They should've just cast Rashida Jones again. I guess Unhitched isn't cancelled yet, though.

The Tower looks to be going ahead. CCH Pounder and Cole Hauser are leading and it has ties to Cold Case. It looks interesting. CCH Pounder is one of the best actresses working today, and she's well casted here.

Hopes always run higher than they should in pilot season but I have been struck by CBS's accumulation of both production and acting talent this season.

Yes, they have hired a lot of talented people. It could be very good year for CBS with a few new shows becoming hits.

Didn't a lot of people think past shows like Cane and Smith had great casts? I certainly did. The problem is that good casts don't make good shows. Overall quality makes something good.

Note the word "production" in my post. In the case of the two shows you mentioned, the writing in CANE was widely considered to be dreadful, even by people who tried to stick with the show, and SMITH was even worse.

I'm liking some of the combos of production and acting and the type of shows being considered.

Marcia Gay Harden and Rosamund Pike just got added to the cast of The Tower. It is shaping up to be a phenominal cast. Hopefully they have some good scripts to work with.
