REDUCING DVRMAGGEDON:  After much complaining, CBS has finally realized that they need to recognize that football always delays their Sunday schedule, so on weekends when there's a national doubleheader, the official CBS Sunday schedule on the East Coast will be:
  • 7:30--60 Minutes
  • 8:30--The Amazing Race
  • 9:30--The Good Wife
  • 10:30--The Mentalist
  • 11:30--Local news.
It's not quite a perfect solution, as this schedule is only effective for national doubleheaders, and leaves the possibility of a game running short and CBS having to fill 15 minutes with something weird (because of rights issues with NBC, I believe they can't do highlights) or a game running into overtime.
