- Kid Nation – reality series centering on 40 kids, age 8-15, who are given 40 days to build Bonanza City, New Mexico out of a 19th century ghost town.

- Power of 10 – new summer reality series hosted by Drew Carey that will challenge contestants to guess the outcome of polls taken by thousands of Americans across the nation.

Produced by Embassy Row in association with Sony Pictures Television.
- Swingtown – mid-season series that takes viewers back to the sexual and social revolution of the 1970s. The Millers move into a new suburb outside of Chicago and are surprised to meet their swinging new neighbors. From CBS Paramount Network Television.
Next Upfront Update – The CW and FOX are the final two upfront presenters today. The early word from The CW is reality will lead. The network will bring back both Beauty and the Geek and America’s Next Top Model as lead-ins for new scripted projects. Other returning scripted shows include Supernatural and Smallville, along with the sitcoms Everybody Hates Chris, Girlfriends, The Game and of course wrestling.
