New CBS entertainment chief vows more prime-time diversity

While there’s no official Season 8 announcement yet, and CBS typically waits until late spring to announce renewals, Geller confirmed “The Good Wife” could certainly go on without the Kings, who are already hard at work on a different drama series that will air on CBS this summer. “But I can conform that this will be the last season of ‘Mike and Molly‘”. “We haven’t aired the show yet, and I’m not sure”, he said.

‘The network has it’s reasons, and I will not get into a debate, discussion, or campaign to get them to change their minds, ‘ she wrote.

While we want to know more about the blood that was put into the show, we’ll stop the hyper-analysis of Geller’s quote and focus mostly on the sad reality that yet another long-running sitcom on CBS is ending. “But we have a deep bench on the show, some of the writers have been there from the beginning”.

The Good Wife creators/executive producers/showrunners Robert and Michelle King are departing the CBS series after the current seventh season. The CBS show is now in development, and will see the iconic character reimagined in her 30s. Whether or not it is the last season, Gellar told critics the season 5 finale “could function as either [a] season or series finale”. He reminded the Pasadena ballroom that all fall of CBS’ freshman series have been granted a back nine, and that the network was on track to end the season as the most-watched network for the 13th time in 14 years. I think it’s going to be a rough three weeks.

CBS News’ Charlie Rose says that Sean Penn has agreed to talk to him about his interview with Mexican drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman for Rolling Stone magazine.

In the show, which is based on a United Kingdom series, teams of two are hunted by law enforcement professionals and can win $100,000 if they manage to evade their pursuers for 28 days.

The news of a more open take on casting has been greeted with positivity – we don’t need to tell anyone that Hollywood is seriously lacking when it comes to creating prime roles for women of varying ethnicities – and the U.S. network plans to stick with this broad vision.
