CBS promises ‘satisfying’ finale for long-running ‘CSI’

“This will be a very satisfying ending for all the “CSI” fans”, CBS Entertainment Chairman Nina Tassler told a TV critics’ meeting Monday. “CBS will be represented in all these conversations”.

Citing the additional viewers CBS gains for shows like “The Good Wife” and “Scorpion” on iTunes and SVOD, Tassler said that reflects growth that they’re getting paid for.

CBS” upcoming “Supergirl’ series will have a lot to prove right out the gate, and now only due to the show’s initial criticism.

Here are the other highlights from Tassler’s turn before the press. When approached later by a small group of reporters and asked to explain whether such concessions would be made again, Tassler let out that annoyed “Oh, my God!” In rattling off his skills, for instance, she noted such things as his love for “song and dance”. Praising him as a “once in a generation talent”, she said, “He’s the smartest guy in the room” and promised he’ll deliver interviews of substance.

The latter left the show at season’s end. In late night, “ratings are important, but your digital footprint” is now vital, she said. “The audience didn’t respond”.

In its first season, “Dome” was a summer blockbuster. You go into making the best shows you can.

Local spending on the second season of CBS’ “Under the Dome” reached $35.1 million, up from the $33.4 million spent for its freshman season.

Sometimes shows get cancelled when they air on a network other than the one that owns it, and while Person of Interest has been been a pretty good contender in a tough Tuesday nights at 10 p.m. timeslot, the show’s fate may end up being decided by forces outside of its control.

Alicia and Kalinda finally shared a scene together on The Good Wife Season 6 finale. “The ending was very satisfying for the characters and I stand by how Robert and Michelle King produce their show”. Original cast members in… And no, Tassler didn’t even try to hide her excitement about the linear ratings potential of that much live, event programming.
