CBS has announced its fall schedule with only a few minor shake-ups. The biggest shake-up comes from 'Medium.' Earlier in the week, NBC decided to pass on the Emmy winning series, which ran for five seasons on the network. But now, the show has found a new home on CBS, where it will air Friday nights at 9PM after 'Ghost Whisperer.' What psychic could have predicted that?
Also moving around is 'The Mentalist,' which is now scheduled to air Thursadys at 10PM after 'CSI.'
Meanwhile, 'How I Met Your Mother,' 'The New Adventures of Old Christine' and 'Numb3rs' have all received renewal orders.
In other news, the CW has picked up three new drama series, including the 'Melrose Place' reboot starring Ashlee Simpson.

You'd think the networks will realize sooner or later that most people who watch TV now are wanting basic feel good shows, such as The Unit, Jerico, Friday Night Lights, Medium, etc. Some wayout executives are making decisions that are shooting all the networks in the foot. We're all tired of Hollywood telling us what we should like.

I can't believe The Unit is not coming back! They take the best shows off and leave all the crappy reality shows. Same when Shark was taken off!

They need to bring back Las Vegas from NBC. Very good show with James Caan. It would bring alot of people back to tv

I totally agree... The Unit was one of the most original shows out there. Take a look at Fox's 24, the Unit was far better. Ever since they moved it from the Tuesday time slot, ratings have dropped. LISTEN TO THE VIEWERS, put the Unit back on where it should be, after NCIS!!!!!!

If the show is good the networks will pull it.
That's why I don't watch much T.V.
Luckly there's Net-flicks!
The networks are morons!
