The news has taken over the TV landscape today due to Hurricane Sandy and the storm will be affecting the primetime lineup as well.

CBS has pulled its new installments of "How I Met Your Mother," "Partners," "2 Broke Girls" and "Mike & Molly." Repeats of those comedies will air instead, while "Hawaii Five-0" has been pulled completely due to a CBS News Special on Sandy, the network tweeted.

The CW will also air repeats of "90210" and "Gossip Girl" instead of original episodes, The Futon Critic reported. "It's All Fun and Games" and "Dirty Rotten Scandals," respectively will air in light of the ongoing Sandy coverage.

Instead, you can catch up on old shows HuffPost TV suggests below.

Face it, you didn't watch it when it was on -- nobody did. Find out now that it's hilarious, surreal and a great showcase for its ridiculously talented cast.
