CBS pilot: Three Rivers -- news and discussion - Part 2

[wpgrace]

And what progress on the SAG contract? Did I miss the news? Not that I'm not usually the very last one to hear H'wood news... but progress??

LisaS posted this reference on MLD http://www.variety.com/article/VR111800 ... id=13&cs=1 noting that a tentative agreement had been reached.

If this is duplicate or off-topic, do with it what you will.

Thank you Little r... I had not seen this before!!!

OK, please don't throw tomatoes but I found this link to a blog with an inside connection to CBS. According to this blogger's source, there are several schedules being discussed. CBS is apparently pretty much sticking with its current schedule and cancelling very few shows (if any). All the schedules have the new NCIS show being slotted on Sunday nights at 8:00 p.m. and the Mentalist being moved to Thursday nights after CSI. That’s one of the reasons I believe this may be in the up and up. The heartbreaking part is that NONE OF THE SCHEDULES HAVE THREE RIVERS IN THEM. I just wanted to bring this up because I don't want us getting our hopes really high and then having them dashed to the ground a month from now. Here's the link:

She may have some great industry connections, but I wonder -- has anyone heard of her?

^ this was posted just 2 weeks after they were done shooting the pilot i would think that it's a little early to have a shedule for september no ? i'm guessing that the new NCIS is included because it's already a lock.

Uh, no.

I would like to think that if she had some type of connections, that might have been mentioned in her profile.

Waiting till up-fronts for the real scoop.

Amyvil, you are right this kinda news, is somewhat depressing, but unless Julie is Nina's long lost sister, I don't know how a housewife from Rosevile, Michigan would have information that big name Hollywood insiders don't know right now. If she does have connections, or someone she knows works for CBS how high up on the food chain could they be giving information to a housewife blogger. Hey, what do I know, this could be very true, but right now if I was the person giving info to old Julie, I hope they register with monster.com.

A review of the script (negative)

Well, at least he said it was the best of the three medical series that CBS was considering.

[Fleur de Lisa]

Everyone certainly is entitled to their opinion. I am sure that if I had access to the script, I would think it was pretty wonderful. What I did like, is that he said that Alex stood out---no shock there!

Swine Flu, now bloggers, don't you love Mondays! Yes, opinions, and there will be hundreds, Fluer, only CBS, and them alone, will give us the right answer on or a little before May 20th (?).

This all makes me nervous... I don't do this unknown crud very well...

I'll come out from behind the couch on Wednesday, but likely crawl right back afterwards... *shivvers* (and not the good kind)

[Fleur de Lisa]

Exactly, nayp.

I anticipate some info leaking out prior to May 20, in the way of entertainment shows possibly speculating as to which pilots have a better chance at being picked up. I will be keeping a close eye on reputable sites, such as EOnline for advance word about 3R.

I would pay attention if an article is written byt someone with access to sources and/or real info.
Other than that, talk is cheap.

First of all, I think this is crap because it has "Confessions of a Contractor" on all variations, and on everything that I've read, that concept/show has been dropped. So that show doesn't even exist at the moment.

So after spotting that, and with no real "connections", I'm just going to ignore this article/listing. There's no sense in getting worked up about a unknown bloggers thoughts on CBS scheduling when she can't even be bothered to get some basic facts right.

No tomatoes, Amy.

A for SS.

And a for me.
