Fox isn't planning to slow down come mid-season -- returning "American Idol" for its 11th season and three new dramas. Fox won the fall rating race among 18-49 viewers and improved in many other categories.

"Idol," while down in ratings versus recent years, hopes to get a big jump after the NFC Championship Game on Jan. 22, following the special two-night premiere on Wednesday and Thursday the previous week.

"Touch," with Fox favorite Kiefer Sutherland and "Heroes" producer Tim Kring, will start up Wednesday January 25. J.J. Abrams' "Alcatraz" will begin on Monday, Jan. 16. "House" will be paired first with "Alcatraz" Monday; then "House" will paired with "Touch" later in the season.

New procedural "The Finder" begins Thursday, Jan. 12., right after "Idol." 

Fox's strong Sunday night comedy block will get new shows “Napoleon Dynamite" starting on Sunday, Jan. 15., then "Breaking In" on March 6. The return of "Bob's Burgers" will debut March 11.

Fox seemingly had one casualty: Sunday animation-comedy "Allen Gregory" is nowhere to be found on the schedule for the rest of the 2011-2012 season.
