Subject: Does anybody understand the scheduling decisons??

I'm just wondering if everybody else is as confused as I am by the order in which they've chosen to air eps this season? Two things I'm confused about: First, don't the producers and/or network execs want to air their *BEST* eps during sweeps months? (November, February and May) Does this mean these people really believe that eps like "Hungry" and "Fight Club" were better than eps like "all things" and "The Amazing Maleeni"?
Secondly, why did they save all the light-hearted and/or shippy eps for the very end? After a "shipper-drought" that lasted from the end of November to the middle of April, we've been practically deluged with shippy stuff in the past few weeks. (I'm not complaining about having shippy stuff in every ep recently. If it had been that way all through the season, I would have been thrilled. But if we were only going to get 7 or 8 shippy moments all season long, I would have rather had them staggered throughout the season than having two in November and the other five or six during the last six weeks of the season.) And, while light-hearted eps are fun, I don't want to see three or four "fun" XF eps in a row.
