WTH! The networks are trying to kill me (AND my favorite shows)!


I don't watch a lot of TV.  REALLY, I SWEAR I DON'T.

I watch CBS for two hours on Monday, and then maybe an hour of shows two or three other days of the week.

But I just read in TV Guide that they're moving CHUCK to Monday nights on NBC, and now I just found out they're moving BOSTON LEGAL to Monday nights on ABC!!!

Good grief!  My Tivo will explode! 

This is horrible news.  Obviously all three can't be ratings winners.  I just know this is the death of Chuck and possible Boston Legal too!  crying.gif

Those were the only other shows I watched except for a few basic cable shows.

Damn networks.  angered.gif

I guess the good news is my fall schedule won't be dictated by TV.

Monday nights are packed full. Other than that the ONLY other show I watch is on Thursday nights and that's only 30 minutes (30 Rock).

Guess this fall I can finally get that life I've been thinking about nod.gif

Are you SERIOUS!  look, Tivo will ONLY record two shows, and if you're recording two shows you gotta be watching one of them!  angered.gif

What the heck, I'm gonna have to run two Tivo's on Monday nights!  In 40 years of loyal TV watching I have never seen this happen before.  They have someone identified ALL of my favorite shows except for one, and put them on the same 3 hour block.  hmm.gif

Here's the way they stack up:

---------------------7 PM --------------7:30----------8:00-----------8:30-----------9:00-------------

ABC (BOSTON LEGAL)

CBS BIG BANG HOW I MET... TWO MEN

NBC ( CHUCK )( HEROES )



That's just the shows I'm interested in because those are just the ones I looked up.

Looking at the grid, if the times stay the same it could be ok.

I can tape BIG BANG, HIMYM, and TWO MEN, watch CHUCH, HEROES and LEGAL.

Then save the recorded shows for Thursday night to watch along with 30 ROCK and I have only two nights of television (until REAPER and MYTHBUSTERS returns, then I got two hours of TV on Wednesday nights too).

I still don't know how DOLLHOUSE fits into the Monday night schedule hmm.gif

Oof, so if Woo is right, and I've never known her to be wrong *cough cough*, the DOLLHOUSE will be opposite of "Chuck" AND "Big Bang Theory" & "How I Met Your Mother".

By the way, TV Guide LOVES HIMYM. They rave about it every issue and last week said it deserves to be CBS's highest rated comedy, not Two & A Half Men

D'oh, that's right

Wednesday is Ghosthunters, Myth Busters and Reaper.

They're screwing with Reaper too this year. Not bringing it back until mid season.

I started watching The Cleaner during the summer, and really liked it, but I can never remember what night/time/channel it's on.   Usually I catch it by accident when I'm channel surfing.  hmm

I don't see Dollhouse on the Fall schedule. Where will 24 go in January if Dollhouse will be Monday in January?
