‘Password,’ ‘American Dog’ Slotted For CBS Summer

Reality fare, a game show revival, mixed martial arts and two scripted drama premieres dot CBS’ summer schedule, announced today.

In the reality genre, the 10th season of “Big Brother” is gearing up for a July 13 premiere, while “Greatest American Dog” and “Jingles” are new entries for CBS. “Dog” has owners and pets living together and competing to crown America’s top dog. “Jingles,” from executive producer Mark Burnett, has contestants writing commercial jingles that will be graded by a panel of judges and the American public.

Regis Philbin returns to prime-time hosting duties, taking the helm of “Million Dollar Password,” an update of the classic game show that has contestants teaming with celebrities to guess the secret password.

In the drama department, “Swingtown” and “Flashpoint” are premiering. “Swingtown” covers the sexual and social revolution in the 1970s, while “Flashpoint” follows cops in the SRU, a task force that tries to diffuse emergency situations.

Programming departures for CBS include two scheduled mixed martial arts specials in May and July. Other specials for the summer include the 62nd Tony Awards, and the AFI’s 10 Top 10, a countdown show that lists the top 10 films from 10 genres.

There are certainly a lot of details like that to take into consideration. That is a great point to bring up. I offer the thoughts above as general inspiration but clearly there are questions like the one you bring up where the most important thing will be working in honest good faith. I don?t know if best practices have emerged around things like that.
