Cold Case is expected to make the cut at CBS. Without a Trace is looking dicey...same goes with The Unit.

Ashley Edward Miller, one of Terminator's writers/Producers, claims he hasn't heard anything about the cancellation according to his Twitter page. I guess he will get the official call tomorrow.

According to several people they have known for months the show was not going to return. WB pretty much gave the show away for free to Fox for the back 9 just to try and promote Salvation. Glau even took a movie deal 2 weeks ago that would have her not be available for the show.

And for those thinking it might get picked up by another network - its not. WB is no longer shopping the show around. It's dead.

Shame about The Unusuals. Of course it was a long shot, though.

BONES will see a season 5 AND 6.

Glad to see Dollhouse renewed! I'll have to watch Fringe, I never started watching it, then I see it's a J.J. Abrams show and read good things about the finale.

Never thought that was going to happen. Unfortunately, it's on ABC, so if it's good and I like it, it is certain to die a quick death.

Head of Fox:

Terminator vs. Dollhouse, “Terminator’s run is completed” “That’s it for Terminator”, “not an either or with Dollhouse”

Chuck
Castle
Bones
Scrubs I guess. Would've been fine if they went out they way they did, but I'll watch another season.

I need to finish watching Dollhouse, but I'm glad Joss finally got a second season from Fox.

I posted something about them retooling it as a multi camera sitcom to lower the costs.

Re: Network Upfronts 2009 (2009-2010 Presentations)

CBS has greenlighted the following new shows for Fall. Alot of Alex O'Loughlin fans should be happy. 2 Medical shows though?

http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/...e3e3b9d6f1bb7c


CBS is betting on stars for next season.

The network on Monday morning handed out series orders to the "NCIS" spinoff, toplined by LL Cool J and Chris O'Donnell, legal drama "The Good Wife," starring Julianna Margulies, medical drama "Three Rivers" starring Alex O'Loughlin, the Jenna Elfman comedy starrer "Accidentally on Purpose," as well as the Jerry Bruckheimer-produced ensemble medical drama "Miami Trauma."

As a precursor to the orders, the network over the weekend gave most of the projects a greenlight to start making offers to writers and directors.

Additionally, the network is ordering unscripted series "Undercover Boss," an U.K. format described as "Secret Millionaire" meets "Dirty Jobs."

It has also given its blessing to ABC Studios to start staffing the drama "House Rules."

The "NCIS" spinoff, "Three Rivers," "The Good Wife" and "Accidentally" are produced by sister studio CBS TV Studios, while "Trauma" comes from Warner Bros. TV.

The "NCIS" spinoff, "Wife," "Rivers" and "Accidentally on Purpose" had been early standouts at the network, while "Miami Trauma" picked up steam in the final couple of weeks.

There had been speculation that CBS may only launch one medical drama, but the network ultimately opted to go with both "Rivers," starring one of its signature players, "Moonlight" star O'Loughlin, and "Trauma," produced by its top drama producer, Bruckheimer.

The pickup of "Trauma" makes for another strong pilot season for Bruckheimer, whose both pilots, including ABC's "The Forgotten" got orders.

The multi-camera "Accidentally on Purpose," from writer Claudia Lonow, is about a movie critic (Elfman) who gets pregnant after a fling with a younger man, and the unconventional family that comes from the mistake. Jon Foster, Ashley Jensen, Grant Show and Lennon Parham co-star.

The show looks like a good companion for "The New Adventures of Old Christine."

It also means that Jensen, who left "Ugly Betty" at the end of this season, will be back in primetime next season.

The "NCIS" spinoff, introduced in two episodes of the veteran crime drama this spring, hails from "NCIS" exec producer/showrunner Shane Brennan.

The cast also includes Louise Lombard, Peter Cambor and Daniela Ruah

Written by Robert King and Michelle King and directed by Charles McDougall, it stars Margulies as a politician's wife who joins a law firm as an associate. Archie Panjabi, Christine Baranski, Chris Noth, Matt Czuchry, Josh Charles and Graham Phillips co-star in the project, exec produced by Robert and Michelle King, Ridley Scott, Tony Scott and David Zucker.

Penned by Carol Barbee, "Rivers" is a medical show about organ transplants seen through three points of view: the doctors, the donors and the recipients.

Co-starring opposite O'Loughlin are Christopher J. Hanke, Justina Machado, Katherine Moennig, Daniel Henney and Julia Ormond. CBS orders 'Good Wife,' 'NCIS' spinoffNet taps Jenna Elfman, LL Cool J, Julianna MarguliesBy Nellie Andreeva
