Are you ready to celebrate, Grey's Anatomy Fanatics?
We have some exciting news about one of the show's most familiar faces, and truthfully, it's something we thought would have happened years ago.
People magazine has crowned Patrick Dempsey as the Sexiest Man Alive this year, and we're very excited about it.
Dempsey made hearts race for 11 seasons of Grey's Anatomy in the role of Derek Shepherd, starring opposite Ellen Pompeo.
The well-known actor and race car driver succeeds 2022 recipient Chris Evans.
"I'm glad it's happening at this point in my life," the 57-year-old actor told the magazine about securing the honor.
"It's nice to have the recognition, and certainly my ego takes a little bump, but it gives me the platform to use it for something positive."

All Rise will not be returning to CBS for a third season.
CBS has canceled the Simone Missick-fronted legal drama. It comes after a number of behind issues on the show including the departure of creator and showrunner Greg Spottiswood.
It is one of two cancelations announced by the Eye today after The Unicorn was also axed. It follows a busy 24 hours for the network, ahead of its upfronts next week, which saw it plan to move Seal Team and Clarice to Paramount+ for its upcoming seasons, pick up Sophia Bush pilot Good Sam and Pete Holmes comedy Smallwood to series and pass on pilots Ways & Means starring Patrick Dempsey, the Sarah Cooper/Cindy Chupack comedy and Welcome to Georgia.

CBS today made its new series pickups, going for one drama,Good Sam, headlined by Sophia Bush, and one comedy, the multi-camera Smallwood starring Pete Holmes.
The network also passed on political drama Ways & Means, starring Patrick Dempsey, the untitled Sarah Cooper/Cindy Chupack single-camera comedy, as well as comedy pilot Welcome To Georgia, starring Hannah Simone and Elizabeth Hurley. Both Ways & Means and Welcome To Georgia were from the previous pilot season.
Dempsey plays a powerful congressional leader in Ways & Means, which was ordered to pilot in the early stages of the 2020 primaries when politics was very much on everybody’s mind. Fifteen months later, after a grueling Presidential campaign and two impeachment trials amid a pandemic, there appears to be some political fatigue, which likely impacted the project’s prospects, along with its ability to sell internationally.

Medical drama Good Sam, starring Sophia Bush, and bowling comedy Smallwood fronted by Pete Holmes have been picked up to series by CBS.
The pick-ups come ahead of CBS’ upfronts on Wednesday and follow a busy day of pick-ups, renewals and cancellations at ABC and NBC.
Good Sam and Smallwood are expected to be for fall, as per traditional CBS practice, but that has yet to be confirmed.
However, they won’t be joined on the schedule by CBS’ other three pilots; political drama Ways & Means, starring Patrick Dempsey, the Sarah Cooper/ Cindy Chupack single-camera comedy and Welcome To Georgia, starring Hannah Simone and Elizabeth Hurley, have all been passed on.
Both Good Sam and Smallwood were seen as frontrunners in their genre with Good Sam considered a solid medical drama for the network that has been looking for a curative franchise, and pro bowling comedy Smallwood was getting...

As we head into the first broadcast upfront presentations on Monday, the two networks that are going up first, NBC and Fox, have made the decisions on their outstanding pilots. This leaves ABC and CBS, which also are presenting next week, as well as the CW, which has some leeway as it is not unveiling its fall 2021 schedule until the week after. Things have never been murkier so close to showtime but here is what I have heard since publishing the initial 2021 Pilot Buzz last week.
No major changes at the front of the ABC echelon, with The Wonder Years reboot, from Saladin Patterson, the original series’ Fred Savage and Lee Daniels, and drama Queens, headlined by Brandy, Eve, Naturi Naughton, Nadine Velazquez and Pepi Sonuga, staying hot through the screenings and still looking good.
Comedy pilot Maggie lived up to the “dark horse” moniker I gave it in the original handicap.

It’s the first week of May, which is normally when Deadline does its final handicapping of the new crop of broadcast pilots’ pickup changes. As the TV industry — and the country — are starting to see the first signs of a return to normalcy, the broadcast networks are gearing up for the upfronts, in their usual timeframe just two weeks away. However, the pilot evaluation process is anything but conventional this year after the 2020 pilot cycle was delayed by the pandemic, so we see 2020 pilots being screened alongside 2021 ones and pilot-to-series orders being handed out alongside straight-to-series pickups and off-cycle pilot green lights.
It is risky trying to make any predictions this year, but, keeping up a Deadline tradition, here is what I hear is going on at the five broadcast networks.
ABC, which had a top executive change mid-development cycle, with Hulu’s Craig Erwich taking over programming, has...

CBS is one of the networks that believes in the traditional pilot season – Kelly Kahl is a noted fan of the process. But the Covid-19 pandemic forced it to pivot and hand out a handful of straight-to-series orders for the 2020-21 season including The Equalizer, starring Queen Latifah, and Silence of the Lambs sequel Clarice.
As this year’s development season continues to be interrupted by the pandemic, the network is considering doing the same again.
Thom Sherman, Senior EVP Programming, CBS Entertainment, said Wednesday at CBS’ virtual press tour: “We learned a lot this past year: how to adapt and look at things differently and break the whole model. We might even order some projects straight to series like we did with The Equalizer and Clarice.”
Development projects in the works at CBS this year include drama Antarctica from The Boys’ Paul Grellong, Josh Berman and Sony Pictures TV,...

It is January, which marks the start of the broadcast pilot season when networks begin to pick up their crop of pilots for next season. Not this year. In January 2021, most broadcast networks are still getting ready to film some of their 2020 pilots and the country is going through a deadly Covid-19 surge, with California as the epicenter.
The coronavirus pandemic blew up the 2020 pilot season by grounding almost all pilots just as they were heading into production. The shakeup led to nets embracing straight-to-series orders in a bigger way, relying on extra backup scripts to make their decisions. Fox, which already had started a transition to year-round development, over the summer adjusted its approach to development and will be commissioning a mix of traditional pilots, lower-cost presentations, writers rooms as well as outright straight-to-series orders going forward. ABC also has stepped up its plans to move development to off-cycle...

Exclusive: WME talent agent Arielle Mesirow has joined Nina Tassler and Denise Di Novi’s CBS Studios-based production company, PatMa Productions, as Vice President, Comedy. In her new role, Mesirow will shepherd development of projects that fit PatMa’s strategy for producing premium comedy content. As part of PatMa’s partnership with CBS Studios, ViacomCBS platforms have a first look at all projects developed by the production company. In addition to Tassler and Di Novi, at PatMa Mesirow joins President Joan Boorstein.
The hire comes on the heels of PatMa’s high-profile comedy sale of How to Be Successful Without Hurting Men’s Feelings, inspired by TikTok star Sarah Cooper’s book, to CBS.

ABC, CBS, NBC & Fox Extend Pilot Cast Options; ‘Jury Duty’ Releases Actors But Remains In Contention
Back in May and June, the broadcast networks made decisions on their pilots that had been grounded by the coronavirus pandemic. Some projects went straight to series, some pilots were rolled, some were passed on, and the rest got commitments to film in 2020 when safety conditions allow. Because pilot cast options traditionally expire on June 30, the options on the actors from pilots earmarked for production were extended through September 30.
Three months later, only one pilot from that list has been shot, as far as I know: NBC’s comedy Night School. The networks were faced with the same dilemma and, overwhelmingly, asked the studios to extend the options on the pilots. I hear the length of the extensions vary project by project, with most actors secured through June 2021, and some pilots going for a hold through December 2020.
The only pilot whose cast was not extended further is CBS comedy Jury Duty,...

Exclusive: In a competitive situation, CBS has given a script commitment with penalty to How To Be Successful Without Hurting Men’s Feelings, a single-camera comedy inspired by TikTok star Sarah Cooper’s bestselling book of the same name. The project hails from Cooper, Cindy Chupack (Sex and the City), Nina Tassler and Denise Di Novi’s PatMa Productions and CBS Television Studios.
Thanks to her breakout online video lip-sync impressions of President Donald Trump, Cooper has emerged as the “it” comedy talent of the moment. She just set her first comedy special at Netflix, which is slated to premiere this fall.
Co-written by Cooper and Chupack, How To Be Successful Without Hurting Men’s Feelings revolves around three women at different stages in their careers at a male-dominated company who help each other navigate modern gender politics in their careers and in their personal lives.

A month ago, several TV studios, including Disney TV Studios, Warner Bros. TV and Universal TV, started to pay actors on broadcast pilots, which could not be produced because of the coronavirus pandemic. CBS TV Studios in the past couple of weeks also initiated compensation for most of the series regulars on the studio’s pilots, with several deals still in negotiations, I have learned.
I hear the formula used by CBS TV Studios involves actors receiving 50% of their pilot fees now as part of an agreement to extend their options through Sept. 30. If the pilots are not produced by then, the studio would pay the remaining 50% to hold the casts through Dec. 30, with actors entitled to another payment representing 50% of the pilot if a further extension is needed.
The template is similar to the one used by Disney TV Studios and Universal TV as all major TV studios have...

After deciding to escape the violence with her children, Susan suspiciously vanishes without explanation, without her children, in 2009 and remains missing to this day.
Her husband, who had been named a person of interest but never charged, subsequently killed himself and their young sons in a murder-suicide amid a custody dispute with Sudan’s parents.

How is this for tragic irony? For decades, network executives have been trying to break out of the traditional development cycle with little success. It may take a cataclysmic event like the current global coronavirus pandemic to finally do that.
The fast-spreading outbreak has shut down or postponed production on about 50 scripted series across broadcast and streaming; ultimately, all shows are expected to grind to a halt, and some will end up delivering shorter seasons.

Pretty Little Liars alumna Troian Bellisario is set as the female lead opposite Patrick Dempsey in CBS’ Ways & Means. Phil Abraham has come on board to direct the political drama pilot from former Seal Team showrunner Ed Redlich, Republican political consultant Mike Murphy, Nina Tassler and Denise Di Novi’s PatMa Productions and CBS TV Studios.
Written by Murphy and Redlich, Ways & Means centers on a powerful congressional leader (Dempsey) who has lost faith in politics. He finds himself working secretly with an idealistic young congresswoman (Bellisario) from the opposing party to subvert the hopelessly gridlocked system he helped create. Together, they’ll attempt to save American politics — if they don’t get caught.
