Fox is scrapping its plans for New Year's Eve.
The network this week confirmed the Nye special from Times Square will no longer go ahead as planned.
The decision was brought on due to the surge in Covid cases brought on by the Omicron variant.
“While we are confident in the health and safety protocols for Fox’s New Year’s Eve Toast & Roast 2022, the recent velocity of the spread of Omicron cases has made it impossible to produce a live special in Times Square that meets our standards,” Fox Entertainment said in a statement.
“We will not be moving forward with Fox’s New Year’s Eve Toast & Roast 2022 in New York."
"The health and safety of our casts and crews has always been, and will continue to be, of the utmost importance. Replacement programming for New Year’s Eve on Fox will be announced in the coming days.
