In the aftermath of the Paris attacks, CBS has pulled episodes of "Supergirl" and "NCIS: Los Angeles" that been scheduled for Monday night.
Terrorism figured in the plots of both episodes, though the network did not address that or the Paris attacks in its statement.
Both episodes will be replaced. It is has not yet been determined when the postponed episodes will be broadcast.

How do YOU feel?
P-word on them...
The “terrorists” were undoubtedly white conservative Christians.
I guess they don’t want to “offend” our future killers. Even Muzzie Islamomurderers need their own “safe space.”
CBS?
The “terrorists†were undoubtedly white conservative Christians.

FReepers.
Perhaps they’ve pulled them because they were either far too politically correct or even overtly sympathetic to the radical-Islam cause? Pulling the episodes would save them a huge backlash if that’s the case...
I guess we aren’t grown up enough to decide for ourselves IF we will watch a certain type of TV show.
I can understand Supergirl being pulled, if only for the terrible acting.
What did NCIS do to offend?
COWARDS!.............
Superglue outfit to be replaced with a burka with a big “S” on it.
I think I read somewhere recently that these Supergirl and similar programs would have vast right wing conservative Christians as the villains.
Read the rest of the article. A reference to possible terrorism.
Superglue = Supergirl. Damn auto spell.
You got here before me. I was thinking the same thing.
I can just see the discussion in the head offices:
Producer: “Look, now that everyone clearly knows the Paris attacks were done by Islamic terrorists, no one’s gonna believe our PC crap about Christian terrorism! We’re screwed!”
Network Executive: “Relax, most viewers have the memory of a fly. We’ll just wait a few months till everyone has forgotten, then we’ll re-air it. People will believe it then.”
I LIKE Supergirl. She’s all about truth, justice and the American way. Acting isn’t that bad. Certainly better than The Flash.
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone...
If the terrorists were white they would still run the episode. My guess is that they somehow excused the terrorists or wanted them to be understood.
