The CBS Upfronts

Today it was CBS' turn to announce their fall schedule and they didn't really provide any surprises.

Canceled shows include: "The Unit," "Without A Trace" and "Eleventh Hour." While all these shows are enjoyable, we already heard that they were on the bubble, so no one is really shocked.

CBS did decide to pick up "Medium" from NBC and pair it with "Ghost Whisperer" on Friday nights. You know it's only a matter of time before the inevitable crossover episodes.

Their new shows have already got the hype machine going for various reasons so I know their excited about that. The new schedule includes:

"NCIS: Los Angeles"-The highly anticipated "NCIS" spinoff starring LL Cool J and Chris O'Donnell was already launched with a two-hour pilot early this month during an episode of "NCIS." This looks like an exciting, technologically advanced version of "NCIS," however, it may take them awhile to generate the same team chemistry as the original.
"Three Rivers"-This medical drama about an organ transplant team stars "Moonlight's" Alex O'Loughlin and is set in Pittsburgh, hence the show's title. If O'Loughlin's rabid fanbase follows him to this show then it is guaranteed big numbers.
"The Good Wife"-This drama follows a lawyer's return to the courtroom after her husband is sent to jail. The show is a vehicle for Julianna Margulies return to series television. Margulies has struggled to find a hit since leaving "ER," but I suppose the third time's the charm.
"Miami Trauma"-This midseason replacement is about trauma room set in Miami. Think "ER" with the doctors in bikinis. It is produced by Jerry Bruckheimer which pretty much guarantees success.
"Accidentally on Purpose"-Jenna Elfman returns to comedies as a San Francisco film critic who finds herself pregnant after an affair with a younger man. Apparently hilarity ensues when she decides to keep the baby.

Fans can also look forward to the return of all the "CSIs," "How I Met Your Mother," "Two and a Half Men" and most of CBS' schedule. They renewed the majority of their schedule.

Next up The CW and a NBC recap.
