CBS Announces Winter/Spring 2022 Premiere Dates for New and Returning Scripted, Alternative and Specials Programming
CBS today announced premiere dates for new and returning midseason CBS Original programming, including the new drama GOOD SAM and fan favorites THE AMAZING RACE, UNDERCOVER BOSS, CELEBRITY BIG BROTHER and SURVIVOR.
“CBS is having an exceptional fall, with the top new comedy and the top two new dramas. All our freshman series are resonating with viewers, and key scheduling moves are improving and strengthening nights,” said Kelly Kahl, President, CBS Entertainment. “We’re up significantly over last fall and look forward to keeping the momentum going in the second half of the season, with a robust mix of programming including scripted, alternative and specials.”
Good Sam
GOOD SAM, starring Sophia Bush and Jason Isaacs, premieres Wednesday, Jan. 5 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT), after CSI: VEGAS completes its planned 10-episode first season. GOOD SAM is about Dr. Sam Griffith (Sophia Bush), a gifted heart surgeon who excels in her new leadership role as chief of surgery after her renowned boss, Dr. Rob “Griff” Griffith (Isaacs), falls into a coma. When Dr. Griffith wakes up months later, demanding to resume his duties, Sam is tasked with supervising this egotistical expert with a scalpel who never acknowledged her stellar talent. Complicating matters, this caustic and arrogant boss also happens to be her father. As Griff defies Sam’s authority and challenges her medical expertise, the big question becomes whether this father and daughter will ever be able to mend their own relationship as expertly as they heal the hearts of their patients.
