In a last ditch effort to bring the ratings up for "How I Met Your Mother" CBS will shift it to "The Big Bang Theory's" former Monday 8:30 PM time period when it returns with new episodes on the same night. CBS's hit freshman comedy "The Big Bang Theory" will lead off television's Number One comedy block when it moves to Mondays at 8:00 PM, beginning March 17. The critically acclaimed ""How I Met Your Mother" is averaging 8 million viewers. With original episodes, it has declined in last year's Monday time period by -18% in adults 18-49 and -20% in viewers "Theory," which was recently renewed for next season, is averaging 8.4 million viewers. With original episodes, it has improved last year's Monday time period by +15% in adults 18-49 and +5% in viewers |

The problem w/all networks is that they get one or to HUGE hits and then if the other shows don't pull in the numbers they cancel it. When are they going to learn that people have to get used to a show, they have to invest in it and that we're not typically going to do the same with a new show! I hate network executives. HIMYM is an amazing comedy... |
