The new DRAMAS:
NCIS: LOS ANGELES is a drama about the high stakes world of undercover surveillance at the Office of Special Projects (OSP), a division of NCIS that is charged with apprehending dangerous and elusive criminals that pose a threat to the nation's security. By assuming false identities and utilizing the most advanced technology, this team of highly trained agents goes deep undercover, putting their lives on the line in the field to bring down their targets. Special Agent "G" Callen (Chris O'Donnell) is a chameleon who transforms himself into whomever he needs to be to infiltrate the criminal underworld. His partner is Special Agent Sam Hanna (LL COOL J), a former U.S. Navy SEAL who has seen action in both Afghanistan and Iraq, and a surveillance expert who uses state of the art monitoring equipment to look out for those in the field and feed them crucial information. Both Callen and Hanna report to Special Agent Lara Macy (Louise Lombard), the OSP team leader responsible for directing the operations and making life-or-death decisions. Assisting the team is Special Agent Kensi Lo (Daniela Ruah), the exceptionally bright daughter of a slain Marine who lives for the adrenalin rush that comes with undercover work, and Operational Psychologist Nate Getz (Peter Cambor), adept at getting into anybody's head, profiling the target and monitoring agents' states of mind before, during and after missions. Armed with the latest in high tech gear and sent regularly into life-threatening situations, this tight-knit team relies on each other to do what is necessary to protect national interests. Shane Brennan ("NCIS") is the executive producer for CBS Television Studios.
THE GOOD WIFE is a drama starring Emmy Award winner Julianna Margulies as a wife and mother who must assume full responsibility for her family and re-enter the workforce after her husband's very public sex and political corruption scandal lands him in jail. Pushing aside the betrayal and crushing public humiliation caused by her husband Peter (Chris Noth), Alicia Florrick (Margulies) starts over by pursuing her original career as a defense attorney. As a junior associate at a prestigious Chicago law firm, she joins her longtime friend, former law school classmate and firm partner Will Gardner (Josh Charles), who is interested to see how Alicia will perform after 13 years out of the courtroom. Alicia is grateful the firm's top litigator, Diane Lockhart (Christine Baranski), offers to mentor her but discovers the offer has conditions and realizes she's going to need to succeed on her own merit. Alicia's main competition among the firm's 20-something new recruits is Cary (Matt Czuchry), a recent Harvard grad who is affable on the surface, but will use any means to ensure that he, not Alicia, secures the one full-time associate position that's available. Fortunately, Alicia finds an ally in Kalinda (Archie Panjabi), the firm's tough in-house investigator. Gaining confidence every day, Alicia transforms herself from embarrassed politician's scorned wife to resilient career woman, especially for the sake of providing a stable home for her children, 14-year-old Zach (Graham Phillips) and 13-year-old Grace (Makenzie Vega). For the first time in years, Alicia trades in her identity as the "good wife" and takes charge of her own destiny. Tony Scott, Ridley Scott, Robert King, Michelle King, Dee Johnson and David Zucker are the executive producers for CBS Television Studios.
THREE RIVERS is a medical drama that goes inside the emotionally complex lives of organ donors, the recipients and the surgeons at the preeminent transplant hospital in the country where every moment counts. However, dealing with donor families in their darkest hour and managing the fears and concerns of apprehensive recipients takes much more than just a sharp scalpel. Leading the elite team is Dr. Andy Yablonski (Alex O'Loughlin), the highly-skilled workaholic lead organ transplant surgeon, whose good-natured personality and sarcastic wit makes him popular with his patients and colleagues. His colleagues include Dr. Miranda Foster (Katherine Moennig), a surgical fellow with a rebellious streak and fiery temper who strives to live up to her deceased father's excellent surgical reputation; Dr. David Lee (Daniel Henney), a womanizing surgical resident who's broken as many hearts as he's replaced; Ryan Abbott (Christopher J. Hanke), the inexperienced new transplant coordinator who arranges the intricately choreographed process of quickly and carefully transporting organs from donor to patient; Dr. Sophia Jordan (Julia Ormond), the head of surgery and a dedicated medical professional; and Pam Acosta (Justina Machado), Andy's no-nonsense operating assistant and best friend. In this high stakes arena, in which every case is a race against the clock, these tenacious surgeons and medical professionals are the last hope for their patients. Carol Barbee, Curtis Hanson and Carol Fenelon are the executive producers for CBS Television Studios.
The new COMEDY:
ACCIDENTALLY ON PURPOSE is a comedy starring Golden Globe Award winner Jenna Elfman as Billie, a single woman who finds herself "accidentally" pregnant after a one-night stand with a much younger guy, and decides to keep the baby... and the guy. A newspaper film critic, Billie is barely surviving a humiliating breakup with her charming boss, James (Grant Show), who's still trying to resume their relationship. Suddenly expecting a child with her "boy toy," Zack (Jon Foster), Billie and Zack make an arrangement: to live together platonically. Billie's party girl best friend Olivia (Ashley Jensen), and Abby (Lennon Parham), her conventional, younger married sister, eagerly look forward to the new addition and offer their own brands of advice and encouragement. But when Zack and his freeloading friends, including Davis (Nicolas Wright), start to turn her place into a frat house, Billie isn't sure if she's living with a boyfriend, a roommate, or if she just has another child to raise. Lloyd Braun, Gail Berman, Gene Stein and Claudia Lonow are the executive producers for CBS Television Studios. Pamela Fryman directed the pilot.
The new MIDSEASON DRAMAS:
THE BRIDGE is a drama about a tough and dedicated police officer who is voted to become the police union's dynamic leader. To serve the public as well as his 8,000 fellow officers, charismatic Frank Leo (Aaron Douglas) battles criminals on the street, corruption in the ranks and his own bosses. On the force is his able partner and confidante Tommy Dunn (Paul Popowich), who rides with Frank across the bridge that spans the divide between the rich and the poor in the area they patrol; Staff Sergeant Bernie Kantor (Frank Cassini), a voice of reason and moral sounding board; Jill (Inga Cadranel), a detective with a lot of attitude who is moving up the ranks; Billy (Theresa Joy), a young female cop who is determined to prove herself to the guys; and Ed Wycoff (Michael Murphy), the shrewd Chief of Police. Abby St. James (Ona Grauer) is a sharp prosecutor who begins working with the police union, and shares a mutual attraction with Frank. In his new position, Frank Leo takes on the politically-motivated department brass... and makes many powerful enemies in the process. Craig Bromell, Adam J. Shully, Laszlo Barna, Alan Di Fiore and Robert Wertheimer are executive producers for E1 Entertainment, 990 Multi Media Entertainment Company and Jonsworth Productions in association with CTV and CBS Television Studios.
MIAMI TRAUMA is about a team of expert surgeons who work at one of the premiere trauma facilities in the country, where only patients with life threatening injuries are treated. Dr. Matthew Proctor (Jeremy Northam) is new to the trauma team, after a tour of duty in a MASH unit during the Gulf war. Dr. Eva Zambrano (Lana Parrilla) is a workaholic surgeon who is more comfortable in her scrubs than she is out in the real world. Dr. Christopher Deleo, "Dr. C.," is a playboy who thrives on the high-stakes of trauma medicine and is, by his own description, a genius redneck. Dr. Serena Warren (Elisabeth Harnois) is fresh out of medical school, and head nurse Tuck Brody (Omar Gooding) keeps the doctors on track and the patients' families updated in this chaotic corner of the medical profession. Together, this team of doctors excels in the "golden hour," the 60 minutes after being critically injured, when a patient's life hangs in the balance. Jerry Bruckheimer, Jeffrey Lieber and Jonathan Littman are executive producers for Jerry Bruckheimer Television and Bonanza Productions Inc. in association with Warner Bros. Television Distribution.
The new MIDSEASON ALTERNATIVE series:
ARRANGED MARRIAGE is a series that brings the tradition of arranged marriages, which is still practiced successfully by many cultures throughout the world, to the U.S., where it is virtually an inconceivable option for most single Americans. Three adults who are anxious to get married, but who have been unsuccessful in their own search for a mate, choose a life-altering path. They rely on their closest family and friends, those who love and know them best, to choose someone for them to marry based on shared goals, values, experiences and the commitment to make it work. The series intimately documents these three arranged marriages, starting with the first meetings of the families and the wedding day; and then follows the couple through the day-to-day joys, challenges, and emotional tumult that results from their arranged union. Emmy Award nominees Jane Lipsitz and Dan Cutforth are executive producers for Magical Elves Inc.
UNDERCOVER BOSS is a new reality series that follows high level corporate executives as they slip anonymously into the lowest level jobs within their companies. Once undercover, they'll get their hands dirty with the rank and file, find out what their employees REALLY think of them and discover how smoothly their companies are REALLY run. In the process, these senior executives learn about themselves, the perception of their company and the spirit of their work force. Stephen Lambert is the executive producer for Studio Lambert, Ltd.

to ask if anyone under 65 watches CBS? I honestly can't thnk of the last time I watched anything on that network
-
THERE IS NO REASON TO WATCH YOU PATHETIC CHANNEL ANYMORE!
-
I was wondering how they were going to do a series as the UK version was only 4? episodes, but they actually earned my interest and I didn't miss a single ep. Too bad...
-
OWN IT
-
and, I don't care who knows it.Oh, sure, obviouslt Abby's like the hottest thing on television, but that's just part of it. Another big part is that for the most part their forensic tech is rooted in fairly solid science.There was a scene where Abby was asked if she could blow up a portion of an online video, and her answer was something to the effect of "Yeah, if you want bigger pixels."
-
The last few eps of NCIS have been some of the best of the series, with an outstanding season finale/cliffhanger last night. Nice to see the continued respect from CBS. Not so great about the Unit, one of our must-sees. Do they even count DVR/web viewers?
-
Both my wife and I are under 65, have been watching CBS shows for years.
-
among all the networks as much as the stubbornness of the Big 4 to cut costs. When the showrunners of these series wouldn't bend and submit to these requests, they were cancelled. Those that did, stayed (Chuck, for example).
-
and any NCIS fan shouldn't worry about being ridiculed; their show held their own against the cancer that is Idiot Karaoke.
-
The Unit was a solid hour of ass kicking fun every Sunday. I always looked forward to it. Something a little different each week, domestic and international intrigue, and let's face it, Snake Doctor kicked some ASS! You will be missed Dennis Haysbert. And for reasons I can't explain, 11th Hour was really growing on me. Jacob hood was kind of a nerdy anti-hero, and the chick he was partnered with had some nice bumpers. Me likey. Anyway, all the above still beat Leno at 10.
-
Don't watch any CBS shows. Boring, nothing but prime time "Scoobie Doo Mysteries". Yuck
-
Happy for Medium, always liked that show. The fact that it's paired with the suckage that is Ghost Whisperer (unless it drastically improved from the time I stopped watching a couple of seasons ago)is the only downer.
Too bad for Unit, despite the fact that Dennis Haysbert as a front line secret ops guy was a stretch to say the least the show was always interesting with the combo of action and family. -
His sitcom didn't get picked up. (I'm pretty sure CBS was looking at it.) In know he's just been "filling in" this week on Lovelines, but maybe he's in a landing pattern for returning to his old gig.
-
NCIS is without a doubt the show with the greatest character chemistry on TV right now! I seriously only tune in every single week, to see all these characters interact with each other. If the Spin Off fails with its characters, I won't watch it. They got 1 1/2 Seasons to convince me.
-
Is a very solid show. For those of you that say CBS has "nothing" to offer, or nothing for anyone under 65, you are certainly entitled to your opinion. I'd say the ratings speak for themselves. O'Donnell and Cool J did a good job in their two part introductory to the NCIS world, and I look forward to seeing it.
Also, Big Bang is fun, as is Two and a Half Men. -
Well, that makes things rather easy now doesn't it?
-
Sure it was a blatant rip-off of "Meet the Parents" (albeit with a fiance that always understood that her fella' was the unintentional source of calamity). Still, GREAT show. If I'm not mistaken, even CBS was touting it as the #1 new sitcom. I guess they were lying, but I enjoyed the crap out of it and can't wait to gift it out to friends who never got a chance to see it.
I guess this is Nick Kroll kurse, which first wiped out "Cavemen". He, along with the rest of the regulars, were truly entertaining, so I hope to see them all soon. -
It is, this show is one of the most phoned-in pieces of shit I've ever seen. I gave it a second chance last night and couldn't have been more disappointed in this poorly-written tripe. NCIS:LA looks really poor based on the taste we got from its proto-pilot episode were pure junk.Why does Hollywood keep trying to make a star out of Jenna Elfman? She's not half as funny as she thinks she is, she's an annoying actress in large chunks and exceptionally 1-note. 8:30 to 9 monday will be the time I use to watch paint dry, I guess.The rest of this schedule looks a little weak, but stronger than what ABC and NBC have presented. I fully expect CBS to have no standouts from their new Fall shows, but still win the year.
-
Sure, but that was 6 months ago. When did the show end its run? I never did get a chance to see it but always saw ads for it; haven't seen any since last year. Possibly a case of everyone simply forgetting about the show.
-
Only two hours of Reality a week
-
And those two hours are Survivor & The Amazing Race.
-
Doesn't it? Single journalist, blonde, younger guy, likely a slacker. I mean, the comparisons are rife and its an ensemble like an Apatow movie.
-
if you're in the medical profession or law enforcement. Or apparently, a psychic. But what a bland, bland network. Whatever happened to going for a younger audience? And when I say younger, I mean younger than 80 years old.
-
I enjoyed the stories and the principal characters. Although I did not get why they added the gopher FBI agent.
As for loving the Mentalist, well, not so much. I forced myself through to the end of the pilot and tried another episode, but it just does not work for me. It was just too formulaic for me.
I enjoy watching the occasional episode of NCIS. But only when I stumble on it in a repeat over on USA. The characters are fun but the stories seem silly to me. -
"NCIS" is one of the best shows on television. I'll miss "The Unit", though. :(
-
I still won't be watching ANYTHING on CBS.
-
Hmm, sorry, I really have to disagree. I work on a college campus. They are constantly talking about:
LOST
24
NCIS
Big Bang Theory
Fringe
How I Met Your Mother (ugh)
Two and a Half Men
The Mentalist
Ugly Betty
Grey's Anatomy
They pretty much ignore:
Survivor and Amazing Race
CSI (all flavors), with the exception of NCIS...not sure why.
Cop Shows (like Unusuals, Life on Mars)
Dollhouse
Sarah Connor Chronicles
They also like some shows I've never seen:
Gossip Girl
Dancing with the Stars
American Idol (ok, I've seen that one, but could care less).
You'll note that a large number of the shows they talk about a LOT are on CBS... -
Ugh, sorry about the formatting on that last post.
-
The Unit has been a complete trainwreck from episode one. This last season has been the worst. Mamet has attempted to out-Neocon the Neocons. I find it amazing that a person of Mamet's intelligence has gone from being a traditional liberal to a Neocon at precisely the same time as the rest of the country was doing the exact opposite.
-
Steady schedule. People know when a show is going to be on unlike some networks I could mention in a cough [cough] Fox [cough]. All their crappy shows are given a chance to be terrible. Plus, the shows aren't very demanding of their audience. Whoever kills somebody gets caught by that one cop by the end of the show. Or, bad joke told, huge canned laugh.
-
Fuck.
-
damn you tools!
-
I liked the first year, but the home front drama was just too soapy for me. Although the "at home" stories did give Summer Glau and John Hamm in somewhat interesting guest roles. Politics aside, the military stories could be intriguing.
-
Seriously, just have her sit in a chair eating Cheetos. I don't care. She's HOT and her show has the best cast on TV.
-
the home front drama was dumb enough, but the move to use the wives as agents was LUDICROUS. The show really lost its way this past season. Mamet must have been working other projects, because it lost touch with his style in a big way.It didn't really earn another season--it had become an "eye roller" during most of the episodes. Too bad, really--in its prime, it was Greatness Exemplified.I like to think that when the cancellation call came, Mamet picked up the phone and said "Speak The Words"

Well Fringe and Mentalist both go to Thursdays jamming up with CSi, 30 Rock, The Office, Grey's Anatomy, Smallville, and Supernatural .
Tuesday will have the likes of Biggest loser and NCIS.. What a wasteland.. Does this make a lick of sense to anyone? How about spreading the ratings wealth around more than one night a week? -
Nevermind about my comment on Smallville on Thursdays with everything else.. it's been dumped to Friday's after a two year pick up? No longer on Thursdays.. and no longer remotely appointment TV ...but merely DVR fodder now.
-
Just that statement alone is funnier than most of what passes on CBS for comedy.
-
No Snake Doctor, Cool Breeze, Betty Blue, Whiplash, or Dirt Diver. You fucked up CBS. That was easily must see TV for me. Jack Bauer is the only other person on TV as badass as them. Sons of Anarchy would be dead in five minutes if they went up against them. Sydney Bristow would be hogtied in no time by them. Chuck's crew and the NCIS team goners. The A-Team would become the D-Team as in dead. Great show deserved a better time slot than late pre-empted sunday night. Miss it already.
-
go because they were becoming too expensive to produce, despite decent ratings? Is Charlie Sheen's cialis bill that high?
-
Hell its where I do most of my tv viewing anyways!
-
Hell its where I do most of my tv viewing anyways!
-
They don't have much, you know, NAVY there in Los Angeles anymore. What, too cheap to drive two hours to San Diego? There have been successful shows set in San Diego before, Simon and Simon comes to mind. This doesn't look good....
-
A show with Shawn Ryan and David Mamet? With David Palmer as a military badass? Well the '93 Mets looked good on paper too. Besides saddling the audience with a domestic homefront that didn't earn our time (killed Over There as well), they would also have us swallow Mr. Ex-Jennifer Garner as a leader of men--a decision akin to casting Danny Pintauro as a MILF rocking gigolo.
-
I never noticed how many freaking !!!! Herc uses,
Two Hours of NCIS!!!! more like ???? -
Is it 1992 again already? Is the CW on the Lost island; are they stuck "17 Years Earlier"?
-
"Without a Trace" was long past it's prime and it's time had come. But "Eleventh Hour" was engaging and had great potential! Sorry to see it go and dreck like "Ghost Whisperer" (which was bearable up uintil this past season) get renewed.
-
Just dump the "homefront" parts of it and keep it show about political intrigue and covert operations.
They pretty much had it set up for that at the end of the last season, with the black lady separating from her husband, the whore lady buying a house in montana or something, the young mom getting her kids back, etc...
Maybe a cameo here and there would be ok.
-
that show fucking sucks the meat hanky...poor copy of the show Life that got canceled by the cock suckers over at NBC
-
I loved last years short lived "Canterbury's Law" with Juliana Margulies as a frankly unlikable lawyer estranged from her husband because of their missing child. In "The Good Wife" the strikingly handsome actress plays... another lawyer, another wife, another mother - this time estranged from her husband who was jailed over a political corruption and sex scandal. (Insert 'The Jeri Ryan Story' comment here.)
-
For a solid fantasy based family drama with a great cast and some nice eye candy that never seems to get a talkback here, interesting to see that it's in the headlines of three front page talkbacks. yeah, I'm glad it's renewed, even if Columbia's milking it to beef up the syndication package.
-
I just got into this show this season and loved it! Why drop The Unit when you're picking up NBC's Shit series? Fucking Stupid Move.
-
I'll miss The Unit terribly, but thankfully CBS DOES have a show that can pretty much fill it's shoes. In fact, I like the dialogue in Flashpoint much better than the unit. The Unit's dialogue always bothered me (especially when the women had conversations): It's like they'd be talking past each other many times. Flashpoint is easily my favorite drama on network TV right now. They haven't had a bad or boring episode yet, and many of them are gut-wrenching (the chick in the mall and the one where the guy that developed SRU tries to kill himself come to mind).
-
Welcome to Dialogue with David Mamet! You just identified one of the hallmarks of his writing style. Congratulations! Of course, it's a bit watered-down for The Unit. Mamet can't really use his full talents or he might scare the rubes.

CBS revealed their utter ineptitude and should be openly mocked
by sauronthepowerful
A little history here that apparently needs to be remembered. Without A Trace was the first show to dethrone ER in the coveted Thursday Night NBC ratings war. The Agency (Trace's predecessor) had made strides towards breaking NBC's hold over the 10pm and very coveted slot but Without A Trace was "THE" show that finally broke the camel's back. While it is true that ER was in long decline by the 2002 debut of Trace, the quality of the storylines brought them an unexpected and astounding 11 share, then a 14 share, then a c.20share. This rocketed WAT as a ratings darling.
Enter the morons-in-management working on the three-sided wheel club. What absolutely boils my blood about this is that the show has been constantly disrespected by executive management over the past 4 years. For the fact alone that it dethroned ER, 'Trace' should have been a flagship of the network. However, some network genius(es) decided that it would function much better on Sunday nights paired with Cold Case, rather than CSI on Thursdays. Of course this was to make room for a sweetheart deal with James Woods getting preferential treatment to Anthony LaPaglia as the new kid in town so to speak. The results: What a wonderful ratings darling that abomination known as 'Shark' turned out to be. Good Job there CBS. Way to think on your feet!!!!!
This move obviously blew up in CBS' face with such glowing results of management's "creative thinking" yielding the whole first half of this season being pre-empted weekly by Sunday Night Football runovers so that the show wouldn't BEGIN until 11:00pm on a Sunday night. WHO HAS TIME FOR THAT????? Mercifully, after one disastrous season, it was put back into its proper timeslot and lo and behold the ratings went back up. If you want a REAL telling perspective on this read Petersen's quote about the 'genius' behind this schedule change when interviewed during the Trace-CSI crossover episode. The fact that there was even a CSI-Trace crossover should be indicative of the RESPECT That this show had earned and should have been accorded. Apparently not in good ol' Les' world.
Apparently the morons-in-management crew did NOT in fact learn the lessons of their first failure and decided to once again once again move (demote?) Without A Trace to Tuesday nights where it would begin to die a slow death in order that we make room for, get this, Eleventh Hour?????????? What exactly did 11th Hour earn to justify ripping a premiere product in a premium timeslot. The industry reviews PRIOR TO THE AIRING of the 11th Hour pilot were overwhelmingly negative and some even mocking. WTF CBS, nice way to treat a trophy in your case. Granted the soapy-writing had begun to feel trite and recycled. I would also submit that the show lost its edge when the procedural nature of season's 1,2 and 3 began to get usurped by the Lapaglia-Montgomery centric storylines. Still this is a pretty inglorious demise to what was once an unexpected powerhouse..... -
Will anyone actually watch the Jay Leno Experiment at all, let alone 5 nights a week? The bashing should be aimed at NBC, not CBS. At least CBS tries to give decent programs to watch.
-
Most ricky tick.
-
Will you watch the untitled ten oclock jay leno vehicle starring jay leno1 five night a week2 if it has a guest or band you like3 only if you're drugged and tied to chair4 never5 if the regular show you watch at ten is preempted or in reruns6 On Monday if he still does Headlines...
-
doesn't become like Two and a half men with humor for 12 year olds.
-
Shawn Ryan should call in a favor and give his show a home where he can give THE UNIT a bit more of an edge. He got away with a lot at CBS but imagine how great this show could be if it could carry the same nasty vibe as THE SHIELD.
-
That's it. Give us a Western. Anything! (And that's a real shame about Worst Week getting canceled.)
-
They had it with 'The Big Bang Theory' at 8PM leading in to 'How I Met Your Mother.' CBS would be wise to keep 'The Big Bang Theory' as far away from "that show with the fat kid" as possible.
