Why the Kanye? Hell, why not? Rules of Engagement is back, and I’m celebrating! Okay, I know what you’re all thinking: what about Worst Week? Yes, it’s true that Rules of Engagement will be assuming Worst Week‘s time-slot for now. But, never fear: CBS is not making any statement about the fate of either show […]
