As many of you know, CBS cancelled "Jericho" but agreed to bring it back after fans sent in 40000 (that's right forty-thousand) pounds of nuts, inspired by Jake Green's response to the New Bern leader about their surrender in the season finale. Well, CBS listened and brought back the show for 7 whole episodes. There was a lot of confusion over its start date and the time- I swear I saw three different dates and times. And when it finally comes back, they banish it to 10 pm on Tuesday nights. Had it not been for random flipping on Saturday night, when they re-ran the season premiere, I would have missed it all together. Not that there's anything else on at that time worth watching, but seriously- it couldn't have been on at like Sunday at 9? I don't know about the rest of you, but I have kids to get up in the AM and by 10, I'm just plain tired. So I DVR the show. But that doesn't count in the ratings game.
So, apparently we've got no one to blame but ourselves. We should've pushed ourselves to stay up past our bedtimes. Nevermind that it was apparently a huge download on bittorrent and Itunes. Nevermind that CBS put it in a sucky time spot when there were dozens of other spots it could've gone in because of the strike.
So whatever CBS. If you even think about cancelling "How I Met Your Mother" I will wash my hands of you. I don't need to watch "Survivor" (in fact, I'm really kind of over and have been for several seasons, but the hubby likes it).
