Rules of Engagement Coming to Broadcast Syndication In Fall 2012; Pretty Little Liars DVD Contest
Rules of Engagement is a comedy about the different phases of male/female relationships, as seen through the eyes of a newly engaged couple, Adam (Oliver Hudson) and Jennifer (Bianca Kajlich), a long-time married pair, Jeff (Patrick Warburton) and Audrey (Megyn Price), and a single guy on the prowl, Russell (David Spade) and his assistant, Timmy (Adhir Kalyan). As they find out, the often confusing stages of a relationship can seem like being on a roller coaster. People can describe the ride to you, but to really know what it's like you have to experience it for yourself.
A consistent utility player in every time slot for CBS during its broadcast network run, Rules of Engagement builds its time period in each of its five seasons. Rules of Engagement is also the #1 CBS network comedy in repeatability, retaining most of its original episode audience. The series heads to its sixth season this fall, but on a new night and time of Saturdays at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT.
Stay tuned for more clearances and a cable deal as well. As of now, Rules hasn't been sold to cable, but if Sony can sell 'Til Death to cable (WGN America), then Rules will be next. Stay with us!
