CBS returns to crime, comedy roots


May 14, 2008 Crime and comedy are coming back in full force to CBS' schedule next season as the network re-embraces the genres that have performed best for it in recent years. After taking a creative detour in the fall with outside-the-box concepts such as singing gamblers and vampire detectives, CBS is adding new crime procedurals and opening up another night of comedy. "The New Adventures of Old Christine," which the network renewed at the last minute on Tuesday, will launch the block.
