Are there not going to be anymore full episodes online for the Mentalist This is my number one favorite show this season I don't get why CBS is still showing full episodes for some shows but not others? Its the only way I get to see my favorite shows seeing as how I work nights. This is a huge disappointment. CBS please start showing his online again

I'm disappointed that CBS doesn't have the full episodes for several shows anymore, I was interested but I'm not able to watch them at their normal times and if the episodes are no longer avaliable online I might just stop watching. Please CBS, put the episodes back up!!! You're losing viewers like me if that feature is no longer avaliable.

No more Mentalist or Eleventh Hour shows online! So very sad. Please CBS, bring them back. And while your at it, please put shows like Rules of Engagement and Criminal Minds online too!

Let CBS know that we do not find their lack of consistancy and communication acceptable... they have a place on their page where you can send them a message, and it claims that they read all their messages!! Let them know that they can't post episodes and then stop and remove them and do things at random without any reason. Let's fill their email boxes until they get the message how WE would like online viewing to work. All the way at the bottom of your webpage on the left hand side in the small grey print on the line starting with "About CBS" is the link "User Feedback." Click on that and it takes you to the form.

I echo the sadness here. Your navigation is difficult at best, your inconsistency with full episode viewing is confusing, and overall your quality of video is not up to your competition's (e.g., abc, nbc, fox) standards.It's everything I've come to expect from cbs.

Clips? I don't need no stinkin' clips!CBS - you have the best online viewer and I was enjoying full episodes. If you want to build a community, you have to feed the community or else it will die. What were you thinking?Oh, by the way, your registration process really sucks. The forgot username doesn't work because you don't send the username, you just reset the password. This is useless if you can't remember the username. Doh!CBS - get a clue. I see you trying to act all Web 2.0 and all but you just don't get what community means.You could really build something of a show if you actually posted the episodes.What's the big deal?You really p*** me off.

I absolutely agree. I cannot watch my favorite shows during the week, so I watch them on the weekend while I do laundry. If they are not online - I cannot watch. Please put them back.

Jeezzzz. First you cancel "Swingtown" which is an amazing show (bring it back, will ya!). Then you don't put up any full episodes of "The Big Bang Theory", which I didn't know about till it was several episodes into the series. Then you stop posting episodes of "The Mentalist", "The Eleventh Hour", "The New Adventures of Old Christine"... What the heck are you doing? Trying to lose viewers??I can only watch online and am having a great grand old time watching ABC, NBC, & FOX who put up every show with some in HD. I guess I'll stop watching CBS shows online and your advertisers will lose out. Maybe I'll just pop some emails to those advertisers letting them know how dissatisfied we all are with your terrible habit of just dropping full episodes of shows off the web. And will you answer our question about WHY you aren't posting full episodes. Or better yet, justput them back!Thanks for listening and I'll be back when your shows are back. Toodle-looTricia

It may be possible this issue is partly due to Warner Bros as they are the actual producers of Eleventh Hour and The Mentalist, which seem to be two shows that people have mentioned missing.

I'm not asking nice like the rest of the fans, I'm telling you to bring back the full episodes of Mentalist & Eleventh Hour online. Nobody cares about Survivor anymore and the "highlights" are basically teasing the true fans. All it takes is enough pissed off fans with blogs of "CBS Mentalist sucks" for google to pick it up and your numbers to start going down.

Sent to CBS User Feedback:CBS is an amazing network. That is it never ceases to amaze me. That's not necessarily a good thing. It panders to the flocks of sheeple with substanceless mind-rot like Survivor and cancels great shows like Jericho. On the other hand, it airs what I feel are four of the six best shows out there, NCIS, The Unit, The Mentalist, and The Eleventh Hour, the other two being USA's Burn Notice and Fox's 24. Working weird hours and having sketchy cable service where I live in Alaska, watching online is a great feature for me. Now, all of a sudden though, I have to miss out on two of my favorite shows as in their infinite wisdom, CBS has stopped airing full episodes online of The Mentalist and The Eleventh Hour. Is it just a matter of time before I start missing out on The Unit and NCIS? Please bring full online episode viewing back for these incredible new shows.

I read an article (sorry, can't remember where) that said Warner Bros. is to blame. They requested that CBS take down all their productions. I think the reason had something to do with syndication value or something. It really didn't make a whole lot of sense.
