I hope CBS moves the Good Wife off Sundays next year. - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

It is so hard to watch this show. It is such a chore. I love The Good wife and The Mentalist but you just never know when they're going to be on. In the fall they're delayed by football. In March the NCAA Tournament and now The Masters. I never watch these shows live. I always DVR them but you just never know when they're going to be on. I have the Masters on in the background just so I'll know how far off the shows are. Unbelievable. I can't stand Golf . And people wonder why the ratings for these shows are so low. At least CBS renewed the shows.

I agree Sonny. This show doesn't get the respect it deserves. We watch it On Demand to avoid the commercials but that's not always reliable. They take their time putting them up sometimes. That and Blue Bloods.

I like to DVR it so I can watch it on another night. I usually watch it on Wednesdays. I'm still a few episodes behind though. The show's getting real good. I just got to the part where Alicia became a partner in the firm. Yea On-Demand is real slow especially with the CBS shows. I love Blue Blood too. I'm glad that show is coming back too. It's a survivor. I can't believe The Masters went an hour overtime.

It is annoying when it's delayed. I have the dvr set to record The Good Wife, plus the show after it (which I don't watch) in case CBS's schedule is running behind.

I know exactly how you guys feel - I would be tearing my hair out during football season because CBS aired Cold Case on Sunday nights. GRRRR...

...and I missed the Mentalist YET AGAIN!!!

whatever sports over-run caused my DVR to record basically the entire episode of TGW instead, and The Mentalist isn't on my Time Warner OnDemand for CBS, so the only way to catch it is either on the internet or wait for it to rerun (I missed the last new ep as well)

If you want you can set your dvr to record that show plus what follows it just to make sure you get to see it. Just a thought.

yeah, that's what i did this week - the problem is that i keep forgetting because I don't watch golf or bowling or football or monkey tennis or whatever other nonsense is causing all these stupid overruns

Mr. Television · 04-25-2013, 07:40 AM

I usually just figure how long the show goes overtime and reset my timings.
