Bones new fall competition

So CBS decided to pull Survivor on Thursday nights at 8 ( where it was solidly winning the hour) and put it on Wed nights. Our new competion on the Thursday night time slot on CBS will be The Big Bang Theory and $#*! my dad says. Now I am the hugest fan of TBBT but I can safely say that for me it poses no threat, I will pick Bones over that show anyday. Not quite sure what CBS was thinking......

They were probably think Bones was right on their heels...it actually beat them one night...and it's been creeping closer and closer....and Wednesday nights is a dud these days so they are probably thinking they can look hotter on Wednesday nights.

I like TBBT but not a massive fan. Wouldn't be any competition for me.

I like to watch TBBT, but not enough to fear it will be a threat to Bones.

I think CBS just gave up LOL

I have never watched BBT...heck, I can't even think of anything I watch on CBS...LOL!

although...apparently TBBT averages 14 million viewers currently, and Bones averages around 10, so maybe it wasn't such a bad decision by CBS

hm dont watch TBBT, im sure it will just go back and forth with who wins the time slot. not really worried.

As long as Criminal Minds and BONES are not on at same time, all is good

GYAH!! We're both TBBT and Bones fans in this household. I'll probably let TBBT go to DVR while watching Bones live, since TBBT is a half hour sitcom while hour long Bones requires more attentive watching.

... plus DB is cuter than any of the Big Bang Theory guys. I loves me my geeks but I'll take DB hawtness anyday.

I love TBBT but Bones can beat it any day

This year I DVRed Flash Forward got hooked on it when it was rerun on Friday nights the first few weeks.

I love BBT it's my second favorite show. Will DVR it.

Ditto for my household. Been big BBT fans since the beginning, newer to Bones ... but will be letting BBT go to the DVR. It's hillarious, but it's not one of those shows that you sit and wonder/worry about what the next episode will be about. I can wait one more day to laugh, I can't wait one more day to see the next step in the Bones saga. I'm upset that they're messing up my Monday comedy night though.

And, double ditto on the hawtness part.

I think My Generation is going to be a failure this fall.

This means that we won't get Bones a day early in Canada any more...

I am a huge TBBT fan but, I'll probaly just watch it online or DVR it.

Yeah, why? Me curious too... Have they said anything, yet?

Bones is early in Canada because of Survivor. Unless they rearrange that, I think we might keep getting it early. Of course, it also depends on whatever Global picks up this fall...

Survivor has been rearranged. TBBT and Survivor are both CBS shows, CBS moved Survivor to Wed nights and put TBBT on Thurs at 8. TBBT is not a show that Global carries, which means that there is no conflict with the Thurs 8pm slot for them and we are likely going to be getting Bones on Thurs nights same as the U.S next season. But it's going to depend on what Global's fall schedule is I guess.

Damn...

I think TBBT (which I've heard is quite hilarious) airs in CTV up here.

Mind you maybe its a good thing now ashes to ashes is finsished

That's how I came to that conclusion.

That's going to wreck the Monday night line-up. Not happy. Will watch Bones without a question and catch TBBT in re-run or on demand. I always chose Bones over Survivor as well, because Survivor was on cable demand. Watched it the next day.

My Generation was concieved and is run by a guy who was on the writing team for Bones from 2005-2007 - which is when some the best episodes were penned - might be worth DVRing.
