CBS' strike-affected midseason lineup will include three hours of the first-ever in-season "Big Brother," the return of "The New Adventures of Old Christine," "Jericho" and "Power of Ten" and the debut of comedy "The Captain."

...

Also benched are two Tuesday dramas: the low-rated freshman "Cane" and the military drama "The Unit," which had struggled at 9 p.m. against Fox's hit "House." They will be replaced by "Big Brother" and "Jericho," which both will premiere Feb. 12.

The Tuesday installment of "Brother" will be joined by a Wednesday edition at 8 p.m., which debuts Feb. 13, and a Sunday one at 8 p.m., which launches Feb. 17.

That is close to the reality show's summer scheduling pattern, when it airs Tuesday at 9 p.m., Thursday at 8 p.m. and Sunday at 8 p.m.

In-season, the Thursday 8 p.m. time period belongs to "Survivor," whose 16th installment premieres Feb. 7.

In the Wednesday 8 p.m. hour now occupied by "Kid Nation," "Brother" will succeed "Power," which will run for six weeks beginning Jan. 2

I recently realized that I never canceled my SuperPass, so it looks like I should just keep it going to get the live feeds...

I am more excited about Jericho coming back, but yay BB!

BB needs to stop sucking.

It may suck even more this time. The rumor is that the house will be half celebrities and half normal people. At the start, the celebs will live in the rich, fancy half, and the norms will live in the cheap half, and they will unwittingly vote a member to the other side each week until the 2 houses merge. Names thrown about so far include Alice Cooper and George Michael.

Sounds too dumb to be believed, so I'm hoping it's a hoax.

Maybe Dirk Benedict and Jermaine Jackson will do it again.

Maybe David Gest will do it so that I can see all the good that is within him.
