CHARLIE ANDREWS NAMED EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT, DRAMA PROGRAMMING, DEVELOPMENT AND EVENT SERIES, FOX BROADCASTING COMPANY

Today, Fox Television Group (FTG) Chairmen and CEOs Gary Newman and Dana Walden confirmed two executive appointments at Fox Broadcasting Company (FOX) and Twentieth Century Fox Television.

Terence Carter, Executive Vice President, Drama Programming, Development and Event Series, FOX, has been promoted to Executive Vice President, Development, Drama and Comedy, Twentieth Century Fox Television. Reporting to Jonnie Davis, President of Creative Affairs, Twentieth Century Fox Television, Carter will be responsible for overseeing all program development for the studio. He replaces Michael Thorn, who in August was named President of Entertainment for FOX.

Charlie Andrews will replace Carter as the network's Executive Vice President, Drama Programming, Development and Event Series. Responsible for all drama and event programming for FOX, he will report directly to Thorn.

"Terence is a spectacular creative executive who has been responsible for some of the network's biggest and boldest hits," commented Davis. "When Michael was tapped for the network Presidency, there was only one executive I thought of who could possibly fill his shoes. Terence is a smart and strategic programmer who already has a shorthand with our creative teams. I couldn't be happier he will be joining us."

"Charlie is an extremely well respected executive with impeccable taste and longstanding relationships throughout the creative community," said Thorn. "We've been friends and colleagues for almost a decade and I can't wait for him to return to the FOX family and re-join the incredible team we have in place."
