“Dog” gone from Thursdays, moving to Wednesdays
“Greatest American Dog” fans, take note.
CBS is moving the summer canine competition series to 7 p.m. Wednesdays beginning this week. The network decision was made Friday, which was too late to make changes to The Oklahoman’s TV Week and every TV book that hits the newstands.
The reason for the switch? CBS wanted to return the “Big Brother” live eviction show to its familiar 7 p.m. Thursday time period, which is where “Dog” was for its first three airings.
Over its first three broadcasts, “Dog” averaged 7.52 million viewers. The premiere episode on July 10 attracted 9.46 million viewers and was the week’s sixth most-watched primetime program on broadcast TV.
Episode four (7 p.m. Wednesday, not Thursday, on CBS) is titled “Top Dog Model.” For the best-in-show competition, the dogs and their owners spending time with a photographer to come up with a shot to impress the judges.
Regardless of who walks away with the $250,000 cash prize and the title of “Greatest American Dog,” Travis Brorsen from Perry and his boxer, Presley (pictured in CBS Photo above), are representing themselves — and the state — quite well.
