ABC / USA
Here's the deal (as I understood it from my parents - the king and queen of television - seriously.... 5 tv's (not including in car), 7 VCR's - all programmed, and working, 3 DVD's - not to mention one combo VCR/DVD....yes, dad has had them ALL recording different shows at one time while watching two others between PIP - the man needs THERAPY)...
anyway - sorry to rant -
the show was marketed to ABC who refused it - they said "it'll never work - no market for it" etc. So USA said "hey we'll take it" -- about 2 epsisodes in, ABC said "you know, we would like to add this to our line-up after all" and USA said "great - you can pay us super $$$ and we will give you the RE-RUNS of the new shows that we air on Friday" -- and ABC took it. This year, I guess USA said "it's ours" and took off with it.
It is a good show - I am SO shocked that someone with OCD has not cried that it is discrimination to say "defective detective" although what a great tag line to get people interested! You know the good ol USA - what can I sue you for?!
