TODAY'S COMMENTARY Monday, October 16th 2006

Save Smith

By MediaVillage Readers

SmithFan SoundsOff to Save Smith

For those of you upset that CBS cancelled Smith, consider filing a complaint.

With enough viewer complaints, CBS may reconsider its canceling of the marvelous fast-paced Smith with its excellent cast including Ray Liotta, Virginia Madsen, Simon Baker and Amy Smart and the show's superb writing.

Blame it on CBS' bad marketing, it's only giving the show three episodes of airtime, and CBS' lack of promoting online viewing of earlier episodes of Smith for those who needed to catch up.


Ray Liotta from Smith

CBS could have given a better re-cap at the beginning of episodes for new viewers just tuning in. It could have re-run the episodes during off-hours, much like Bravo does, to allow viewers to catch up.

To complain, call CBS Audience Services at any time day or night to leave a message, or, to reach a live person, call during the hours of 10 a.m. - 11:30 a.m. and 2 p.m. - 3:30 p.m. EST - telephone CBS audience services at 212-975-3247.

You may also email audsvcs@cbs.com (short for audience services).
