Thread Name: BS: CBS' 'Solid Line Up'
Subject: RE: BS: CBS' 'Solid Line Up'
Sinsull, as I have been reading about the new TV seasons, it occurred to me that the only network shows we watch, here, are on CBS. Mrs. Coast is going to be pissed when she finds the Mentalist moving to 10pm, Fridays; she goes to bed at that hour. I cannot think of any show we watch on ABC, NBC or Fox more than once or twice a season.

We watch no 'reality shows'...well we did watch two episodes of a now canceled one, but only because my youngest cousin was involved in its production. Honestly, we found it awful.

Mostly, I watch TCM for old movies, PBS week ends for old BritComs, and ancient history on the History or Discovery channels.

What I miss most on TV are the anthology dramas, Studio One, Playhouse 90, etc. the likes of which I am assured will never return to this medium owing to high, high production costs with no aftermarket to help recoup them.
