Over the past two seasons, since they cancelled "Judging Amy," they've tried six different series in that time slot - "Close to Home," "Threshold," "Love Monkey," "The Amazing Race," "Smith," "3 Lbs" - and for half of the 2006-07 season resorted to showing reruns in the slot. Clearly CBS needed to try something that is radically different from what the other networks have one and reviving a format that worked well for them before - "Cane" is a "Dallas" like show that also reaches out to a Hispanic audience - is what they're going with. 593381@blogcritics.org Tue, 22 May 2007 15:33:08 EDT
