"FBI" Offshoot "CIA" Pushed to Midseason
Yara Sameh CBS has made some changes to its fall schedule as it announces its new season plans. New 'FBI' spinoff 'CIA,' which had been slated to premiere in the fall, will now be held back for midseason as it undergoes some tinkering. The show, from Dick Wolf, has switched showrunners: Warren Leight ('Law & Order: SVU') will take over from David Hudgins, and has been given additional time to adjust before going into production. Tom Ellis stars in 'CIA,' and the writers room is now up on the show — with casting set to begin soon and production now expected to start in the fall. With 'CIA' pushed back, CBS will now move up Season 2 of 'Watson,' originally slated for midseason, to fall instead. Beyond that, CBS has opted to launch most of its fall sked in October, aiming to take advantage of September events (including, of course, the return of NFL football). Much of its lineup is set to bow the week of October 12, which the Eye has dubbed 'CBS Premiere Week.' That night, CBS will take advantage of an NFL doubleheader to launch the returns of hits 'Matlock' and 'Elsbeth,' on a special night before moving to their regular Thursday slots later that week. And on Friday, October 17, the network will stunt 'Fire Country' at 8 p.m. to launch newbies 'Sheriff Country' and 'Boston Blue.' ('Fire' and 'Sheriff' swap to their normal slots the following week.) CBS' September special fare includes its first-ever airing of MTV's Video Music Awards on September 7, then the 77th Emmy Awards on September 14 and 'A Grammy Salute to Earth, Wind & Fire Live: The 21st Night of September' on September 21.

"Traveling around the globe for a stop in Osaka, Japan, where they will experience a modern-day bullet train in a thriving city and then immerse themselves in a 12,000-year-old tradition, performing with a taiko drum group. They will feel the adrenaline rush of skydiving over Dubai's breathtaking cityscape contrasted with another stop, for the first time on THE AMAZING RACE, in the countryside of Bulgaria, where they will participate in a traditional folk dance. Adding a new city this season, teams will visit the medieval village of Strasbourg, France, which will feel like stepping into a fairytale.
