNEY SPEARS:  Well, actually, I’d seen the show a couple of times, and I was such a fan of the show, and my make-up artist was the make-up artist for Simon.  We talked about it a couple of times, when I was on tour, but really never took it seriously until she went back and started working for him.  And then, we just all met up, and it made sense.  I adore Simon, and it was something I really wanted ...]]></description>

Yesterday we got a look at what NBC will be offering by way of scheduling and new series this fall, and now Fox has announced their upcoming 2012 schedule.  As far as shifts for returning series go, the Kiefer Sutherland drama Touch has been moved to Fridays, while Ryan Murphy’s Glee (which has been on a ratings downslide as of late) has been put in the post-X Factor/American Idol slot on Thursday nights.  Moreover, the network announced that Sarah Jessica Parker and Kate Hudson will be doing guest star arcs on Glee for the show’s upcoming fourth season.

As far as new shows go, The Office star Mindy Kaling’s new show, currently titled The Mindy Project (hopefully a temporary title), and the new ensemble comedy Ben and Kate will join Raising Hope and the hit Zooey Deschanel series New Girl on Tuesdays for an all-comedy night.  I’m a huge fan of New Girl and I’m hoping The Mindy Project will be a nice companion show.  Another high profile new series, Kevin Williamson’s serial killer show The Following starring Kevin Bacon, has been slated to premiere at midseason.  Hit the jump to get a look at the full Fox schedule.

Here’s the Fox Fall 2012 schedule, followed by the full press release.  Check back later today to get a look at trailers and synopses for all the new Fox series.
FOX 2012-2013 PRIMETIME SCHEDULE

Normally reality competition shows aren't exactly our cup of tea when given the choice between them and fantastic narrative television like Mad Men, Breaking Bad, really anything on AMC, and more, but when a pop culture giant like The X Factor comes along, we like to keep everyone informed every now and then. That's why we're letting viewers know that Fox has renewed the American Idol copycat alternative for a second season so we can keep Simon Cowell in those black baby t-shirts for many years to come. For the full press release and details on the upcoming live broadcasts, hit the jump.



Here's the full press release:

I  HATE MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER (working title) is a new multi-camera comedy  about two best friends who are single moms struggling to raise their  difficult and over-privileged teenage daughters. ANNIE (Emmy Award  winner Jaime Pressly, “My Name Is Earl”) and NIKKI (Tony Award winner  Katie Finneran, “Wonderfalls”) are former high school outcasts whose  pasts inform their current parenting styles. Annie, who was raised in an  ultra-strict, über-religious household where she had little-to-no  freedom, pretty much allows her daughter, SOPHIE (Kristi Lauren, “You”),  to do whatever she wants.

		<description><![CDATA[The new season of American Idol doesn't premiere until January, but interesting things are afoot already behind the scenes. According to Simon Cowell's brother, the caustic reality judge is looking to leave the show after the upcoming season to focus on adapting his British hit The X Factor for American television. This is not too surprising, as Cowell himself ruminated on leaving the show as early as last April, several months before Paula Abdul announced her departure.

To add intrigue to the matter, 58% of viewers said they would stop watching American Idol if Simon Cowell left the show in a recent survey. This would be a devastating blow to Idol, and would certainly knock it off its pedestal as America's favorite show. Fox seems unfazed by such talk though, as the channel is near a deal to extend Idol's run by three seasons; even if half the viewers jumped ship, Idol would still be among the top rated shows on TV. So look forward to many more years of American Idol, regardless of Cowell's involvement. In the meantime, catch judges Simon Cowell, Kara DioGuardi, Randy Jackson, Abdul replacement Ellen DeGeneres, and ubiquitous host Ryan Seacrest while you can when the ninth season of American Idol premieres on Fox on January 12, 2010. ]]></description>
