CBS - May only order 4 Series for 2017-2018 + Update on TBBT/Spinoff

Thanks to Alex P for the head up.

Leslie Moonves has given a big vote of confidence to the freshman shows on CBS’ lineup and the spinoff of “The Big Bang Theory” in the works.

The CBS chairman-CEO predicted that CBS will return five or six of the new series introduced this season during his Tuesday morning Q&A at the Deutsche Bank Media and Telecom conference in Palm Beach, Fla. He hailed the CBS programming team’s “extraordinary batting average.”

Out of the 17 pilots ordered for next season, Moonves predicted the Eye will pickup four new series — two comedies and two dramas — although he emphasized that could change depending on how the completed pilots come in.

Moonves didn’t cite specific titles other than to give a thumbs-up to the “Big Bang” spinoff he called “Little Sheldon.” The Warner Bros. TV comedy revolves around the childhood of the “Big Bang Theory” character Sheldon Cooper, played by Jim Parsons.
