While it's definitely the most prestigious and genre-bending of CBS's police procedurals, I would argue that "The Good Wife" is far and away the best example of prestige television on CBS.

Wonder if CBS has been trying to make Madam Secretary as "prestige" television. Possibly as an eventual replacement for The Good Wife.

That being said, let me join in the chorus that thinks it's complete BS that POI has been left off the midseason schedule.

Does anyone know if the remaining episodes have even started being filmed?

Yes, they've shown some sneaks of trying to boot the Machine up again and some difficulties it was having with facial recognition.

I find the difference between Scorpion and CSI: Cyber, is Scorpion seems to be more on the tongue-in-cheek side (without outright laughter) while CSI: Cyber attempts to be more "serious". But while in attempting to be more "serious", CSI: Cyber ends up being unintentionally funny/silly to me.


I don't know if anybody else feels this way about these two particular shows.

I watch both and find them momentarily involving but instantly forgettable once I delete them from the DVR. I recognize the ridiculousness of the Scorpio scenarios but still find the quips between the geniuses fun.


CSI: Cyber is a very poor show, and yet for some reason I do tune in. I like Arquette, Danson, and Van Der Beek and always find them interesting to watch. And since I know next to nothing about hacking, the improbabilities of what they do don't bother me.

Wonder how much things will change with the upcoming regime change at CBS.

Either CBS is going to run it this summer or it's being held in case the Criminal Minds spin-off or the new Rush Hour tanks early.

CBS's treatment of this show was, and continues to be, disgraceful.

POI executive producer JJ Abrams says 5th season will most likely be the last.
