Rules of Engagement

CBS has set a Monday, March 2, premiere date for the third season of Rules of Engagement.

Starring Patrick Warburton, Megyn Price, Oliver Hudson, Bianca Kajlich and David Spade, the sitcom last season averaged nearly 11 million viewers. Once again, it will air Mondays at 9:30, leading out of Two and a Half Men.

(Have I ever done for you my shtick on how the titles of most of CBS' Monday sitcoms have "expiration dates"? I mean, Ted will meet the mother one day, there soon will be three men, and Rules' Adam and Jennifer will eventually tie the knot. But I digress.)

As previously and exclusively reported by TVGuidecom, this season's guest stars will include Brian Dennehy, playing Warburton's dad.
