They do it every TV season, but it drives me crazy. Especially when I’m watching the shows that they move around.

So last night I was all set to watch Threshold after TAR8, but instead a repeat of Criminal Minds came on. A repeat! Now, I realize that Threshold has been cancelled; is that immediate cancellation or just not renewing it for next season? Because I really want to know what’s up with the alien baby.

In the meantime, they moved the Tuesday 10pm show that I was watching to Fridays (Close to Home) to move Threshold to Tuesday, where they must have been hoping the post-TAR crowd would tune in. And I guess showing an extra episode of Criminal Minds is in that mix, too.

And then there are the seasonal pre-emptions that occur; one being the Rockerfeller Christmas tree lighting show tonight that is booting E-Ring at 8pm. I’d prefer E-Ring, to be honest. Fortunately, I have stuff recorded from last week that I can watch instead. Or maybe just watch CSI on Spike.

CSI, now that’s a great show. I can watch that anytime and countless times. Quality that.

I’m also wondering what happened to good shows that kind of disappeared last season - like Eyes. I loved that show.
