CBS to Push Sunday Slate Back 30 Minutes on Days of NFL Doubleheaders

Published by Posted on

CBS is trying out a new play it hopes will ease primetime confusion — and save fans of shows such as The Good Wife and The Mentalist much frustration! — on the days the network hosts NFL doubleheaders. On Sundays featuring back-to-back afternoon football games, CBS will push back its entire primetime lineup half an hour in the Eastern and Central time zones. That means 60 Minutes will begin at 7:30/6:30c, leading into Big Brother/The Amazing Race at 8:30. The Good Wife follows at 9:30, and the relocated The Mentalist closes the night at 10:30. Though DVRs and on-screen cable guides will automatically pick up on the shifts, the affected Sundays are as follows: Sept. 16 and 23; Oct. 7 and 21; Nov. 4 and 18; and Dec. 2, 16 and 30. Also to be noted: Primetime start times in Mountain and Pacific time zones will not change.The move is in response to doubleheader day overages – which traditionally make it difficult for fans to know exactly when primetime shows will begin – as well as NFL’s recently announced kickoff time change, which pushes everything back 10 minutes more. It was previously confirmed that The Mentalist, which was at risk of airing at godknowswhen o’clock, will make full episodes available online the next day. Fans of CBS’ Sunday evening programs can sign up for schedule alerts via email, text and social media at www.cbs.com/eye-lerts.

Since the beginning of the show we are used to see Robin's character on The Mentalist, Teresa Lisbon, wearing a cross chain. She is never without it. But what is the reason why she always wears it? Robin finally answered this question on whosnews.usaweekend.com Click on Read More to read her answer. Attention! Read it only if you want to know before the show eventually reveales it! ;-) Thanks @ LikeCheapWine  , liery- RobinTunneyforum  for the heads up.

Another new interview released by FoxNews in which Robin talks about her new movie released today, Looking Glass, and also some of her iconic roles such as in Craft and Empire Records. Robin Tunney has starred in some of the most iconic films from the ‘90s, but these days she’s opening a creepy motel alongside Nicolas Cage just for a good thrill. The duo star as a married couple in “Looking Glass,” a voyeuristic film where they are faced with disturbing, unexplained events occurring inside of what should be a desert oasis. Tunney, who captivated teens in cult classics like “Empire Records” and The Craft,” said she’s been waiting for years to work alongside Cage —and it was worth it. Fox News spoke with Tunney about what surprised her the most about Cage, her favorite memory with Arnold Schwarzenegger and whether she stays in touch with her former cast mates from “The Craft.” To continue reading the interview, click on Read More.

I still have to realize myself if this is just a work of my imagination, or if it is real, so bear with me if this post will sound a little too much incoherent! ;) I received yesterday an e-mail from Robin Tunney's personal assistant who very kindly passed along a message from Robin, in which she thanks all the fans involved in the Birthday Project Video that I shared here on Robin's Birthday day. ( I remind you the link of the Birthday Project, created by  @Totorsg  :  LINK  ) So here's the message, and enjoy it everyone! ** Before you ask me, yes this is all true. I made sure myself to verify it! ;) ** And just a few words from me. When I opened this website, I had no idea what this project would become. It was just a little blog at the beginning, but thanks to it I started to know a lot of Robin's fans. Some of them have become Friends.  Robin, you really mean a lot to us, you mean a lot to me, not just for your Art but becuase of all the beautiful people I
