CBS cancellations and their new shows

CBS, the #1 broadcast network, finally made a decision on some of their "bubble" shows, after picking a large chunk of their hit series. After 10 years of horrible acting, writing and paint-by-number stories, CSI: Miami is going down. The less expensive to produce, CSI: New York, however, will be back. Also gone was freshman drama Unforgettable, A Gifted Man, Rob and NYC 22. Rules of Engagement life remains a mystery, as the show does have some fans within the CBS and has been used before to plug spots when other shows get the ax. 

New Shows include: 

Made In Jersey: Centers on a working-class woman who uses her street smarts to compete with her more polished colleagues at a tony Manhattan law firm.

Elementary: Which is the networks so close-they-had-change-the-sex-of-Watson-so-they-would-not-be-sued-by-the-BBC-for-stealing-their-own-it modern day version of Sherlock Holmes now living in NYC.

Friend Me: which centers on twenty-something best friends, Evan and Rob, who move from their hometown of Bloomington, Indiana to Los Angeles to begin their exciting new lives working at Groupon.

Golden Boy: which is about the making of a man – tracks one cop’s meteoric rise from officer to detective to Police Commissioner.

Partners: Which is based on life of the creators of Will & Grace. Architects Charlie and Louis’ friendship has lasted longer than either of their romantic relationships and almost seems like a weird marriage. When Charlie decides to propose to his girlfriend, Louis’ neurotic attempts to be supportive nearly result in the breakup of his own relationship.

Vegas: Set in the 1960s and is based on the true story of Ralph Lamb – rodeo cowboy turned longtime Sheriff of Las Vegas.
