Interesting Article In The NY Times

The New York Times has an interesting article about the battle for "Medium" waged between CBS and NBC.  Who knew NBC wanted "Ghost Whisperer"?  I don't see that show fitting quite as well as it does at CBS.  "Medium", though will probably prosper at it's new home on CBS. 
 
I'm usually concerned with moving a good show to any Friday night slot but if you're going to do it, CBS is the network for it.  Some how, and I'm sure Fox, NBC and ABC executives all wish they knew, CBS has managed to pull in mid-week style ratings on a weekend night - not heard of very often.
 
The quotes from NBC executives are near laughable, much like ones reported in an LA Times blog a few days ago.
