FOX feasted on a huge NFL overrun that pushed all of the Sunday animation show up. Krapopolis saw huge gains as a result of the football and the fact that it once again switched slots with The Simpsons. The problem is the show can't seem to hold onto those viewers when it airs at its regular time and without the NFL assist. Regardless, as of now, the show is already renewed for the next two seasons. Snake Oil managed to find two hundred thousand more viewers last week, but it may be too little too late to save the show.
