Wake up, CBS!

From Knox News, Tele-buddy's Tinseltown Tales:

"High School Musical 2" set a cable record on Friday. More than 17 million viewers tuned to the Disney Channel sequel, setting a record for the all-time biggest basic cable audience . It was also the all-time biggest made-for-basic-cable telepicture, the Disney Channel said.
To compare: "The Sopranos" finale on HBO had 11.9 million.

Also per the Disney Channel: it was the most-watched TV-movie anywhere since the 2005 premiere of the Keri Russell-Skeet Ulrich period drama, The Magic of Ordinary Days (with 18.7 million viewers) on CBS.


Why doesn't CBS broadcast an encore of this wonderful Hallmark Hall of Fame movie that earned more viewers than the much-hyped HSM2? Not only would it attract an audience familiar with the Hallmark reputation for quality, but Skeet Ulrich's incredible performance would draw viewers interested in seeing his work on "Jericho".

CBS Watch June 2007

Just another example of how "nuts" CBS is, the June 2007 issue of CBS Watch features an article entitled: Jericho's 5 Biggest Secrets and quotes such as:

"It's the unlikeliest of hit shows..."

"Jericho, one of the riskiest dramas to come to TV in years, has emerged as one of the season's strongest new shows, thanks to a shocking premise that surprised even the critics."




CBS do you read your OWN magazine? I think it's time you woke up and realized the mistake you made and fix it. Bring back our Jericho!
