FOX has set the fall premiere dates for its new and returning series. The 2011-2012 season will kick off with the biggest night in television, the "63rd Primetime Emmy Awards," airing live in all time zones on Sunday, September 18 (8:00-11:00 PM ET / 5:00-8:00 PM PT) on FOX.

"Glee" and the gang from McKinley return Tuesday, September 20 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT), followed by the series debut of "New Girl" (9:00-9:30 PM ET/PT), the new comedy starring Zooey Deschanel ("(500) Days of Summer") as an adorkable girl who moves in with three single guys, changing their lives in unexpected ways. The Tuesday night of comedy continues with the return of the lovably hilarious Chance family on "Raising Hope" (9:30-10:00 PM ET/PT).



This fall, Wednesdays and Thursdays will never be the same after the spectacular two-night series premiere of "The X Factor" on September 21 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) and September 22 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT). Hosted by Steve Jones and featuring judges Simon Cowell, Antonio "L.A." Reid, Nicole Scherzinger and Paula Abdul, the singing competition series will award the next superstar solo artist or breakout musical group a $5 million recording contract with Syco/Sony Music. "Fringe" Fridays return to mystify September 23 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT), following the season premiere of Gordon Ramsay's "Kitchen Nightmares" (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT).

Animation dominates Sunday, September 25 with the season premieres of "The Simpsons" (8:00-8:30 PM ET/PT), "The Cleveland Show" (8:30-9:00 PM ET/PT), "Family Guy" (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) and "American Dad" (9:30-10:00 PM ET/PT). Then, on Sunday, October 30 (8:30-9:00 PM ET/PT), catch the series premiere of "Allen Gregory," the new animated comedy created by and featuring the voice of Jonah Hill ("Get Him to the Greek") that tells the story of a pretentious 7-year-old about to embark on his greatest challenge yet: attending elementary school with children his own age.

On Monday, September 26 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) travel back in time for the special two-hour event debut of "Terra Nova," the new epic adventure drama that follows an ordinary family on an extraordinary journey to prehistoric Earth. "Terra Nova" makes its time period premiere on Monday, October 3 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT), followed by the eighth season premiere of acclaimed medical drama "House" (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT). The crime-solving team from the Jeffersonian returns for all-new episodes of "Bones" Thursday, November 3 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT)—once the MLB 2011 World Series concludes.

On Wednesday, November 23, get ready for the series premiere of "I Hate My Teenage Daughter" (9:30-10:00 PM ET/PT), the new family comedy starring Jaime Pressly ("My Name Is Earl") and Katie Finneran ("Wonderfalls") as single moms, life-long friends—and former nerds—who fear their privileged and overly indulged daughters are turning out just like the mean girls who picked on them in high school.

In addition, "Cops" will enter its 24th season Saturday, September 10 (8:00-8:30 PM ET/PT), and "America's Most Wanted" will premiere the first of its two-hour quarterly specials Saturday, October 29 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT).
