Did anyone catch Carol Barbee's new show? I thought it was ok, but nothing close to Jericho.

Didn't catch it guiver1 however it hasen't done well in the ratings and I just read a post in TV by the numbers it has just been canceled?

We will have to see how that pans out.

Yeah shorty got a kick outta that didn't he? Me to when he files for unemployment.

It was OK....i will be suprised if it makes it past October.....SORRY Carol

Don't worry about Ms Barbee Lee she makin more than the rest of us and if she finds herself unemployed well we got a whole gang of folks who believe in her and Jericho, we will get her back to work.

The first episode underwent a lot of changes and I hope that those changes make the next episodes better.

For all the complaining by Robert Seidman of TV by the Numbers, Three Rivers had 9.1 million viewers. It may not make the cut at CBS, but I thought it did fairly well.

I did like their photography and the three panel screen graphics as they cut to a commercial.

I hope the show improves since I like medical shows better than cop shows.

I watched it, not at all into hospital or medical shows but couldnt miss something that had Carol Barbee involved and of course a long overdue chance to watch Alex on screen...

I liked it actually. Thought the cast was really well put together and some character background was slipped in really well with some good writing.

Good storylines, not sure how far fetched some of it was, but I enjoyed it and will keep watching.

I hope it hangs around awhile.

I know the pilot was reshot, and I am guessing we saw the second version. All but Alex were recast.

The script had minor changes done. The original storyline had the donor as a woman who was shot at her wedding. I think that may have been too bold for CBS.

I've watched most of the medical shows over the years, although my favorite is still Medical Center with Chad Everett.

Thats interesting Gwen, I'd be interested to see who was originally cast. I like Daniel Henney who plays Dr. David Lee, impressed me as a good actor. The woman who plays Dr. Foster seemed to be struggling with a little of that first show overacting to me, but I thought the same of Mariska Hartigay in L&O at first so what the heck do I know. I don't think you can wrong with Alfre Woodard. she's terrific.

I always look at new shows and picture different actors in the roles, which is why I love when actors are somewhat unknown in shows, helps to let you believe their character easier and faster I think.

Either way though, Alex O is not hard on the eyes at all, and while there is still blood involved like his last show....and least now its not being sucked from people..much more pleasant.

I liked the donor story they used and like that you are able to see it from that family's perspective as well. The wedding shooting may have been too hard an opener.

Medical Center...wow! Blast from the Past...I was a Quincy fan! LOL

Anyway, hope that made sense...long week of painting and the fumes may have jumbled my thoughts.

I'm looking forward to the next episode

I completely forgot about it. Maybe I can catch it On Demand.

This was the earliest article that was cross referenced under "Three Rivers" in the JKI Telegraoh:

Well no wonder the first episode was different that the script - they didn't air the pilot first. The 2nd episode was the first one we saw.

Tonight, on Three Rivers: Shiloh Fernandez aka Sean Henthorn (Jeircho).

Nice clips with the articles.

I really like this show.....I Hope CBS gives it a chance........but regarding the track record of CBS and quiality proramming...I am not holding my breath.

Lennie James is supposed to be on tonight too.

Looking forward to this weeks episode. I thought last weeks episode was better than the first one we saw. Lennie will be a definite plus.

I do wish CBS would stop changing the order of the episodes... I read the article that said Lennie's episode "Alone Together" ( http://threeriversblogspot.blogspot.com/20...eases-9-29.html ) was supposed to be on tonight but the tv listings show Shiloh aka Sean's episode "Good Intentions" on tonight.. guess will just have to wait and see.

I like the show but wish instead of starting with deaths they would let you get to know who needs the transplants and then show through flashbacks how the organs became available. I didn't remember where I had seen Shiloh before. He was much more likeable in Three Rivers.

Already watching too many shows.

Yep, wrong about that. Crud.

I DVR'ed the episode from 10/18...will watch it when I get a chance !!

Watching Lennie on Three Rivers!

Gwen

I must be blind I watched the episode and never saw him. What role did he play?
Debby

The cardiologist who wanted to take the detective up without doing an x-ray. He was speaking with his normal accent and wasn't on very much.

Hubby was half watching and it took him a while before he turned to me with this look of "Hey!" on his face. I laughed and told him that yes, it was Hawkins. I also told him that Carol said she was trying to get as many of the Jericho cast to guest as she could. I know Michael Gaston (Gray) will be on sometime.

This show is VERY underrated...I am liking it more every week....I ucually DVR and save it for a night when nothing much is on.....the same for the forgotten on tuesday night at 10 PM.

Thanks Jeanine I saw that but was so tied up in the story line it didn't click it was him. I will have to watch it again. I kept looking for him later in the show and didn't find him.
Debby

I finally watched Three Rivers last night after DVRing it on Sunday.....it was GREAT to see Lennie.....wonder if other JERICHO alumni will show up on this show before it gets canceled - ratings are in the toilet.

I know Michael Gaston (Gray) is scheduled to make a guest appearance as an ambulance driver. We'll have to see if it airs before it's axed.

cbs has done it again.... the show has been halted effectively immediately...

Back to the Jericho dvds for Sundays...

Hey Kitty, do you have a link to the article where you read this? I've been looking and all I can find so far is reports about Three Rivers Cornmeal's production being halted, not the show.

They're calling it a hiatus and we all know what that means. I found it on zap2it: http://blog.zap2it.com/frominsidethebox/20...cbs-lineup.html

thanks heard it on Shaun's show but couldn't find the link...

here is another take on it;

Thanks!

Even though I saw this coming from a mile away, it still hurts. It was a fantastic show. Anyone see the episode with Mandy Patinkin? That was emotional, to say the least. Well, back to worrying about the forgotten and Castle.

Castle has been renewed already and they ordered more episodes of The Forgotten.

Carol having a rough run with CBS - Happens

I loved the Providence show now that goes back!

Three Rivers is a class show....i hope it gets a reprieve !!

I know Castle was picked up, I just meant overall worrying about it for next season. That's one of the few times the bubble show I love is performing well. The Forgotten did get more episodes, but it hasn't been performing well either. I think Castle should be safe for next year, Forgotten...well, we'll see. I just enjoy seeing Bob in a bigger role.
