FOX has tabled its plans to send its summer dating series TAKE ME OUT to Saturday nights. The newcomer matched its series high last night (1.3 rating among adults 18-49), up from its series low last week (1.0 rating). MOBBED which had been set to take over the show's Thursday, 8:00/7:00c slot next week, will now air Saturdays with back-to-back episodes beginning at 8:00/7:00c.

In MOBBED, Mandel and thousands of strangers will help individuals across the country plan extraordinary surprises for friends, family members, loved ones or co-workers. These unknowing participants will be shocked and stunned by surprise performances that lead up to fantastic reveals that include a husband learning that his wife is pregnant, an applicant finding out that she got the job and a soldier returning home from war, among others.

Throughout each hour, the individuals will be shown prepping for the event – rehearsing their routines and refining their announcements – all while receiving guidance from host Mandel. Then, on the day of the big event – with the hidden cameras rolling – the detailed plan comes to fruition and suddenly explodes into a song-and-dance spectacle they are sure never to forget. What begins as a few dancers evolves into a grand-scale performance that wraps up with a life-changing announcement for the participants like nothing ever seen on TV.
