I still think they need to flip Aliens in America with Everybody Hates Chris on Mondays. It will make for a better ethnic flow later in the evening, give EHC a better HUT level, and help prime Aliens in America for an eventual change in night. I say 'eventual, becasue sticking it at Sunday 7:30 for new episodes right now would kill it.

I don't think CW should expect Life is Wild to double its ratings on another night. That is wishful thinking on the part of a few fans.

I do think CW affiliates should avoid running 2&1/2Men promos from 8pm-9pm on Monday night. That is just foolish on their part.

Exactly. Promoting their syndicated fare makes sense most of the time, but not in the 1 hour time period right before the first runs of 2&1/2Men appear on that other network.

Are we surprised this is happpening? It's the CW. I think they just figure eh, it's pretty much over for our primetime, but maybe we can strengthen the older giant in CBS.

How was I being unfair in my 'bashing'? I specifically said that it was the affiliates doing the promos for 2&1/2Men right before it starts airing over on CBS. mushu-jj is misguided, as always. I just think the affiliates are being 'opportunistic' in a very short-sighted way. They want their afternoon programming to get higher ratings and don't seem to see that they might be hurting their own 9pm Monday show in the process.

You claimed that the CW network had given up on its primetime and was now intentionally being a shill for mother network CBS.
