TV execs find DVR is a friend after all
Remember those ads they ran last year in the middle of the commercial breaks, about halfway through the show? They got mentioned in this article, waay down close to the end. It's about ratings and DVR and how they're surprised that so many people still watch the commercials.

This is the mention:
The Fox series "Bones" has experimented with inserting into the middle of a group of commercials a segment with the show's main characters discussing the story so far. That can induce a sudden stop in the playback.

Why'd they get rid of those anyway? I thought they were kinda cool and I was definitely one of those people who hit "rewind" on the DVR.

No idea, Meegs. They were just here one day and then gone a few weeks later. I liked them too.Meegs82 wrote:Why'd they get rid of those anyway? I thought they were kinda cool and I was definitely one of those people who hit "rewind" on the DVR.

yeah that was kinda weird, those little updates from the actors, But I liked them, they only did them for like 2 or 3 episodes, right?

I think it was a few more than that, but I don't think it was for the entire season, that's for sure.
