CBS shuffles Monday prime time programming after Paris attacks

They did not announce when the episodes will air. Often when this happens, the affected episodes eventually air at a later date, after tensions have died down (or later show up on the DVD).

Deadline notes that Quantico, a terrorism-themed series on ABC, and Showtime’s Homeland, which is set in Germany, will both air their regularly scheduled episodes tonight.

The network said the programming changes were made out of sensitivity to the events.

Los Angeles will replace an episode dealing with a young girl getting recruited in to a terrorist organization with “The Long Goodbye”, about the search for a missing girl.

In the worst attacks in France since World War Two, suspected Islamist militants on Friday killed at least 129 people and injured 352 in coordinated attacks across Paris, targeting a packed concert hall, bars and a soccer stadium in a rampage of gunfire and bombings. Find out more about the Supergirl episode delayed below.

The preview we posted earlier showing Livewire was for an episode original scheduled to air Thanksgiving week… it has been moved up to tomorrow night with the original episode of How She Does It being pulled off the schedule for now.

Additionally, Saturday’s Democratic Presidential Debate, which also aired on CBS, was “significantly reworked” to address the Paris attacks.

Monday’s planned episode of “Supergirl”, the fifth installment in freshman 8 p.m. drama, involved the title character saving the city from a series of bombings.
