William George Ferguson...

In fact, the half/hour listings without comments, could be addictive.

Obveeus...

I agree. I love seeing the increase/decrease mid show for these hour longs.
I had no idea there were that many people out there watching only the second
half of the one hour dramas. I guess 'plot' really is over-rated?

William George Ferguson...

So HIMYM doesn't have to be faster than the wolf, just faster than The
Class :)

Obveeus...

Yep...and next year HIMYM will probably be paired with some other weak herd
member. Until comedy catches on again with America, there really isn't
much reason for CBS to add too many more comedies to the lineup. Best to
just keep 3 and try one new one each season.
