Fox taps Yasui to upgrade late-night TV
Producer Todd Yasui has been named senior vp late-night programming at Fox Broadcasting Co.

Yasui’s appointment signals Fox’s renewed interest in establishing a beachhead in late-night like its Big Three network rivals. At present, Fox’s only late-night offering is the Saturday night sketch comedy series “Mad TV.”

In addition to his executive role, Yasui is serving as executive producer of the pilot “Talk Show With Spike Feresten,” which the network said is under consideration as a late-night property.

“Having an executive with Todd’s experience supervise this initiative demonstrates that we’re serious about considering postprime programming,” Fox entertainment president Peter Liguori said in announcing Yasui’s appointment.
