I am anxiously awaiting the new BBT episodes (9/22 I think for the new season).

Looks like Constantine has been placed in the death spot right from the start.  Too bad, he's a cool character.  Love to see the Swamp Thing make an appearance!!!

Up against Gotham though!  Hope Officer Gordon can successfully kick Sheldon and Leonard's butts.

Big Bang is only moved to Mondays until the end of October due to football on Thursday.  Besides, this is what we all have a DVR for (record one thing, watch another).

I have been reading some of the spoiler sites for news on BBT.  Sounds like some significant changes around the Penny character.  Can't wait to seem them

Sure, but my understanding is that only a smaller percentage of cable customers actually subscribe to and use DVR features even when it's available.  I think the whole concept of day/time of a show and what it's up against on other networks is still pretty important to a show's success or failure.  I'm just hoping (albeit without knowing how good the actual show is) that Gotham doesn't have problems being up against the hugely popular BBT.  They seem to be targeting the same demographic with these shows too.

Yeah, I think you are right.  I think many people don't record much even if they have that ability - which is silly to me. I couldn't live without my TIVO these days.  Too many shows go head-to-head that I like.

DVRs?  Time to see what'll be on Hulu (Agents of SHIELD, Supernatural?, ...), and what I'll have to buy on Amazon (BBT, Walking Dead, ...).
