[ # ] CBS changes up their Fall schedule
July 17th, 2023 under CBS

Last week, the actors joined the writers on strike, and Hollywood shut down. Therefore, the broadcast networks are changing up their falls so that they have something to air in September.
Fox announced they are going heavy on unscripted and pre-produced animation. And today, CBS revealed they will be airing a lot of unscripted programs, repeats, and imports from their streaming service and overseas.

I find it interesting that SEAL Team, which CBS sent down to Paramount+ after four seasons, is back in the major league. And I have been saying for months that the networks were going to start stealing from their streaming services to fill time. I am surprised that ABC didn’t do that with Disney+’s library. Maybe they will if this strike continues.

Also, I am happy they are airing the British version of Ghosts. Although, I didn’t love it as much as ours with the few episodes I watched.

To read descriptions of their Fall series, then

YELLOWSTONE

From MTV Entertainment Studios and 101 Studios, YELLOWSTONE stars Oscar, Emmy and Golden Globe winner Kevin Costner as John Dutton, the patriarch of a powerful, complicated family of ranchers.

He operates in a corrupt world where politicians are compromised by influential oil and lumber corporations and land grabs make developers billions. Amid shifting alliances, unsolved murders, open wounds and hard-earned respect, Dutton’s property is in constant conflict with those it borders – an expanding town, an Indian reservation and America’s first national park. Starring Kevin Costner, Luke Grimes, Kelly Reilly, Wes Bentley, Cole Hauser, Kelsey Asbille and Gil Birmingham. YELLOWSTONE is co-created by Oscar-nominated screenwriter Taylor Sheridan (“Wind River,” “Hell or High Water” and “Sicario”) and John Linson.
