CBS announces their Fall 2013 with a yawn, no major shake-ups, although the line-up is already pretty solid. Their comedies are staying in the same place, and the only shows which are switching spots are Hawaii Five-O, which is moving to Friday at 9 (a sign of a lack of faith), and Person of Interest is moving from Thursday at 9 to Tuesday at 10 (which will help it). The other major news is that Mike & Molly (starring Melissa McCarthy) is being held until mid-season to let another Chuck Lorre series launch. Lorre does good business for the eye network, and Mom (which is is that spot) should be another successful show for the network.
CBS is showing great faith in its new comedies expanding Thursday nights comedy line-up to two full hours, which will be in direct competition with NBCs no longer named Must See TV. Putting The Millers, and The Crazy Ones in between Two and a Half Men is a brilliant move. CBS is using their highest rated comedies to help launch two of their more promising comedy series. Listed below is the schedule and a description of the new shows.
