With two new series premiering this weekend, we're taking a look at FOX's new Fall programs -- three comedies. Every show finds its inspiration somewhere, and we decided to compare them side-by-side with some of FOX's most notable past and current programming. Just find the new series on the left-hand side and then read across to see if that show has anything in common with some of your fave FOX series!

	Arrested Development	Bones	House	The Simpsons
Glee Airs: Wednesdays @ 9PM	A comedy with no laugh track.	Playful sense of humor.	Glee-club leader Will and maverick doctor House both approach their jobs unconventionally.	Both series have air-headed alpha males -- Finn on Glee and Bart on The Simpsons.
Brothers Premieres: Fir, Sep 25 @ 8PM	Feuding siblings reunited by an ailing father.	Bickering duo makes a good team in each series.
The Cleveland Show Premieres: Sun, Sep 27 @ 8:30PM	Dysfunctional families with kids who are far too mature for their ages.			Both animated programs display questionable family values.
