And the CW project sounds exactly like a rehash of Grey's Anatomy. They didn't even have to put it in the article to pull that similarity.

I agree, the characters is what keeps me watching CM, not the crime of the week althought I like that they get into the criminal minds to try to understand what they do and stop them in the end what keeps me watching week after week are the characters.

I will give a look at the spin off but I do not like the idea of a second BAU, there is suppose to be just one BAU and now we will have what The BAU: Texas?

From what I understand is they will be introducing the spin-off later on during this season of CM. (Kind of like they did with NCIS: Los Angeles).

That's my understanding also. Episode 17 will be the spinoff and then if the spinoff is ordered to series, it will be scheduled in the fall.

Survivor is a very interesting choice. I think if the cast is good, then it definately has a chance of getting the timeslot.

That would be my first guess for dramas. But, I'm really leaning towards Survivor now. 20th season, All-Stars edition, and declining ratings - the Superbowl could be the thing to jumpstart the franchise once again. And, with the All-Stars edition, airing the premiere after the Superbowl could get old and new viewers to stick around. It worked before, so it'll probably work again.

Only if it has Russel from this season and Coach from last season!
