UPDATE, 2:15 p.m. TUESDAY: The new schedule for WTVW will change a little beginning the week of Sept. 9.
Starting Monday, Sept. 10, Rules of Engagement will replace The Office at 8:30 and 10:30 p.m. CT. Dish Nation, a nightly entertainment/celebrity news program focusing on the comedic side of “breaking entertainment news,” will air at 1:30 a.m. CT, moving King of the Hill to 2:30 a.m. That means It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia gets bumped, too.
So where are The Office and It's Always Sunny going?
The Office will air for one hour beginning at 12:30 a.m. It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia will have a one-hour block at 4 a.m.
Confused yet? You're not alone ... I am, too!
PREVIOUSLY: Starting next week, you might be forgiven if you think that Local 7 WTVW starts to look a little bit like a Fox affiliate again, as the station is adding some of that network's most popular Sunday night shows - The Simpsons, Family Guy and American Dad - to its syndicated lineup.

The Simpsons, which is America's longest-running sitcom and animated program, will air in double episodes each weeknight at 7 and 7:30 p.m. CT, except for Friday nights, when the station airs local high school sports.
Family Guy and American Dad will also air in double episodes from 10:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. CT.
King of the Hill also returns to WTVW's lineup with a single episode each weekday morning at 1:30 a.m.
There are other changes to the lineup as well, and here are a few of those:
- Steve Harvey's new self-titled talk show replaces Jack Hanna's Animal Adventures and Swift Justice at 10 a.m. (Swift Justice moves to 2 p.m., replacing The Nate Berkus Show.)
- Inside Edition moves to 2:30 p.m., followed by The Insider at 3.
- Judge Judy will continue at 3:30, 5 and 5:30 but will lose its 3 p.m. episode.
- It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, which is displaced by Family Guy at 10:30 p.m., moves to 2:30 a.m. (temporarily).
WTVW is reducing its dependence on Me-TV programming (which is also carried by WTSN and WYYW) by replacing the classic TV network's overnight shows (Mission: Impossible, Combat! and 12 O'Clock High) with King of the Hill, It's Always Sunny, a 30-minute infomercial, and second runs of Inside Edition and The Insider. The station will continue to air some Me-TV shows, but only on weekends.
