Belle they will never do that (at least not in the next couple seasons), TAR generates more money per minute then 60 minutes, but 60 minutes is such an established part of CBS' image that it will never happen.

THough if it did.  It would pretty much give TAR its most successful episode in terms of viewers and demos that the show has ever had (and easily).  But it will never, ever happen.

I understand.  I just wish either 60 Minutes would go or that they switched TAR to a different day.

mswood:
60 minutes is here for the long haul.  It will remain on Sunday in that time period long after it stops actually making money.  CBS will take a lose before moving that show.  That show more then any other is CBS. 

They will not risk pissing off their brand name show for a reality program.  It wont happen.

As for moving to TAR to a different night.  TAR has enjoyed great success and stability being on Sunday.  That wouldn't be the case on any other night. 

For the long term health of the show, this time slot has been very, very good to us.

theschnauzers:
As I mentioned in another thread, the overrun is 58 minutes; I believe that may be the second longest overrun TAR had on Sunday since it moved to Sundays.

The contract with the NFL says that they have to switch over to the last game being played. Btw, the NFL makes CBS a lot more money than TAR......so get used to it. I really cant really believe so many people whine over such a small matter. Year after year, TAR after TAR.....same constant whining every week. Grow up people.
