Marti Noxon gives an interview mostly about Point Pleasant in the New York Times. (http://www.bugmenot.com for password.)
Q. "Point Pleasant" is scheduled to run opposite "CSI" on Thursday nights at 9 Eastern time. Yikes?

But the question is whether you want to be in Siberia, or whether you want to be on one of those nights when people are actually flipping around checking stuff out. I hope it means that they'll let us stay on for a while knowing we're not going to do huge, splashy numbers right away. That's how I tell myself it will be all right.
