Crud, I hope someone will be spoiling tonight.

It's Lent, I have church. AR is on at 7pm Central...that is DANG early no matter WHAT night.

Hopefully I will only miss one week, Easter is soon!

Maybe I should buy that DVD recorder today?

TAR is on at 7:00 CST and AI is on at 8:00 CST (the same time as Lost which really sucks, so I have to get my AI scoop here at Lost's 8:30 commercial break).

LOL...commercial break? Didn't think of that one.

Personally I've been skipping choir practice at church and coming home just in time to catch the eviction on the TV in the living room that my daughter THINKS is her's.

Lexie, are you still watching the TAR season 1 dvd's? I'm on disc 3 episode 1 and there was some interesting commentary by Drew and Kevin I thought I'd share in case you didn't listen:

** spoiler ** In the scene in the Indian village where EMily and mom are in the cab yelling at the locals, asking where the hotel was, there was a woman in a gorgeous teal dress who says twice Agra. I didn't notice it and obviously Emily and mom didn't hear it. But Drew/Kevin pointed it out and it sure sounds like she says Agra twice as she nodding to them.

Since TAR is not on tonight, boo-hoo, I'll probably watch ep 2 on disc 3.

Brenda, I watched Disc 3 on Sunday. Weekend time is Lexie-time and I usually lay on the couch with my cats and watch the entire disc in one afternoon. I mailed it on Monday and got my e-mail today that the final disc is in the mail. Soooo.... we will be having more Lexie-time this weekend as I watch the finale. I'm down to the Final Four.

Thanks for the spoiler commentary. I have to turn off the commentary because its too distracting. The best is yet to come for you as you watch this disc. I'm still really loving to watch Kevin and Drew and the two lawyers/best friends.

Don't even get me started on Team Guido.

I read this morning the ratings are down last week because of the time change and they were already down because of the family addition last time.
Here is an article

I think we all pretty much agree that the move to Wednesdays sucked. There was no reason to move it from Tuesday at 8:00 to Tuesday at 9:00. It was never up the monster American Idol!!! I have no problem with it being on Tuesday either at 8:00 or 9:00; however, I did keep my VCR set to tape it at 9:00 in case I fell asleep. Wednesdays at 7:00 seriously suck.

Lexie_girl - I agree that wednesdays at 7 suck. It seems like these shows always screw things up somehow.

The old time slot at 10:00 Eastern was horrid as well. They worked so hard to find an audience and then they went with the family version and now these time slots. Argh!

We have it on here though at 8:00 which for us is much better than the 10:00 time.

I'm in the minority, but I like Wednesdays at 8. I like to start watching it on dvr after it's started so I can skip the commercials, and waiting until 10 made me watch it live, commercials and all.

I just hope they can find a time and place where it will stay alive.

Mondays would be good for me.

I thought I read somewhere that the reason they moved it from Tuesdays at 8:00 to Tuesdays at 9:00 was so "The Unit" could follow NCIS and then CBS could be all military-like for two hours. I still have no clue why they moved it from Tuesdays at 9:00 to Wednesdays at 7:00.

The train wreck that was the Family Edition did not affect my viewing habits with the show. I would have intensely disliked the Weavers just as much on this edition even if there were only two on their team.

Well, it would have to be Mondays at 9:00 CST so as to not interfere with 24. I don't think even the boneheads in charge of scheduling at CBS would attempt to put TAR up against 24.... but you never know.

I'd watch TAR no matter when it was on. I just wish they'd find a good place and leave it there. Most people won't follow a show around when they keep changing the time on it. Makes me very worried for my favorite reality show. :-(

I agree Yellek. I always use the DVR whenever I can and skip commercials. So tonight, I'll start watching TAR sometime after 8:00 and forward through the commercials. Meanwhile the DVR can record two channels at once, so it will start recording AI at 8:30 and then I can forward through the commercials on AI once I finish looking at TAR.

Oh and Lost is on at 7:00 here so I can record it and watch it later as well.

It couldn't be better. But I do wish that they wouldn't keep switching it around. I don't want them to lose their audience.

wow, i have never watched even one episode of "24", but i don't think one of my sister's has ever missed one episode. i have never watched on CSI, either, not any of them in any city.
of course, the shows i don't get hooked on last forever and the ones i take a risk on get canceled!
maximum bob, brotherhood of poland new hampshire, karen sisco, the crumbs, etc.
