CBS had planned to premiere "Mom" tonight ... but plans change.
Because of the huge numbers The Big Bang Theory did last week airing at both 7 and 7:30 p.m. (CBS/Ch. 2), TV's biggest comedy hit will continue to air back-to-back episodes on Mondays tonight, Oct. 6 and Oct. 13.
Unlike last week, when two original episodes aired consecutively, CBS will air a new "Big Bang" at 7 p.m. and a repeat at 7:30 p.m.
In tonight's original episode, Howard is asked to toss out the first pitch at a Dodgers game.
"Mom" will premiere on Thursday, Oct. 30, at 7:30 p.m. — the same night that "Big Bang" moves back to Thursdays.
