Breaking: CBS picks up four series

CBS has ordered four new series, including its reboot of Hawaii 5-0 starring Alex O’Loughlin, the Jim Belushi legal drama Defenders, the Tom Selleck police drama Blue Bloods, and the plus-sized comedy Mike and Molly.

Noticeably missing from the Eye’s first wave of pickups: The Criminal Minds spinoff. But CBS’ upfront is still two days away, so there’s still time. THIS JUST IN: The Minds offshoot is a go!

      No one in the entire world cares that you are first. At least leave some commentary on the post!

      Hasn’t Hawaii 5-0 been done before?

      • Desmo

        It’s called a remake.

      • Chaz Winterbottom

        Hawaii 5-0 done before? Nope, first time.

      • Silverchex

        Yep its been done before with Gary Busey as McGarrett…

    • Desmo

      … to be a douche.

        If they change it, they will make it all $#itty hip-hop or something like that. I hope Jack Lord isn’t turning in his grave.

    Cold Case! Cold Case! Renew it CBS!

    • Jill

      I agree. Cold Case is better then any CSI.

      • carolinagirl

        Same here! Please renew Cold Case. And does anyone else agree with me that the acting on CSI: Miama is absolutely horrific! I think it is time for this one to bite the dust!

      • KKKKKatie

        I agree with you Carolina Girl. I think the actress that plays Callie is horrible!! I thought to myself last week, “has she always been this bad or did I just ignore it?” LOL I watch the CSI shows on demand now, I don’t want to waste my DVR space.

      • Sue1

        I agree too! I really hope to see Cold Case back for another season. I have never been able to watch CSI:Miami due to my extreme aversion to what Davis Caruso calls acting, but I’m OK with the other two versions.

    • gia

      No way, it’s deader than dead.

    Cold Case! Cold Case! Renew it CBS!

    The words plus-sized comedy make me cringe. It’s going to be another (unfunny) show where they make fun of fat people (again and again). Because we all know anyone over a size 6 is horribly ugly (sarcasm). I hope it goes down in flames.

    • carolinagirl

      Have you watched Drop Dead Diva? This is a very entertaining show and while they did touch on her size in the first few episodes they are focusing more on her relationships and not too much is even said about her weight. This is a great show!

      • but the premise of mike & molly is based around their size — they meet at overeater’s anonymous.

      • Shiny

        I adore Drop Dead Diva. I just wish they’d air the repeats at a decent hour! Thanks to DDD I’m finally considering getting a DVR.

      • JRose38

        I’ve seen DDD and love it. I didn’t think it was going to be very good either, but it proved me wrong. Perhaps this will too, but I don’t have a lot of faith.

        DDD is very funny and it doesn’t concentrate on the fact that the main character is plus size. She encounters issues at times, but never whines or has low self-esteem. I think it’s a positive show. I know this is so wrong, but when I read that Mike and Molly meet at overeater’s anonymous I laughed out loud!!

    But this will have Alex O’Loughlin in a leading role. YUM-YUM :)

    • carolinagirl

      I just hope this does better than Three Rivers. It was an “all-right” show and I did not like what they did to Alex O’Loughlin’s hair! All of the sexy that was so obvious in Moonlight was just missing in Three Rivers. I am still watching the reruns of Moonlight and lamenting the loss of Mick, Beth and Joseph!

      • Anna

        If only he could act. Cold Case deserves renewal more than he deserves to be on TV again. Giving him another shot is an NBC level move.

    Selleck back? 5-0 (with Grace Park?!)…nice going CBS!

    • jake

      Both will be huge ratings I’m sure. and Grace Park is way hot!

    • phantom

      I’m not gay but I love Tom Selleck.

        Just take a different approach.

    Hawaii 5-0 and Defenders are remakes! Both of these shows were good when they were on but do we really need to see them again? Of course, I will tune in to Hawaii 5-0 just to see Alex O’Laughlin but I am not sure who else is in the cast and don’t know anyone in Defenders.

    • Bobby’s Robot

      Daniel Dae-Kim from LOST is in H50.

    • Ruby

      are there no fresh ideas in Hollywood? all these ‘remakes’ are just excuses for lazy people. Keep Cold Case!!!!!!!

      • Ruby

        also please drop boring CSI-Miami and give Cold Case that time slot!

    • Machunny

      My bedtime used to be when the Hawaii 5-0 music came on; I hated the show just for that. That said, I’m excited to see Daniel Dae-Kim has a new gig, and I hear James Marsters is at least in the pilot. Everything tastes better with Marsters.
