It's not hype -- Happy Endings pickup talks are real at USA. May not be in time for tomorrow's upfront but they are proceeding...

 Re: Upfronts 2013
Person of Interest moving to Tuesday @ 10 is what I suggested last year so I approve of the time slot change.
Lots of interesting shows to check out unlike last season.

 Re: Upfronts 2013
After watching the CBS trailers, The Crazy Ones is probably going to be a BIG ratings hit. I could definitely see the show getting 4+ demos, at least, in the first season. Looks the best out of the new crop.
Mom looks pretty good as well as Faris looks to have her charm in tact.
The Millers should also do well I think, though I feel it may not be a very sharp comedy show.
We are Men will be CBS' first cancellation of next season.
Hostages looks pretty interesting though I wonder how long the concept can remain intriguing.
Intelligence looks alright though I feel Holloway might be a miscast here which is a shame.

Looks the best out of the new crop.. It certainly seems like CBS has confidence in it, giving it the 9 pm anchor position on Thursdays. I just hope it meets expectations creatively.

 Re: Upfronts 2013
Interesting that they're gonna have The Originals start a night and moving Supernatural. Welp, hopes it works out! And Carrie Diaries on Friday sounds like a disaster.

It was basically renewed because of its strong online audience on Hulu, etc. I doubt they are expecting much from it in terms of ratings. It kind of makes sense pairing it with "Top Model" too. Every network really seems intent on making Friday night TV worth watching this fall.

 Re: Upfronts 2013
The Carrie Diaries is one of their best shows. My favorite personally. I think it's a mistake dumping it to Friday nights, especially expecting it to anchor the night again. Would have went great airing after Hart of Dixie.

 Re: Upfronts 2013
"Hart Of Dixie" is one of their few somewhat stable shows, so I understand moving it to Monday. I'm sure its audience will follow it there.

 Re: Upfronts 2013
After watching the previews, The Tomorrow People looks really good both in concept and the effects (particularly for CW standards). Could be a hit in a similar way to Arrow next year if not a little bigger.
The Originals looks pretty good as well, if not just a darker Vampire Diaries.
The 100 could be alright though the clip made available doesn't really give much to go off of.
Star-Crossed and Reign look very meh.

 Re: Upfronts 2013
Apparently a pick-up of Happy Endings by USA seems unlikely: http://www.deadline.com/2013/05/latest- ... ch-at-usa/I hope that ends up being wrong.

 Re: Upfronts 2013
I would honestly prefer it if they just said if it was going or if it was canceled  This back and forth is killing me.

 Re: Upfronts 2013
The Crazy Ones looks better than I expected. It actually looks pretty good. Different than other CBS sitcoms.

 Re: Upfronts 2013
YES!!!!!!!!
SO excited and happy for Ari Graynor. I love her so much and am glad this will expose her to a wider audience. I also really liked the script.

I'm excited about the pick-up as well, but I really hope it doesn't end up getting the shaft by CBS in the end. They have this on tap for mid-season, but also the return of Mike & Molly and the new series Friends with Better Lives.

 Re: Upfronts 2013
Interesting. CBS went really comedy crazy this upcoming season. They only picked up two comedies last year: one of them (Partners) was axed almost immediately and the other (Friend Me) won't see the light of day.

 Re: Upfronts 2013
I think "Friend Me" mostly got screwed because its creator committed suicide during production.
