I think that CBS might be holding out on renewals until they see the numbers for these post-strike episodes. Hopefully they’ll at least post ratings on par with their season averages.

CBS really does have to open itself up beyond the procedural drama, even though I love Numbers and Cold Case, HIMYM is the only comedy that I watch consistently on the network. And I still can’t believe 2 1/2 Men manages to get so many viewers. Is someone switching the numbers?

Btw, speaking of NBC has anyone seen the previews for “My Dad is better than your dad”? Seriously? FNL might get canceled so we can watch middle-aged, middle-class fathers compete for their kids love?

Linda: yeah, I realized that shortly after I posted But, I guess in a way it’s another example of how little I watch CBS to begin with.

How could they NOT bring back HiMyM? That show’s hilarious. Plus, if it gets cancelled then we’ll never get to meet the mother! And we’ll also not ever get to witness my dream storyline: Barney and Robin get together.

I think The Unit is in limbo too.

Also, Journeyman was NBC.

if how i met your mother doesn’t come back i may have to completely boycott CBS. other then journeyman and the unit i can’t think of anything else i watched on it.
the big bang theory is pretty decent too, but if it comes down to it no other show they have is nearly as important to me as HIMYM.

For those worried about MOONLIGHT. The show has yet to get an official second season, but I’m willing to bet it gets picked up assuming it performs along the same lines as it did before it went off the air.

Linda B., I’m concern about Moonlight too. My understanding is that it is neither cancelled — yet — nor renewed — yet. If true, we’re in waiting game limbo.

I’ve got a bad feeling we’re going to be left with a CBS Monday that airs no comedies, considering how “funny” Two and a Half Men, Rules of Engagement, and The Big Bang Theory are. What a pathetic lineup that would be.

I hope we’ll at least get last minute pickups of both HIMYM and Christine. Christine would seem to have the better chance since it won an Emmy and gets over 9 million viewers, but you’ve gotta remember that it has a big lead-in. HIMYM starts off the night every week.
