A new pilot from Law & Order guru Dick Wolf is in the works for NBC, featuring "an unconventional female detective" who solves the murders of anonymous victims, according to Variety .Lost and Found will be written by Law & Order alum Chris Levinson, and pick up is contingent upon who they cast to headline the show.Sound familiar? I thought so, too. The first thing that comes to mind when the words, "unconventional female detective," are pitched is the plethora of successful shows... read more

Reader Jeer of the Week: Cold Case Doesn't Add Up | Cheers & Jeers | 11/9/2007
From Roy Herstein in San Francisco...Jeers to the Nov. 4 episode of Cold Case for thinking we wouldn't do the math. The murder takes place 69 years ago in 1938. All of the major characters are, at best, in their early thirties, which would make all of them over 100 today. Miraculously, they are all still alive and played by actors in their seventies and eighties, like Pa Walton (Ralph Waite) and Seinfeld's Uncle Leo (Len Lesser).• Read and react to Bruce's opinions on AMC's Mad Men reruns,... read more
New Face, Same Old Minds | Roush Dispatch | 10/31/2007
Say this for Joe Mantegna: He doesn’t make Criminal Minds any worse. Like that’s even possible. This inexplicably popular crime drama remains the most pretentious, the most simplistic and the most dehumanizing of CBS’ current glut of procedurals. Replacing Mandy Patinkin, who quit between seasons — I’m guessing he finally watched an episode — Mantegna makes a valiant effort at creating an actual character, but he invariably gets lost amid the wood (his supporting... read more
24, Cold Case and Others Burned by Wildfires | Today's News: Our Take | 10/23/2007
The relentless wildfires ravaging Southern California have forced the evacuation of some 250,000 residents as well as singed the productions of several TV series. According to the Reporter, 24 had to rejigger a plan to film Kiefer Sutherland at the Marine Corps Air Station El Toro when cast and crew became overwhelmed by drifting smoke. (This truly is not Jack Bauer's best day.) Similarly, Cold Case had to rethink a location shoot when strong winds blew over a set, and ABC's Big Shots scrapped... read more
Ask Matt | 10/5/2007
In previous years, whenever CBS aired a late-afternoon football game, it pushed the Sunday night lineup back, sometimes as much as a full hour, so they could air every show starting with 60 Minutes. But I noticed that on Sept. 30, when there was a late-afternoon football game scheduled, 60 Minutes was scheduled to start at 7:30 pm/ET and run until Cold Case started at 9. My question is, was this something specially scheduled because 60 Minutes did have high-profile stories (a Supreme Court ... read more

Pretty much crumbs here, but CBS sent out a few season-premiere deets for its fall lineup. If your show isn't here, it's because A) it's new, B) you could have written the supervague preview yourself and/or C) it's a sitcom that thrives independent of its story arcs.Cold Case: Several weeks after being shot, Lilly returns to work and tries to convince Stillman and herself that she's emotionally ready for work.Shark: Jessica helps Sebastian with a double homicide case, enlisting added firepower... read more
CSI's Grissom-Sara Story Is Ending, Says Exec | Today's News: Our Take | 7/23/2007
A ray of hope for CSI fans who are turned off by that whole... romance thingy... between William Petersen and Jorja Fox's characters. "The Sara-Grissom story line is going to conclude," Jonathan Littman, an executive producer for Jerry Bruckheimer's production house, tells the Orlando Sentinel. "Don't take it in that definitive term," he adds. "It's very smartly done." Littman also teases "a big story-line finish at the start of the season," one that will play out for a few episodes.Other... read more
CBS to Text-message Viewers About Late Start Times | TV Guide News Report | 7/19/2007
Did you ever imagine that life would become so complicated you’d need a text message to tell you whether Cold Case was going to start on time? CBS has. The network announced it will launch a service that will alert viewers when a prime-time show is delayed due to sports or news coverage. The problem occurs most frequently during the NFL season, when late games delay the start times of Sunday shows. This fall, once an NFL game runs beyond 7 pm/ET, viewers will get a "CBS Eye-lert"... read more
CBS: Some Things Old, Something New | Roush Dispatch | 5/16/2007
In years past, CBS's stability (which you've gotta know the other networks covet) has often been criticized as complacency, especially in these last few years of wall-to-wall crime dramas. Zzzzzz. That's about to change, with a fall lineup of new, intriguing high concepts that could open some eyes where the Eye net is concerned and give CBS the one thing it most desperately desires: Buzz. Let's hope some of the new stuff sticks.There is reason to be skeptical. The few shows from last season... read more
