These sound like great celebrities this cycle for MDP - it'll be interesting to see how well it does on Sundays, and whether or not it can beat Amazing Race in the slot.

Jude The Obscure · 12-05-2008, 12:52 AM

I love the return, but why air some reruns from the first cycle? why not a NEW episode with Neil Patrick Harris (he's great at the game)?

This is way old...but are you speaking of the episode where the lady's daughter killed her? That was Ashley Johnson from Growing Pains.

This show needs a permanent spot on the schedule. It's so much better than Survivor or the Amazing race.

If it does well on Sundays, CBS should split it up - only do 1 cycle of Amazing Race in the fall, then MDP for the rest of the season on Sundays.

Maybe even Saturdays would work - if Gameshow in my Head does decent, CBS should try and build a nice gameshow block on Saturdays.

CBS updates:

Monday, December 29
9:30PM GARY UNMARRIED (R)

Tuesday, January 20
9:00PM DREAM BIG DREAM: THE INAUGURATION OF BARACK OBAMA, THE 44TH PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: Anchored by Katie Couric, this one-hour CBS News special will highlight various aspects of this historic Presidential Inauguration. Among the stories: kids competing for tickets to the Inauguration in a creative contest being run by their school district; a 100-year-old woman who got out to vote on Election Day; civil rights alums who are busing up together; a 21-year-old woman who worked for 18 months on Obama's campaign; and students planning to go to the Inauguration with the Congressional Youth Leadership Council.

8:00-9:00PM SUPER BOWL’S GREATEST COMMERCIALS

Scoobiedoo30 · 12-17-2008, 03:24 PM

I am looking forward Superbowl's Greatest Commercial's on Janurary 31, 2008 at 7:00 pm CT Time.

JulieSomoski · 12-18-2008, 08:57 PM

Why doesn't CBS just move Gary to Mondays already? This is the 2nd encore they're airing on Mondays - they obviously want to

IMO, Christine is really losing out on Wednesdays. Even Gary Unmarried is beating it now. What CBS should do is try out Rules of Engagement in the slot come February, paired up with Gary Unmarried. Then, move Old Christine to Mondays at 9:30 once Worst Week ends.

If CBS does end up cancelling Old Christine at the end of the season (which is likely), I'm sure ABC will have no problem picking it up.

Jude The Obscure · 12-18-2008, 09:28 PM

I think CBS is surprised at how Christine is holding up on Wednesdays.

I think CBS should give it the confort of Mondays come February. It always did well on Mondays, but it seems to have lost its audience on Wednesdays. Either that, or they can stick out the bad ratings until the end of the season and just place Rules of Engagement on Mondays.
