    Is this blackout already over...or does it only effect people in certain states? We still got CBS and football games on my TimeWarner cable service.

    It only affects those CBS stations that are owned by CBS. It doesn't affect independent CBS affiliates.

    You can't watch any cbs shows on hulu either. Hulu directs you to cbs which tells you can't any of their programs.

    CBS who?

    David Who Letterman?

    Under the Who Dome?

    Could care less about CBS and their content. I used to watch Letterman, switched to Kimmel... MUCH better! Thank you CBS for forcing me to look at OPTIONS.

    Could care less about TWC too! Direct TV install scheduled next Tuesday!
