Based on what I've been reading the front runners for pick up are Eleventh Hour, The Mentalist, The Tower, Single White Millionaire, and Mike Birbiglia's Secret Public Journal. I'm sure CBS will pick up either Ny-Lon or Mythological Ex to have a go at the female demos but I don't think it will last very long on the network. It's not the first time networks have ignored focus groups and put something on air.

Thanks for clearing that up Bruce. I stil say she'll have 3 new dramas next fall, another hour of comedies, and the returning Amazing Race.

No they weren't and THE MENTALIST and ELEVENTH HOUR were prioritized in her comments a few weeks ago. But MYTH EX and NY-LON were mentioned in the same comments, not as shows that she was ready to say "looked good" but rather as shows she was hopeful would diversify the type of procedurals they would have.

Well those weren't the leading pilots from what we've heard from Nina herself. She was real high on the Mentalist from what I heard and I also think the likes of Exit 19 and Eleventh Hour have good shots of getting on the air.

I think you are on to something. A lot of the CBS pilots are being tested in focus groups this week and on boards, there has been a lot of negative feedback for the pilots of Mythological Ex, Ny-Lon, and Can Openers.

My guess is that something in development that looked good a few weeks ago, making SHARK look totally expendable, may have lost its priority thus bringing SHARK back into the picture.

THE UNIT is just sort of laying around in inventory at this point, a show they would be comfortable coming back with if they had to at some point, but one they would like to do without.
