This Just In: New TPIR MDS Date Set

I think there is some overlap, contrary to what advertisers believe.  Also, what would Fremantle gain by having its' #1 primetime show going up against its' #1 daytime show?

Nothing.  We'll all be gawking at Michelle Kwan and Sasha Cohen. :-)

Boy this is gonna be a tough call on the 14th.  Figure skating or TPIR?  If TPIR goes with an 8PM slot, I'll start there first because I think NBC will save its figure skating coverage for later on that hour.  However, if it's 9, the Olympics will kill some time for me before the MDS.

How is it a "tough call" if you already know exactly what you're going to do in essentially every possible situation?

(Not that I really care, but still, it's a stupid thing to say.)

The thing that I find puzzling is that "NCIS" has a history of not being affected by its competition--it gets over 10 million homes a week whether or not "Idol" is on.

If the Olympics is really going to be affecting things, it tells me that CBS doesn't think "NCIS" can hold up against the Olympics and is considering the MDS damaged goods.

CBS is set to air the next "Price is Right Million Dollar Spectacular" at 8:00PM/7C.
