The men&#8217;s two shows will lead into the &#8216;Dancing With the Stars&#8217; results show in the fall and late spring, and the women&#8217;s comedies will be added to the comedy block between the reality competition&#8217;s two cycles.<\/p>\n<p>When the four comedies will be aired together, they&#8217;ll be going against FOX&#8217;s own comedy block, which includes &#8216;Glee.&#8217; When the hit show goes on hiatus in March 2012, FOX will launch its own four-show comedy block to rival ABC&#8217;s lineup.<\/p>\n<p>ABC has also been focusing on including more comedies in its schedule for the 2011-2012 season. This year&#8217;s mid-season comedy replacement &#8216;Happy Ending&#8217; will be airing in &#8216;Cougar Town&#8217;s current Wednesday 9:30 PM slot after &#8216;Modern Family.&#8217; ABC Entertainment Group president Paul Lee said the network feels the show &#8220;has a huge potential.&#8221; He added that the network is &#8220;just as ambitious about our mid-season launches as we are about the fall.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Written by: Karen Benardello<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_50829\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-50829\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/courtney_cox_cougar_town_bra.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/courtney_cox_cougar_town_bra.jpg\" alt=\"Courtney Cox in Cougar Town\" title=\"Courtney Cox in Cougar Town\" width=\"500\" class=\"size-full wp-image-50829\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/courtney_cox_cougar_town_bra.jpg 583w, https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/courtney_cox_cougar_town_bra-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 583px) 100vw, 583px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-50829\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Courtney Cox in Cougar Town<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ABC will launch a new Tuesday night two-hour comedy block next spring when it pairs Tim Allen&#8217;s &#8216;Last Man Standing,&#8217; Chris Moynihan&#8217;s &#8216;Man Up,&#8217; Courtney Cox&#8217;s &#8216;Cougar Town&#8217; and Krysten Ritter&#8217;s &#8216;Apartment 23,&#8217; Deadline is reporting.
