CBS is The Crazy Ones for renewing 18 shows but not that one.
March 13th, 2014 under CBS. [ Comments: none ]


Yesterday CBS announced that they picked up The Big Bang Theory for 3 more seasons and today they said that 18 of their current shows will also be joining that one in the fall.
Those 18 shows that are joining TBBT and Survivor are, 2 Broke Girls, Mike & Molly, Mom, NCIS, NCIS: LA, Person of Interest, Criminal Minds, The Millers, Two and a Half Men, Undercover Boss, Hawaii Five-0, Blue Bloods, Amazing Race, The Good Wife, 60 Minutes and 48 Hours. So what is missing? Still waiting to find out there fate are The Mentalist, The Crazy Ones, Intelligence and the yet to air Friends with Better Lives.
I get why they picked up everything except I don’t understand why they renewed the depressing Mom over the delightfully funny The Crazy Ones. I bet they are waiting to see how Friends with Better Lives does before they make a decision, but still I would rather have more of Robin Williams, Sarah Michelle Gellar and James Wolk over Mom and How I Met Your Dad. You know, they are going to pick up the latter even though the original has been beyond painful to watch for the last several years. Why are we seriously still watching How I Met Your Mother?

The Millers take a vacation, Reign has a wedding and Saint George debuts!
March 6th, 2014 under CBS, FX, The CW. [ Comments: none ]


Tonight at 8:30p on CBS The Millers go to the Bahamas. Nathan (Will Arnett) and Ray (J.B. Smoove) decide to take a much needed vacation, but when Ray hurts himself Nathan has no choice but to go by himself. Or so he thought because his good friend, Ray, gave his ticket to Nathan’s mother, Carol (Margo Martindale) and she shows up to surprise her son. So all that rest and relaxation he was hoping to get is being washed away like a message in a bottle. That is until Carol meets a guy played by Tommy Chong and then the two of them are both really relaxed. How relaxed? So much so they don’t want to leave, so will they?
Meanwhile back at home, Debbie (Jayma Mays) finds out that her husband wrote loves songs for his ex when he was teen (played by the hot singer Austin Mahone) and she wants to know why Adam (Nelson Franklin) has never written one for her. So he tries to write one for her, but it just doesn’t come to him. Will he be able to prove how much he loves her, or will he be getting divorce like his in-laws? Tune into this high-larious episode to find out what happens.


Then at 9p on The CW it is time for a white wedding on Reign. Mary’s (Adelaide Kane) mom (Amy Brenneman) comes for a visit and she has some big news. She says that the Queen of England has died and Mary is set to succeed her. That means the Queen of Scots needs to get married now. Who will she marry, Sebastian (Torrance Coombs) or Francis (Toby Regbo) who is back at the castle? You just have to tune in to see who she walks down the aisle with because you know you are dying to know who it will be.


Also at 9p, but over at FX, George Lopez’s new sitcom Saint George makes it heavenly debut.
Lopez plays a successful entrepreneur, who gives back to the community by working as a teacher in a multicultural school. Besides doing all of that the recently divorced man lives with his mom, Alma (Olga Merediz), and she is on his case about everything. Besides dealing with her, he also deals with his uncle, Tio (Danny Trejo), and his cousin, Junior (David Zayas). If that is not enough family for him to put up with, his wife, Mackenzie (Jenn Lyon) is still very much in his life.
On tonight’s series premiere George tries dating again and it is even harder than the first time. In the upcoming weeks, the sitcom will tackle issues in a very funny way that you can only do on basic cable.
Saint George proves that George Lopez has stuck gold twice in the TV world!

Who wants to enter the CBS sweepstake to win free Colonoscopy?
February 17th, 2014 under CBS. [ Comments: none ]


While most networks have sweepstakes where the dream prize is a trip to LA or NY plus a chance to visit the set of one of their top rated shows, CBS Cares‘ prize is literally a pain in the a$$. That’s because they will fly you to NY to get a free Colonoscopy and who wouldn’t want that? I know, everyone!
The sadder and scarier part, this isn’t the first time that CBS Cares have offered this prize. Thus that means that they got enough entries the last time to warrant doing it again. I guess people will do anything for a free trip to The Big Apple. Wouldn’t it be better just to eat a big apple a day, so that you could keep the doctor away from their?
BTW I am not saying that Colonoscopies are bad, I am just saying that giving away one as a prize is.

CBS will air Thursday Night Football starting in the fall
February 5th, 2014 under CBS. [ Comments: none ]


CBS announced today that they will be airing 16 Football games in the fall, 14 of which will be played on Thursday nights and 2 on Saturdays. CBS and the NFL Network will air 8 early and late season games simultaneously.
What that means for CBS’s successful Thursday night shows like The Big Bang Theory and The Millers is a mystery as of now. It will also be interesting to see how the other networks will react to this news. NBC said last month at the TCAs they weren’t sure if they will continue airing comedies on Thursdays and this news might’ve put the final nail that coffin.
Personally, as a girl who doesn’t really care too much about football, I think CBS is making a mistake. As a person who watched the Super Bowl like over 111 millions others, I know this is a smart business decision. In other words it is a foul to me, but a touchdown for CBS.

January 7th, 2014 under Bill Lawrence, CBS. [ Comments: none ]


Josh Holloway is back on TV tonight at 9p in CBS’s Intelligence and you will want to get lost on this show. Gabriel Vaughn (Holloway) has a chip implanted his brain that makes him a walking computer. He is America’s most prized possession and Riley Neal (Meghan Ory) is brought on to protect him. Neal was working for the President and she’s the best Secret Service person out there. She thinks protecting the President is the most important job in the country, but he thinks protecting Vaughn is even more important. So now she is protecting the humanputer, who is more human than computer. Which means he still lets emotions control him, like finding out what happened to his CIA wife, who disappeared 5 years ago and is believed to have changed sides. He won’t give up searching for her, and because of that he puts his life in danger. He also risks his life when he uses his knowledge to stop the bad guys. Each week Neal and him will use his computer brain to keep the world safe. So tune in for the exciting show that moves to Mondays at 10p after tonight’s debut.

Then at 10p, grab a bottle of wine and change the dial over to TBS because Cougar Town is back for its 5th season tonight. In the premiere episode, Jules (Courteney Cox) walks in on her son, Travis (Dan Byrd) and Laurie (Busy Phillips) having sex in the shower and the three of them will never be the same. How will this effect their dynamic.
Bobby (Brian Van Holt) has come into a lot of money, thanks to PennyCan being an international hit, and Grayson (Josh Hopkins) wants some of the money he owes him back. No matter how many hints Grayson drops, Bobby doesn’t get it. Will Jules second husband ever get the money back from her first one?
Finally, Andy (Ian Gomez) has been letting his toddler son, Stan, watch A Nightmare on Elm Street, and now the little terror is terrified. How will Andy correct his error? You have to see it to believe it!
So tune in for a sitcom that gets funnier with age!
