AceShowbiz - After NBC, ABC and FOX, it's now CBS' turn to unveil its fall 2015 line-up. Still following last year's pattern, "The Big Bang Theory" and new comedy "Life in Pieces" will open on Monday because of NFL but they will shift to Thursdays in November.
"Supergirl" will take over the Monday, 8 P.M. slot, while returning comedy "Mom" is also moved to Thursdays beginning in November. Thus, on Mondays, CBS will have a full-drama line-up.
Another new series, "Limitless", is slated for Tuesdays at 10 P.M., after veteran dramas "NCIS: Naval Criminal Investigative Service" and "NCIS: Los Angeles". Medical drama "Code Black" is added to the Wednesday line-up, while one-hour comedy "Angel From Hell" starring Jane Lynch will air on Thursdays at 9 P.M. after "Mom".
CBS has additionally announced that long-running crime drama series "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" will end with a two-hour finale on September 27 with original stars William Petersen and Marg Helgenberger returning.
Along with the schedule, trailers for these five new series are made available online. The 6-minute trailer for "Supergirl" includes a glimpse of Kara's backstory, her life as a regular employee, and how her superhuman abilities are exposed to the world.
The "Limitless" trailer, meanwhile, features Bradley Cooper who reprises his role as Eddie Morra from the original movie. He, however, takes a recurring role since the series is toplined by Jake McDorman, with Jennifer Carpenter, Hill Harper and Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio co-starring.
