Making sure to ward off criticism by calling it an experiment, CBS will launch an advertising-sponsored week-long “micro-series” titled The Courier on Tuesday, January, 24 in the first act break of CSI: MIAMI after 9:00 PM EST/PST. The serialized short film, sponsored by Pontiac and broadcast about the same time each night in seven short episodes, will premiere as a 60-second installment with subsequent editions running for 40-seconds.

Oddly assuming everyone watches CBS everyday of the week at the same time, The Courier will then run in the first act break after 9 PM EST/PST on seven nights over nine days (Saturday, January, 28 and Tuesday, January, 31will be skipped), with its finale airing on Wednesday, February, 1 during Criminal Minds.

The micro-series follows a mystery man named “iiro” who races against time to uncover clues and perform a sequence of “death-defying” tasks in a desperate attempt to rescue his kidnapped wife. A website will contain more information about the series along with an additional, separate story and, of course, a sweepstakes to win a Pontiac Torrent.

The quietest people in most families are almost never quiet because they have nothing to say. They went quiet because they said something important once, it was dismissed or corrected, and they decided the cost of speaking wasn’t worth the possibility of being unheard again

Psychology says the loneliest part of being an aging parent isn’t being alone – it’s realizing your children love you but don’t actually enjoy spending time with you, and understanding that gap is something you created decades ago

Psychology says the freedom that childless couples experience in midlife carries a hidden cost. Without the natural structure that children impose on time, weekends, holidays, and decades, they must generate their own sense of purpose continuously, and that ongoing act of self-creation is both the privilege and the exhaustion nobody warns them about.
