If the show was being bumped by anything other than the World Series, I’d wonder if Fox was concerned that The Masked Singer was being replaced by a broadcast that wouldn’t score nearly as high of ratings.
While the World Series going to seven games would make for an epic series for baseball fans, it would be bad news for The Masked Singer fans who would have to go two weeks without a new episode.
After all, The Masked Singer has killed almost all the non-football competition in the fall TV season so far.
The World Series will probably draw a healthy audience, however.
