New Drama FBI: INTERNATIONAL at 9:00 PM, and FBI: MOST WANTED at 10:00 PM

The Tribe Has Spoken! SURVIVOR Returns to Wednesday at 8:00 PM

New Drama GOOD SAM, New Comedy SMALLWOOD and

New Competition Series COME DANCE WITH ME to Debut Mid-Season

Special-Event Programming Includes a New Global Citizen Reality Series, THE ACTIVIST, and Two New CBS Original Movies, A CHRISTMAS PROPOSAL and CHRISTMAS TAKES FLIGHT

CBS today announced its 2021-2022 primetime programming lineup of CBS Originals, featuring the expansion of television’s biggest franchises, the launch of a distinctive and highly “spirited” new comedy, plus bold scheduling moves on key nights. The new schedule includes four new dramas, two new comedies, special event programming, and 22 returning series. For 2020-2021, the Network finished #1 for the 13th straight season, winning 18 of the past 19 seasons.

The three highly anticipated new dramas for fall with marquee value and built-in viewer appeal include new chapters in the Network’s most successful brands: NCIS: HAWAI ' I, starring Vanessa Lachey as the first female Special Agent in Charge of the NCIS Pearl Harbor field office; FBI: INTERNATIONAL, from Emmy Award-winning producer Dick Wolf; and CSI: VEGAS, the sequel to the Network’s global hit “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation,” with original cast members William Petersen and Jorja Fox joining forces with the new team lead by Paula Newsome.

Fall’s distinctive new comedy is GHOSTS, based on the critically acclaimed BBC series, starring Rose McIver and Utkarsh Ambudkar as the new owners of a country estate inhabited by an eclectic group of deceased residents.

The fall schedule also includes the return of #1 Series NCIS, #1 comedy YOUNG SHELDON, #1 new comedy UNITED STATES OF AL, #1 new series THE EQUALIZER, and the #1 news program 60 MINUTES. In addition, the groundbreaking reality show SURVIVOR returns with new editions in the fall and spring.

New series debuting later in the season include the medical drama GOOD SAM, starring Sophia Bush and Jason Isaacs; SMALLWOOD, a comedy based on professional bowler Tom Smallwood’s life, starring Pete Holmes, Katie Lowes and Chi McBride; and the family competition series executive produced by LL COOL J and Chris O’Donnell, COME DANCE WITH ME, hosted by Philip Lawrence. Returning shows include the Emmy Award-winning UNDERCOVER BOSS, Emmy Award-winning THE AMAZING RACE (pending its return to production), and the action-adventure drama BLOOD & TREASURE.

Also this season, CBS will feature special-event programming, including THE ACTIVIST, a competition series aimed at bringing change to important world causes; and two CBS Original Movies: A CHRISTMAS PROPOSAL, starring Adam Rodriguez and Jessica Camacho; and CHRISTMAS TAKES FLIGHT.

“This season, we proved we could create a winning schedule against seemingly insurmountable odds,” said Kelly Kahl, President, CBS Entertainment. “Next season, we aim to repeat that success with bold, strategic scheduling moves designed to strengthen nights and maximize flow across the week. We’re expanding three of our biggest, globally popular franchises, returning 22 fan favorites while nurturing our newer rising hits, and adding a host of year-round original programming that will appeal to viewers and advertisers alike.”

CBS’ fall schedule highlights include NCIS: HAWAI ' I paired with NCIS on Monday; FBI: INTERNATIONAL on Tuesday, between FBI and FBI: MOST WANTED; CSI: VEGAS on Wednesday, following SURVIVOR and TOUGH AS NAILS; and on Thursday, GHOSTS joins the night’s solid two-hour comedy block, with top performer BULL capping the night. Also, SEAL TEAM will have a four-episode special event on Sunday before it moves to Paramount+, with S.W.A.T. taking the 10:00 PM slot later in the season.

MONDAYS – A bold scheduling move and a high-profile new series highlight CBS’ Monday. The successful one-hour comedy block of TV’s #2 and #3 returning comedies, THE NEIGHBORHOOD and BOB ♥ ABISHOLA, opens the night from 8:00-9:00 PM. At 9:00 PM, television’s #1 scripted series, NCIS, moves to its new night for season 19, providing a potent launch pad and creating a compelling two-hour drama block with the newest iteration in the NCIS franchise, NCIS: HAWAI ' I, at 10:00 PM.

TUESDAYS – Two established hits bracket an exciting new series on a night of three Dick Wolf dramas. A proven top performer, FBI takes the 8:00 PM mantel, giving a dominant lead-in for the new series in the FBI brand, FBI: INTERNATIONAL, at 9:00 PM. FBI: MOST WANTED remains in its winning 10:00 PM slot, bookending a formidable night of programming that will launch with a three-hour crossover premiere event in the fall.

WEDNESDAYS – SURVIVOR and CSI are back on a night featuring masterful strategy and teamwork! Drop your buffs! SURVIVOR, hosted by Jeff Probst, returns to outwit, outplay and outlast, kicking off the night at 8:00 PM, with two new seasons in fall and spring. At 9:00 PM, the torch is passed to competition series TOUGH AS NAILS, which celebrates hardworking everyday Americans who consider the calluses on their hands a badge of honor, hosted by Phil Keoghan. Then, the new chapter of one of the most-watched drama series of the 21st century, CSI: VEGAS, caps the night at 10:00 PM.

THURSDAYS – Thursday’s schedule adds a “high-spirited” comedy and BULL to its winning lineup. YOUNG SHELDON, television’s #1 comedy, once again anchors the night at 8:00 PM, leading into the #1 new comedy, UNITED STATES OF AL, at 8:30 PM. Next, at 9:00 PM is GHOSTS, a unique “extra-ordinary” new series, followed by the #2 new comedy, B POSITIVE, at 9:30 PM. At 10:00 PM, an established top drama, BULL, moves to Thursday to power the time period and the night.

FRIDAYS – CBS’ most dominant night adds a top player. S.W.A.T. starts its fifth season on its new night at 8:00 PM, with new unscripted programming coming later in the season. Time-period winner MAGNUM P.I. returns for its fourth season at 9:00 PM. Friday’s #1 program, BLUE BLOODS, returns at 10:00 PM, where it will celebrate its 250th family dinner and close out one of television’s strongest nights.

SATURDAYS – CBS’ Saturday night lineup features encore broadcasts of the Network’s popular dramas at 8:00 PM and 9:00 PM, followed at 10:00 PM by the true crime docuseries 48 HOURS, Saturday’s #1 non-sports primetime series.

SUNDAYS – CBS’ Sunday night has been #1 for six of the last seven seasons with regularly scheduled programming. 60 MINUTES, television’s acclaimed #1 news program, returns at 7:00 PM, providing a dominant lead-in for season two of television’s #1 new show, THE EQUALIZER, starring Queen Latifah, at 8:00 PM, which is also TV’s top show among African American viewers. At 9:00 PM, steady performer NCIS: LOS ANGELES returns for its 13th season and 300th episode, followed by the four-episode event of SEAL TEAM at 10:00 PM, before it moves to Paramount+. S.W.A.T. takes over the 10:00 PM time period later in the season.

THE NEW FALL DRAMAS:

NCIS: HAWAI ' I (Monday, 10:00-11:00 PM)

The world’s most successful television series continues on the seductive shores of the Aloha State with NCIS: HAWAI ' I, where the first female Special Agent in Charge of NCIS Pearl Harbor, Jane Tennant (Vanessa Lachey), has thrived and risen through the ranks by equal parts confidence and strategy in a system that has pushed back on her every step of the way. Together with her unwavering team of specialists, they balance duty to family and country while investigating high-stakes crimes involving military personnel, national security and the mysteries of the sun-drenched island paradise itself. Matt Bosack, Jan Nash and Christopher Silber serve as executive producers for CBS Studios. Larry Teng is an executive producer and directed (initial episode only) from a script by Bosack, Nash and Silber.

FBI: INTERNATIONAL (Tuesday, 9:00-10:00 PM)

From Emmy Award-winning executive producer Dick Wolf, fast-paced drama FBI: INTERNATIONAL is the third iteration of the successful FBI brand that follows the elite operatives of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s International Fly Team. Headquartered in Prague, they travel the world with the mission of tracking and neutralizing threats against American citizens wherever they may be. Not allowed to carry guns, the Fly Team relies on intelligence, quick thinking and pure brawn as they put their lives on the line to protect the U.S. and its people. Dick Wolf, Derek Haas, Matt Olmstead, Arthur Forney and Peter Jankowski are the executive producers. The series is produced by Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group, in association with CBS Studios.

CSI: VEGAS (Wednesday, 10:00-11:00 PM)

CSI: VEGAS, the sequel to the Network’s global hit “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation,” opens a brand-new chapter in Las Vegas—the city where it all began. Facing an existential threat that could bring down the entire Crime Lab and release thousands of convicted killers back onto the neon-lit streets of Vegas, a brilliant new team of investigators led by Maxine Roby (Paula Newsome) must enlist the help of old friends, Gil Grissom (William Petersen), Sara Sidle (Jorja Fox) and David Hodges (Wallace Langham). This combined force will deploy the latest forensic techniques to do what they do best—follow the evidence—in order to preserve and serve justice in Sin City. Jason Tracey serves as executive producer and showrunner; Jerry Bruckheimer, Jonathan Littman, KristieAnne Reed, Anthony Zuiker, Carol Mendelsohn, Ann Donahue, Craig O’Neill, William Petersen and Cindy Chvatal are also executive producers. Uta Briesewitz is an executive producer and directed (initial episode only) from a script by Tracey. The series is produced by CBS Studios in association with Jerry Bruckheimer Television.

NEW FALL COMEDY

GHOSTS (Thursday, 9:00-9:30 PM)

GHOSTS is a single-camera comedy about Samantha (Rose McIver) and Jay (Utkarsh Ambudkar), a cheerful freelance journalist and up-and-coming chef from the city, respectively, who throw both caution and money to the wind when they decide to convert a huge rundown country estate they inherited into a bed & breakfast—only to find it’s inhabited by the many spirits of deceased residents who now call it home. The departed souls are a close-knit, eclectic group that includes a saucy Prohibition-era lounge singer, a pompous 1700’s Militiaman, a ‘60s hippie fond of hallucinogens, an overly upbeat ‘80s scout troop leader, a cod-obsessed Viking explorer from 1009, a slick ‘90s finance bro, a sarcastic and witty Native from the 1500s, and a society woman and wife of an 1800’s robber baron who is Samantha’s ancestor, to name a few. If the spirits were anxious about the commotion a renovation and B&B will create in their home, it’s nothing compared to when they realize Samantha is the first live person who can see and hear them. Joe Port & Joe Wiseman, Mathew Baynton, Jim Howick, Simon Farnaby, Laurence Rickard, Ben Willbond and Martha Howe-Douglas; Alison Carpenter, Debra Hayward, and Alison Owen (Monumental Television); and Angie Stephenson (BBC Studios) are the executive producers for CBS Studios in association with Lionsgate Television and BBC Studios’ Los Angeles production arm. Trent O’Donnell is an executive producer (pilot only) and directed the pilot from a script by Port & Wiseman. Based on the BBC Studios distributed format.

NEW COMEDY FOR MID-SEASON

SMALLWOOD

SMALLWOOD, based on professional bowler Tom Smallwood’s life, stars Pete Holmes as Tom, a stoic Midwest husband and dad who gets laid off from a car assembly line and makes the extraordinary decision to provide for his family by following his dream of becoming a professional bowler. As a skilled player, Tom knows that in bowling you get two chances; no matter what you do with the first ball, you get another one to make it right—the ultimate second chance. Keeping that in mind, Tom begins his new career with the loving okay from his wife, Jen (Katie Lowes), and the unfaltering support of Archie (Chi McBride), his mentor and the proud owner of Archie’s Lanes: Home of the Curly Fry. It remains to be seen if Tom will strike it big on the Pro Bowler circuit, but right now, the pins are set, he’s taking his second shot and it’s 300 or bust! Mark Gross, David Hollander and Brian D’Arcy James serve as executive producers for CBS Studios. Mark Cendrowski directed the pilot from a script by Gross.

SMALLWOOD stars Pete Holmes as Tom, Chi McBride as Archie, and Katie Lowes as Jen.

NEW DRAMA FOR MID-SEASON:

GOOD SAM

GOOD SAM stars Sophia Bush (“Chicago” franchise, “One Tree Hill”) and Jason Isaacs (STAR TREK: DISCOVERY, “Harry Potter” films) in a drama about Dr. Sam Griffith (Bush), a gifted heart surgeon who excels in her new leadership role as Chief of Surgery after her renowned boss falls into a coma. When her former boss wakes up months later demanding to resume his duties, Sam is tasked with supervising this egotistical expert with a scalpel who never acknowledged her stellar talent. Complicating matters is that the caustic and arrogant Dr. Rob “Griff” Griffith (Isaacs) also happens to be her father. As Griff defies Sam’s authority and challenges her medical expertise, the big question becomes whether this father and daughter will ever be able to mend their own relationship as expertly as they heal the hearts of their patients. Katie Wech, Jennie Snyder Urman and Joanna Klein serve as executive producers for CBS Studios. Tamra Davis is an executive producer (pilot only) and directed the pilot from a script by Wech.

GOOD SAM stars Sophia Bush as Dr. Sam Griffith, Jason Isaacs as Dr. Rob “Griff” Griffith, Skye P. Marshall as Dr. Lex Trulie, Michael Stahl-David as Dr. Caleb Tucker, Davi Santos as Dr. Joey Costa, Omar Maskati as Dr. Isan M. Shah, Wendy Crewson as Vivian Katz, and Edwin Hodge as Malcolm A. Kingsley.

UNSCRIPTED SERIES

In COME DANCE WITH ME, exceptionally talented young dancers from across the country invite one inspirational, untrained family member or other adult who has supported their dance dreams, to become their dance partner for a chance to strut their stuff for a grand prize. The series is hosted by Philip Lawrence with judges Jenna Dewan, Tricia Miranda and Dexter Mayfield. Each week, these aspiring kids will share their love of dance with their mother, father, grandparent or other hero on an uplifting and emotional journey to learn and perform challenging routines, with the assistance of professional choreographers, in a competition with other duos. COME DANCE WITH ME is produced by CBS Studios and 3 Ball Productions. LL COOL J, Chris O’Donnell, Reinout Oerlemans, Ross Weintraub and Jeff Altrock, Jeff Thacker, Nick Florez and RJ Durell are executive producers.

SPECIAL EVENT PROGRAMMING

THE ACTIVIST is a competition series featuring six inspiring activists teamed with three high-profile public figures working together to bring meaningful change to one of three vitally important world causes: health, education and environment. Activists go head-to-head in challenges to promote their causes, with their success measured via online engagement, social metrics and hosts’ input. The three teams have one ultimate goal: to create impactful movements that amplify their message, drive action, and advance them to the G20 Summit in Rome, Italy. There, they will meet with world leaders in the hope of securing funding and awareness for their causes. The team that receives the largest commitment is celebrated as the overall winner at the finale, which will also feature musical performances by some of the world’s most passionate artists. The series is produced by Global Citizen (“Vax Live: A Concert to Reunite the World”), and Deviant Media, Inc.

A CHRISTMAS PROPOSAL

A down-on-her-luck chef who dreams of starting her own line of food trucks agrees to pose as the girlfriend of a hotshot Seattle attorney visiting his family for Christmas. Working together, they try to prove he’s the ideal candidate to take over the family firm, but their business arrangement is complicated by the magic of the season as real sparks begin to fly. The movie is produced by Motion Picture Corporation of America. Adam Rodriguez (“CSI: Miami,” “Criminal Minds”) and Jessica Camacho (“All Rise”) star.

CHRISTMAS TAKES FLIGHT

When a handsome but frugal CEO takes over a family-owned regional airline and plans to cut their annual Christmas charity event, the original owner’s daughter, who is a pilot for the airline, rallies the community to save the event, and finds unexpected love in the process. The movie is produced by Motion Picture Corporation of America.

Blue Bloods is the Energizer Bunny of CBS and still great creatively. Blue Bloods needs to get at least 15 seasons, unlike Mark Harmon on NCIS, Tom Selleck seems happy staying full time. Fake Magnum is the Friday show that should end next year, give it a quick death like Fake MacGyver got this year.

One minor detail that some viewers will notice sooner or later: CBS, starting this season, has been having their logo bug on the bottom-left corner of the screen instead of the bottom-right, just like NBC's (it's also been shrunk slightly). Time will tell at this point if ABC, FOX, or The CW (who still have their logo bugs at the bottom-right corner) will start doing the same.

It looks like CBS might have reconsidered their original plan of sending S.W.A.T. to Sundays after Seal Team moves to Paramount+. On November 7 an NCIS: Hawaii repeat is airing after the new NCIS: Los Angeles. And S.W.A.T. is still listed as new on November 5. Really it is a stronger Friday lead-off show than MacGyver last year. This past week S.W.A.T. tied Shark Tank and did a lot better than NBC's reality show at 8:00.

Odds are Bull won't be a current show in a few more months. With its move to Thursday, Bull has become easily CBS's lowest rated show. It will end for sure, and NCIS should end as well. I decided to stick with it for Mark Harmon's last episodes and Gary Cole's first episode as the lead. He makes for a terrible NCIS lead, CBS should have listened when Mark said he didn't want to come back and end NCIS last season.

Grrr! CBS sticks with its original plan of sending S.W.A.T. to the Sunday death slot. And how stupid putting Good Sam against Sophia Bush's former show, they should have aired Good Sam on Thursday and move Bull to Wednesday. No premiere date for Smallwood is good news for the current Thursday comedy block. I like watching all four of those comedies back-to-back. Smallwood could air Wednesdays at 9:30 after 90 minute episodes of Survivor.

1. With Ghosts, has CBS already found the perfect heir apparent to Young Sheldon as the top single-camera comedy in America?

2. I was hesitant about Blue Bloods surpassing the run-length of the original Dallas series, considering its 18-49 demo ratings have always been poor (its best such rating was a 2.2, and that was for its first-ever episode). Before the pandemic, I thought BB would end after its (current) 12th season. The only reason BB is continuing to do well right now is because its viewers want to avoid the boring two-hour Datelines and 20/20s. Alright, BB, if you want to tie or beat Dallas and become become the longest-running "Friday Night Delight" in America, go right ahead.

CBS is TV's most-watched network in total viewers for the 14th straight year (https://tvline.com/2022/05/03/cbs-most-watched-network-2022-ncis-ghosts-ncis-hawaii/)

CBS' season-to-date average of 6.35 million viewers -- topping NBC's 6.25 million -- has allowed the network to declare victory with three weeks to go in the 2021-2022 TV season. This is the second time CBS has had the most viewers while competing with NBC's Super Bowl and Olympics coverage. This season, NBC has the No. 1 drama in NCIS, the No. 1 comedy in Young Sheldon, the No. 1 new series overall and comedy in Ghosts and the No. 1 new drama in NCIS: Hawai’i.

I do like Young Sheldon but it’s not a comedy. It’s a Dramedy like Father Knows Best or The Wonder Years (both versions).

I will really miss Good Sam, Sophia Bush is such a charming lead. I am grateful CBS aired all 13 episodes with Sam's low ratings and didn't pull it.

Wow, Chuck Lorre's clout at CBS has gone way down. I am shocked both B Positive AND United States of Al were cancelled, when I saw the Al news that first broke last night had assumed that meant B Positive was safe.

Good riddance to fake Magnum, their Friday ace Blue Bloods has outlived it and fake MacGyver combined. :lol: Peter Lenkov won't be missed, he doesn't have an original bone in his body just ripping off other shows.

CBS also passed on all four of their comedy pilots as well as the other cancellations so only two hours of comedy will be on the fall schedule. Three dramas were ordered to series. East New York sounds the most promising of them, this is what I would schedule.

Sunday
7:00 60 Minutes
8:00 The Equalizer
9:00 Fire Country
10:00 Repeats to fix the overrun problem- Make it a comedy repeat when the national game goes to 7:30. CBS didn't pick up much this year to replace what was cancelled so it could happen.

Monday
8:00 The Neighborhood
8:30 Bob Hearts Abishola
9:00 NCIS final season- This show is creatively bankrupt now, put og NCIS out of its misery.
10:00 NCIS: Hawaii

Tuesday
8:00 FBI
9:00 FBI: International
10:00 FBI: Most Wanted

Wednesday
8:00 Survivor
9:00 So Help Me Todd- Fire Country would have been better here but that would put it against Chicago Fire.
10:00 CSI: Vegas

Thursday- I thought about moving the Monday comedy hour here for a two hour block but The Neighborhood does well leading off that night.
8:00 Young Sheldon
8:30 Ghosts
9:00 East New York
10:00 S.W.A.T.

Friday
8:00 Lingo or Tough as Nails
9:00 NCIS: Los Angeles
10:00 Blue Bloods
