AceShowbiz - CBS decides to yank off terrorism-themed episodes of their superhero series "Supergirl" and procedural drama "NCIS: Los Angeles" in the wake of Paris deadly attacks. The decision was made "out of sensitivity and respect to the events that occurred."
According to a scoop from TV Line, a "Supergirl" episode titled "How Does She Do It?" which sees Kara dealing with bombings throughout National City was originally scheduled to air Monday, November 16. It's now replaced by a Thanksgiving-themed one called "Livewire" which was supposed to air the following week.
Meanwhile, an "NCIS: LA" episode called "Defectors" that revolves around ISIS recruiting young women was initially set by The Eye for Monday but they decide to go with "The Long Goodbye" which was originally planned for December 7.
