CBS can kiss my ass for the sh*t they are pulling, by actually pulling new episodes from online. Networks just don't get it at all. It's not just CBS, but all of them. Their mentality is flawed. They think they can "hook" new viewers by giving them a taste and then expect us to run to the TV when they purposely take away our options online. It won't work with me or the viewing public at large.

ABC tried this idiotic move with V. I was way into the new series for Season 1 and was looking forward to Season 2. Alas, there was no Season 2 online and I bailed on the show as did a lot of other people. TNT is now doing the same and I haven't cared less about resuming my watching habits with other favorite shows like Southland, Leverage, Falling Skies.

FX is guilty as well. They pulled Sons of Anarchy and Justified, these two being all time faves of mine.

NBC is guilty of doing it with Chuck this season.

So, CBS, get your head out of your asses because your "method" of luring new viewers is flawed. When you hook people into watching your shows online....you are hooking people that are always accustomed to watching their shows online and are already done with the old way of watching stuff on a TV. So your scare tactics will always fail with most people and then you run the risk or alienating those same people that keep your shows alive.

As great as Person Of Interest is, and it's my favorite new show this season, I won't be jerked around because you guys are idiots. And trust me, you guys are.

My 2 cents....

....which by the way will go to other Networks that don't pull crap like what you are doing. Feel free to delete this and try to bury my opinion to save face, because I know you will do exactly that.

This was my post over at the CBS forum and I wanted to make sure I kept it alive since I know for a fact that it will be pulled down. Have to save it here so that the dumb f uckers over there can't bury this completely.
