CBS just announced their fall 2006 line-up and it appears they’ve shuffled around their schedule a bit. In addition to the time changes, they’ve added a few new shows to their roster. It seems as though the theme for this season’s new programs on CBS is one-word titles. ‘The Class’ will follow ‘How I Met Your Mother’ on Monday evenings. ‘Smith’ (the new Ray Liotta drama) will follow ‘The Unit’ on Tuesday nights and ‘Shark’ will follow ‘CSI’ on Thursday nights.
Quite a few people are up in arms over the line-up changes on CBS, NBC and ABC. While the networks hope the changes will boost ratings, viewers are frustrated because many of the time-changes are causing conflicts with their other shows. CBS has made this problem nearly a non-issue for most viewers. Innertube was recently launched on their website. It offers most of their shows (eg. CSI, Amazing Race, etc) streaming through their website. As the programs are ad-supported, the feature is currently free.
Again, a shout-out to Entertainment Weekly for offering the line-up in list-form. Sundays
