Glad for Criminal Minds..love the show

I am surprised the other two CSI shows have been renewed. Both shows are doing well in their timeslots. Actually CSI Miami is doing better than The Good Wife and that show got renewed.

And I hope a Gifted Man gets renewed...love the show....I am sure picking up season 1 on dvd when it comes out.

I'm not surprised by CSI Miami and New York not getting picked up yet. "Doing well" your timeslot often isn't enough for CBS, CBS has higher standards than the other networks, especially since rarely do their new shows outright fail, so they can afford to cut loose shows other networks might keep around longer. CBS has squeezed all the money they can out of the CSI spinoff twins. Good Wife got renewed for two main reasons, it's getting close to the number of episodes needed for syndication, does well among rich households. Also helps that CBS CEO Les Moonves's wife Julie Chen is a fan of the show.

CBS 's shows are getting old. All these CSI shows. But i am very surprised as well that the two other CSI shows arent picked up yet

[Toups]

Yay for The Good Wife! I was a bit worried since the show has low demos, even for CBS standards. They hit a 1.7 for their last episode.

[MontyB]

The Good Wife and Person of Ineterst!! Yay!

[Cheap21]

I donht watch anything on CBS except for Big Brother and its not on there.

[wingwalker]

Cheap, Big Brother airs during the Summer and CBS already announced it's returning this summer.

[Soapsuds]

Person of Interest is growing on me and apparently on others too...its been getting great numbers as of late...their viewership is increasing.

[EricMontreal22]

All the mags have been discussing that the other CSI's might finally cut their losses...

I love Patrick Wilson--mainly from his brilliant stage career (I saw him in the tour of Carousel), and Little Children--but just can't get into A Gifted Man.

[Soapsuds]

I like the show...it doesnt hurt that they show Patrick Wilson shirtless as often as they can....hehe...but seriously I liked the show from day one.

[Mr. Vixen]

The Good Wife and 2 Broke Girls are the two I cared about most, and they got renewed. Thank God.

[DRW50]

Is 2 Broke Girls still full of racism?

[JaneAusten]

Yeah to The good Wife and Person of Interest

I hope they let 2 1/2 men go. I was never really a fan but the show without Charlie Sheen just doesn't work IMO. And not a fan of his either.

[Soapsuds]

The show kind of reminded me of Alice....with just two girls instead of three....but I just hate this show...i dont find it funny one bit. i cant believe the high demos it has....boggles my mind.
