CBS makes its move

UPFRONTS: CBS has unveiled its primetime line-up for 2012/13, with new timeslots for Two and a Half Men and 2 Broke Girls.

The network ordered a total of six new series for the coming year. The four dramas are Elementary, Vegas, Made in Jersey, and Golden Boy, which will air alongside comedies Partners and Friend Me.

Meanwhile, 19 series return, including CSI, The Big Bang Theory, Hawaii Five-O, NCIS, and How I Met Your Mother.

Mid-season will hold debuts for new reality series The Job, Golden Boy and Friend Me, alongside returning Undercover Boss.

However, the network decided to cancel dramas CSI: Miami and Unforgettable.

“These new series feature a great range of bold concepts, rich characters, big stars and fresh faces,” said Nina Tassler, president of CBS Entertainment.

“From a new take on Sherlock Holmes to an epic battle for control of 1960s Las Vegas to a working-class point of view in a prestigious law firm, the dramas each have a unique style and sensibility. And our new comedy Partners fits perfectly with the CBS Monday night tradition of relationship comedies with a lot of heart and humour.”
