TV NEWS & THOUGHTS
- CBS has announced some of its midseason plans with a big push for unscripted on Wednesday nights. Starting after its post-Super Bowl preview, The World's Best will take over the Wednesday 8pm slot until Survivor returns in late February and World's slides to 9pm (SEAL Team will get bumped to 10pm while Criminal Minds will not get more episodes ordered beyond its 15). When World's ends, the new Million Dollar Mile hosted by Tim Tebow will take the 9pm slot. Finally, the new season of The Amazing Race will premiere on May 22 and take over the Wednesday 8pm slot. CBS also announced a three week run for Big Brother: Celebrity Edition airing multiple nights a week starting Monday, January 21. I like that CBS sees some potential in these new franchises and is giving them an opportunity to succeed instead of making them afterthoughts.

- After announcing unscripted plans on Tuesday, CBS announced comedy plans on Wednesday. New comedy Fam will take over the Murphy Brown slot, Thursdays at 9:30pm starting January 10 while season three of Man with a Plan will replace Happy Together in the Monday 8:30pm slot starting February 4. Neither Murphy or Happy have been officially cancelled, but prospects don't look good for either show. Still TBA is a start date and time for season four of Life in Pieces.

- ABC announced that The Goldbergs spinoff Schooled will take over the Wednesday 8:30pm slot starting January 10. This will bump American Housewife, which will go on a short break and then take over the Tuesday 8pm slot from The Conners starting February 5. The Conners, which was only ever planned for an 11 episode first season, will end on January 22. I understand Schooled following The Goldbergs but launching the Tuesday lineup is a tall order for American Housewife.
