CBS to Seniors: "It's Been Nice Knowin' You"

CNN reports:
CBS on Wednesday canceled "Judging Amy," "Joan of Arcadia" and the Wednesday edition of "60 Minutes" as the nation's most popular network tries to attract younger viewers.

... CBS is again the most-watched network and this season will narrowly miss beating Fox among the youthful 18-to-49-year-old demographic prized by advertisers. If Fox hadn't aired the Super Bowl this season, CBS said, it would have won.

Four of the five prime-time CBS programs with the oldest audience were removed from the schedule. CBS also canceled the Jason Alexander comedy "Listen Up" and the long-running military drama "JAG" stopped production. The Sunday "60 Minutes" remains as the CBS show with the oldest audience.
What kind of programming does the network have in store for America?
The network will add two new comedies and four new dramas next season, including a series in which Jennifer Love Hewitt talks to dead people.
Oh, boy. I'll bet you can't wait to set your TiVo for that show.
