All episodes are quarantined except for the first to an online subscription? If so, my opinion of it is exactly the same as if it never existed.
It's the internet.. episode 2 was bittorrented about 15 secs after CBS posted it.
Understood, but I've moved on from torrenting files and now value convenience. Or I'll just go do something else. TV, or loss of it, is no biggie for me. For a show I cared about, I could be persuaded to do it the old fashioned way, by tuning in at an exact time each week, AND "put up" with commercials. But even that's not an option here.
CBS got a huge influx of new subscribers because of this new show, but has squandered the one thing all of the Netflixes of world will never have: actual, OTA broadcast ability. It's clear they don't want it. Instead of educating consumers about the value of an antenna, they chose to milk them.
