I'm guessing "The Defenders" is the 1st to go.

**3TrueFans** · 05-19-2010, 04:13 PM

I can't believe they actually turned the **** my dad says twitter feed into a show. I can't decide if that's better or worse then when they made the cavemen commercial into a show.

**cyfanatic** · 05-19-2010, 04:35 PM

Not thrilled that they moved The Big Bang Theory to Thursday...lots already on that night...oh well...guess that is why I have multiple DVRs!

**kcclones** · 05-19-2010, 04:38 PM

You three have pretty much covered my thoughts on CBS...

**heyguy85** · 05-19-2010, 05:31 PM

Big Bang Theory was the perfect fit following those other 3 shows. When does this scheduling start?

**Three4Cy** · 05-19-2010, 05:37 PM

Moving Big Bang Theory is about the stupidest thing they could do.

**ISUKyro** · 05-19-2010, 05:46 PM

Considering I let my DVR get everything I hardly ever watch live tv - but even at that I don't like the Big Bang Theory at that spot :(

That show just got the boot the other day. I think it was because of cost.
