I liked Ghost Whisperer so I'll give this a try...

"A brilliant surgeon's life changes forever when he is visited by the ghost of his deceased ex-wife."

CBS cans 2 Ghost related shows with fans then comes out with a new one? I have a timer also...

Medium certainly ran it's course and Ghost Whisperer got a little too strange after she (as my wife calls her the boob lady who changes her outfits at least 9-times every show) got pregnant and gave birth to a 6-year old. Regardless, both shows still had respectable ratings (led Friday night) when they were cancelled which appears to be one of CBS' patented moves.

Anyway, I have no idea what this show is about based on the promos..

I have a timer, but I see it being canceled by midseason.

S~

Not bad...I'll keep the timer around and see how the story develops. It's like House meets Ghost Whisperer...

"Michael works double-duty trying to save a pregnant friend who has a brain tumor and a boy with sickle-cell disease."

...still liking this series. Unfortunately, there are no new episodes the next couple weeks.

...never mind, New Show, just not updated at IMDB.

"As Michael interviews potential new clinic directors, one man passes out and later refuses medical attention; Michael discovers lesions on a patient's brain that require immediate surgery."

Finally watched. BYE, BYE!!

I could live without this one.

S~

I would rather watch the Ghost Whisperer than this turkey. It is like Ghost Whisperer meets Grey's Anatomy.

"Michael turns to Anton for help with a patient who hears voices; Kate has her first day at the clinic."

Deleted the timer . I just don't have time for this kind of crappy tv show.

Didn't like it. Deleted the timer for it.

Normally I would say this show isn't going anywhere because are easily winning their time-slot. However, this is CBS and they've been known to cancel shows drawing 8-10 million viewers: Medium, Ghost Whisperers, Numb3rs, The Defenders, Shark, etc. I think CBS hoping this show would pick-up viewers who like House, Ghost Whisper and Touched by an Angel. The problem is that is the show is strugging to find an identity, at times. But based on the ratings it's more than good enough for Friday night which, once again, CBS has a stranglehold over the other networks.

8 p.m.
CBS:"A Gifted Man" (7.5 million viewers, 5.0/9 households)
FOX: "Kitchen Nightmares" (3.7 million, 2.3/4)
ABC: "Modern Family" rerun (3.4 million, 2.4/4)/"Suburgatory" rerun (2.9 million, 1.9/3)
NBC: "Up All Night" rerun (3.1 million, 2.1/4)/"Whitney" rerun (2.9 million, 1.9/3)
The CW: "Nikita" (1.6 million, 1.1/2)

Friday nights are one of the worst nights for tv, since most of the demographic that the networks want to watch the show( age 18 - 49) is out on the town. So they might influence the networks decision to keep the show on the air for now. Come mid season , we might see a replacement in it's place.

Well, there appears to be a discrepancy between Tivo and IMDb as to which episode will be broadcast this week (In case of Memory Loss or In Case of Abnormal Rhythm). We shall see...

"Kate and Michael team up and try to save a patient with a deadly virus; Michael notices a patient's mother exhibiting symptoms of a serious condition." ~or~ "While at the clinic, Michael runs into a former football star that he performed successful surgery on years ago, and is now a shell of his former self, living on the streets. At Holt Neuro, Michael examines a patient who suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder.

"Michael feels conflicted when he learns that a patient (John Benjamin Hickey) with a malignant brain tumor was responsible for a terrible crime; a firefighter (Mamie Gummer) is brought in for an evaluation after appearing to be disoriented."

I guess this is part of their "In Case of..." series (e.g., In Case of All Hell Breaking Loose, In Case of Discomfort, In Case of Separation Anxiety, In Case of Loss of Control, In Case of Memory Loss, In Case of Abnormal Rhythm, etc.)

Not a bad show last night. Of course, it's hard to keep watching when they're turning the lights off on this show after they broadcast the final three episodes.

I knew they were going to cancel this bomb. I would of rather watched another year of the Boob whisperer. At least the scenery was pretty.

Unfortunately, Ghost Whisperer was getting too expensive and CBS was getting syndication bucks. Plus, it really did kind of stupid after she returned with the half-grown kid. I''m also not happy they killed The Defenders for this show when it was pulling-in better numers. Gotta love CBS...if they can't get 5-years out of a show it's going quickly.

Anyway, I'm not a big fan of A Gifted Man (it's Okawy) but leave it CBS to flush-down another show that is easily winning its timeslot:

CBS: "A Gifted Man" (8.4 million, 5.5/10)
ABC: "Shark Tank" (5.2 million, 3.2/6)
NBC: "Who Do You Think You Are?" (6.0 million, 2.4/4)
Fox: "Kitchen Nightmares" (3.8 million, 2.4/4)
The CW: "Nikita" (1.4 million, 1.0/2)

"A woman takes the clinic staff hostage after Michael testifies for a patient who he believed couldn't control his urges because of a brain tumor."

Hey, if CBS were to cancel this show and later bring it back...would the new show be renamed to 'A Re-Gifted Man'? :rolleyes:

"The doctors team up to search for a common link when a spoiled pop star (Christina Milian) and a young girl both seek treatment for unusual symptoms."

Good show last night...just finished watching. Moreover, this show is also doing well in the ratings...of course, this didn't prevent CBS from terminating The Defenders and they were drawing 9-10 million viewers in its Friday night timeslot last year.

9 p.m.

CBS: "A Gifted Man" (9.5 million, 6.1/10)
ABC: "20/20" (7.1 million, 4.7/8)
NBC: NAACP Image Awards (3.1 million, 2.1/3)
FOX: "Fringe" (3 million, 1.9/3)
The CW: "Supernatural" (1.7 million, 1.1/2)

I think CBS cancels shows that get over 9 million viewers because they have so many good shows to choose from. The bar is set much higher for Cbs shows then say CW shows. So they give a show some time and if something new comes along that may do better, they cancel an older one and replace it with a new concept. I am very surprised that Gifted Man is still doing as good as it is. I couldn't get through more than a couple of episodes and I deleted the timer.

"Michael is determined to help his high school sweetheart, who has an irreversible condition; Zeke learns that his best friend's cancer has returned."

Like the show, hate the ongoing "In Case of..." titles - kinda like all the Hope/Crosby Road to.... movies.

Ratings are still good in its timeslot...but CBS appears to be hell-bent on cancelling this show:

9 p.m.

CBS: "A Gifted Man" (9 million, 5.9/10)
NBC: "Grimm" (4.8 million, 2.8/5)
ABC: "What Would You Do?" (4.6 million, 3.0/5)
FOX: "Fringe" (3 million, 1.9/3)
The CW: "Supernatural" re-run (1 million, 0.7/1)

Why do they want to cancel the show? I think it is a good one and it has the best rating for it's time slot. Another one is going to bite the dust?

I have been wondering if the doc himself has head issues seeing his deceased wife.

Another good show last night. Why is CBS going to calcel it? Because they are CBS and not NBC. The ratings for AGM are almost identical to The Defenders last year, and it got whacked. :(

9 p.m.

CBS: "A Gifted Man" (9.7 million, 6.2/10)
ABC: "What Would You Do?" (5.9 million, 3.7/6)
NBC: "Grimm" (5.6 million, 3.5/6)
FOX: "Kitchen Nightmares" re-run (2.9 million, 1.9/3)
The CW: "Supernatural" re-run (1 million, 0.7/1)

Local storm coverage prevented me from watching this on my DVR. Is it available on cbs.com to watch?

Should be, but they delay the webcast 8-days...

Darn. I figured they would delay it. Probably can expect the same out of the other shows I missed out on as well.

CBS doesn't delay. It's available now.

A little "different" episode, but still enjoyable.
