It was an even shorter version of what was shown after last week's episode. So nope...nothing different. Just shorter. I was just excited to see it.

I know I'm late to the party, but I wanted to thank Coco for the link to the Canadian promo.

Is it Wednesday, yet??

Awww... it's never to late to say thanks, MLC... how polite you are!

And regarding the name mispronunciation... does HE not have any people who can explain to CBS how to spell and pronounce their client's name?

ARGH. Evidently he doesn't grace. WE are his people. And we do it for the love of the man.
And, WTF?????? He friggin' worked allllllllll last year for CBS, is a lead in an upcoming pilot, got signed to a CBS film and there is no one at CBS that is aware that his name is being mispronounced???

Sorry, but this just really ticks me off. Show some respect for the man and his fans, and get his name right.

Falling off the

now.

Ya know....after everything that went on last year, you would think that the rab....sorry, dedicated fans would pounce on this and take offence (which, of course, we have). But for heaven's sakes, folks, I'm sure that more than one e-mail or phone call has been made about this little faux pas. How hard can it be to correct. It's a voice over, not rocket science.

I've got an idea. Since Alex did such wonderful voice overs as Mick, and Alex knows how to pronounce his own last name, why doesn't the network have him do a voice over for the episode? Hmmm?

Oh man. Wouldn't that be wonderful, dsr.

I really try to remain optimistic, but this makes me feel like the ML fans are getting another kick in the gut.

Oh well, guess we'll have the last laugh--when CM's numbers go throught the roof, when 3R get picked up, etc.

Can't keep us down!

I only saw one, about the spin off from NCIS. This Tuesday's episode introduces the spin off crew - the special projects group.

It came on right at the end of The Amazing Race. I was starting to worry that every other show seemed to be getting plugged during the 8:00 hour, but was relieved when I saw the ad almost at 9PM. Maybe they had to wait later in the evening to run it since it's a bit more....adult than some shows promos.

Two more days!

And isn't this banner fantastic?

You're welcome MLC

It was sheer luck I found it.

I just checked the CBS press site....

The Presidential Address will air from 8-9PM ET followed by Criminal Minds and then CSI:NY. So thankfully (!!) no schedule change for our guy's episode!!!

For those DVR'ing....I'd maybe add some minutes afterward or before just in case the episode doesn't start directly at 9PM. Just a thought.
