CBS is making a triple play involving three of its popular comedies.
The Big Bang Theory, originally scheduled to usher in Mom at 7:30 p.m. (central) on Mondays, instead will continue to double up on that night until Thursday Night Football ends its run.
New episodes of Big Bang are set for 7 p.m., followed by 7:30 p.m. repeats through Monday, Oct. 13th. CBS had opened the new TV season on Sept. 22nd with two new Big Bangs in that hour.
Mom, which had been set for a Monday, Sept. 29th Season 2 premiere, is going to Thursdays instead. Its season premiere now won’t be until Oct. 30th at 7:30 p.m., with Big Bang leading off the night after CBS’ half-season with the NFL ends on Oct. 23rd.
The Millers, originally scheduled for a Thursday, Oct. 30th Season 2 launch, will get the post-Big Bang Monday slot on Oct. 20th and 27th. The Millers then will call Thursdays home again, beginning on Jan. 8th. On Jan. 5th, Mom will go to Mondays.
Not yet hopelessly confused? There’s this, too.
The 2 Broke Girls season premiere will be on Monday, Oct. 27th at 7 p.m. And on Thursday, Oct. 30th, Big Bang and Mom will be followed by the season premiere of Two and a Half Men, the first episode of a new sitcom The McCarthys and the season premiere of Elementary.
Don’t bother marking your calendars. They’d be a hopeless mess by the time you finished.
