Here’s my theory. ABC moves it to Sunday at 8 when Once has its mid-season hiatus, which was the plan in the first place before changing it to a full order. Even if the ratings absolutely tank on Thursday, my guess is they shelve the show but then put it back on when Once hits hiatus.
I think ABC is looking for an option right now and that one sounds good. They may try to move it first, see if it can be in the lineup and not get hit. I *hate* that they put it in this slot. Did they honestly think it was going to do ok?
