Reply to 'what if @CBS cancel @Mentalist_CBS' - "Don't worry yet -- #TheMentalist has been picked up for seasons 5 and 6. #Yay."
Follow-up tweet:
"It wasn't widely reported, but it's not a secret. Networks sometimes pick up for two seasons." |

I was just going to post that. That's very interesting that they got a two season pickup. If that's accurate. Hopefully it is. |

The scheduling is worrying me a bit. I just hope Mentalist gains viewership. Just because they've been picked up for 2 seasons doesn't mean that CBS won't cancel the show if ratings don't pick up.
If the show is on so late, who would still be watching? How many people DVR the show and how much impact does DVR have on a show? |

It seems inevitable that the viewer figures will be lower on Sunday night, but CBS will be expecting that and will view its performance in the context of that difficult slot. I expect Warner Bros were concerned about the move, and they could easily have sold the show to another network, so I think the 2 year pick-up was given as reassurance to them that the show would not be cancelled.

Well, then I will just be optimistic and trust that the show has enough loyal watchers to keep it going for next 2 seasons and possibly more.
Maybe the later time slot will allow the show more freedom as to content. They did say that Jane will get darker this season 5, |

Quote (Fran) The timeslot is the same - 10pm.
I read somewhere here that it may be pushed past 10:30 due to the NFL. Is this confirmed? It would be annoying for viewers if they keep changing the time slot.
Anyway, it wouldn't affect me since I don't live in the US.
Thanks for the info. |

I've thought about this before and dismissed the idea as too difficult to arrange. Time is short, but I've had an idea that might work, and other members may have better ideas, so I'll start a thread about it under 'Simon Chat', then we can discuss it properly. The thread is here: http://thebakerboy.ucoz.com/forum/2-113-1 |
