I'd like to take this opportunity to say that whether or not you loved/hated Ashley Seaver, Rachel Nichols as an actress is a human being who did not deserve to be sidelined liked this. She obviously loved her job and her co-workers, and is justifiably upset about this. 

CBS pulled the same stunt with Rachel that they did with AJ and Paget last year. Please keep that in mind. CBS might have fixed one of the symptoms by bringing AJ and Paget back, but they have in no way solved the problem of treating their actresses as disposable.

If you can, please send Rachel some love on twitter.

decent way to pass some spare time, and that's about it.
That could be true, but I didn't mean that in terms of the ratings would drop significantly just because she was there (which I probably should have said before). But I do think CM fans are a pretty vocal bunch. Many fans who still watch now have been watching from the beginning and so, I would expect, quite invested in it. I mean, Gibson, Messner, and even Nichols herself noticed that Seaver's reception was not positive. The ratings might not have dropped enough to completely damage the show, but I feel like a great portion of fans made their voice known.

But there are always those people who don't interact with the show outside of watching it, as you said. I just think CM has a higher number of fans who do than most shows.

All I have to say to that is those are the casual viewers you come across. I've already said the people I talk to IRL did not feel that way.
