CBS Fall Schedule Revealed: Big Bang, NCIS: LA, Race, CSI On The Move; Two And A Half Men Entering Final Season, The Mentalist MIA
CBS on Wednesday revealed its primetime line-up for the 2014-15 TV season and, as expected, The Big Bang Theory will temporarily relocate to Mondays at 8/7c during the network's run of Thursday Night Football (TBBT will return to its Thursday perch after five or six weeks, at which point 2 Broke Girls will step in).
Also of note: NCIS: LA is shifting to Mondays at 10/9c (following new drama Scorpion), The Amazing Race is headed to Fridays at 8/7c, and CSI is Sunday-at-10/9c-bound (spin-off CSI: Cyber will replace it at midseason). Also, CBS confirmed that Two and a Half Men is entering its final season.

Oh, and despite reports to the contrary, How I Met Your Dad is dead. Turns out CBS was not satisfied with the pilot that Craig Thomas and Carter Bays turned in. "We reached out [to Bays and Thomas], tried to get a redo," said CBS president Nina Tassler. "It wasn't what they wanted to do." (20th Century Fox is said to already be shopping the project to other networks; click here for more on those efforts.)
