Today's news that CBS ordered
five more episodes of Eleventh Hour is not a big surprise. A big surprise would have been if the network didn't give the freshman drama a re-order. The Jerry Bruckheimer production has been in the most-favored nation position at CBS -- meaning whatever Jerry wants, he usually gets.
The network enjoys a very fruitful/profitable relationship with the TV/filmmaker. Together, CBS and Jerry share
Cold Case, CSI, CSI: Miami, CSI: NY, Without A Trace and
The Amazing Race. They're thinking of changing the initials CBS to Columbia Bruckheimer System. (Kidding!)

A lot of people would say FOX's
Fringe. A lot of people would say CBS's
The Mentalist (it's also the #1 new show ratings-wise). Some might even say CBS's
Worst Week, though a lot of people wouldn't. It's actually been kind of a blah year for new shows.
The Boston Herald, a newspaper I used to write for many TV seasons ago, says one of the best new shows is actually on The CW, and
it's Privileged. Amy Amatangelo says that
Privileged is "that rare show...that gets better every week." She's even really specific when comparing it to other shows. If you like
Brothers & Sisters you'll like parts of the show, and if you're a fan of
How I Met Your Mother, you'll like other parts of it (the show is about a Yale grad who is hired by a cosmetics millionaire to tutor her kids). She compares it to
Gossip Girl too.
So this go me thinking: what do you think is the best new show of the year? I haven't seen
Privileged yet, so I'd probably have to go with either
The Mentalist or
Fringe. Poll is after the jump.

Last night's second episode of ABC's new drama
Life on Mars, the American version of the British hit, took a
precipitous drop in the ratings. This is really bad news because
Life on Mars may be the best new show of the season, unless you're in love with
The Mentalist, which I am not, or maybe
The Eleventh Hour or
My Own Worst Enemy has tickled your fancy.
What's clear is that ABC is trying to build a solid Thursday with
Grey's Anatomy, Ugly Betty and
Life on Mars, but
Ugly Betty is off to a rocky start,
Grey's isn't the powerhouse it once was, and the pressure is on
Mars to keep
Grey's lead and improve on it.
The show got off to a good start in the premiere, but last night was off 25%. That's not good.

A
CBS press release landed in my inbox today with this earth-shattering news: CBS's fall programming ads (20 total) will be featured exclusively in
People's Sept. 22 issue.
From the release: "In a special arrangement with the magazine, CBS will be the exclusive broadcast advertiser in the issue, on stands Sept. 12." Of course, that's right before the launch of CBS's new fall lineup.
And it sounds like this might be a first. George Schweitzer, president of CBS Marketing Group says, "CBS has long valued its relationship with
People, and we're elated that they worked with us to pull off this first-time strategy to be the sole broadcast advertiser in this well-timed issue." You know, whatever. Blah, blah, blah.
So why should we care? Honestly, I really don't. I just keep thinking,
People? What, they couldn't come up with anything snappier? Like, I dunno ... maybe
Entertainment Weekly?
Vanity Fair? I guess with 43 million readers, they'll reach a lot of people in
People.

The four CBS show panels on Friday involved four of the five new programs the network is rolling out in the fall (there was no panel for
Gary Unmarried, or whatever they're calling it today, because Jay Mohr and his wife Nikki Cox are renewing their vows overseas). While the panels for
The Mentalist, The Ex List, Eleventh Hour, and
Worst Week had their moments, none of them were particularly newsworthy or interesting.
At least Diane Ruggiero, the creator of
The Ex List, was entertaining enough to keep me from jabbing a pen in my arm to keep me awake. In fact, she might have actually convinced me to watch
The Lake House, as long as I have a drink in my hand.

Nothing is exempt from betting, including television shows. According to Horizon Media's annual television report, Fox's new show
Fringe and CBS' sci-fi drama
Eleventh Hour will fare best of the new wave of freshman television shows. Doing worst would be NBC's
Kath & Kim and CBS'
Worst Week.
The report produced some unsurprising claims, such as that
Grey's Anatomy,
Heroes and
Survivor will continue to kick butt in the ratings. The report did produce some surprises such as ABC overthrowing CBS on Friday nights and the Fox sitcom
Do Not Disturb finding success. I guess we'll have to wait until the fall season to see how correct the report is.
What irks me is that after combing through the article I found no mention of Joss Whedon's
Dollhouse. Did they forget to review that one? Is this a sign of things to come that Horizon Media didn't even find the show important enough to rank?
