The only sci-fi on CBS's lineup this season is Jericho:

Premise: A small town is cut off from the rest of the world after a nuclear disaster.

Stars: Skeet Ulrich ("Into the West," "Miracles"), Gerald McRaney ("Deadwood"), Pamela Reed ("Proof of Life," "Tanner '88"), Ashley Scott ("Birds of Prey"), Kenneth Mitchell ("Odyssey 5"), Sprague Grayden ("John Doe," "Joan of Arcadia"), Lennie James ("Sahara"), Michael Gaston ("Blind Justice"), Erik Knudsen ("Saw II")

One other new show I think might be intriuging, and certainly has star power is Smith:

Premise: A team of career criminals plans and executes elaborate, high-stakes heists, while its leader tries to keep up appearances of a normal life.

Stars: Ray Liotta ("Narc," "Goodfellas"), Virginia Madsen ("Sideways"), Amy Smart ("Starsky & Hutch," "Felicity"), Simon Baker ("The Guardian"), Jonny Lee Miller ("Aeon Flux"), Franky G ("Jonny Zero," "The Italian Job")

That second one sounds like the premise for Hustle... and that's not a very good show.

"We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days,
Through the fire and the flames we carry on"

These would make good movies (or maybe not)but not good shows...unless it's a 4 hour event or something.

I'm happy to see Sprague Grayden getting more work. He was part of the ensemble cast on John Doe which made it watchable (the star of the show wasn't, not so much), and then he had a few episodes as God on Joan of Arcadia. Never saw a show tank so fast, after so much promise, until Commander in Chief.
