1. CBS unveils post-strike TV season plans

CBS on Monday announced February premiere dates for a shortened, three-and-a-half-month TV season following the resolution of writers and actors strikes. The schedule, the first glimpse of how the networks plan to rebound from the work stoppages, is scheduled to start after CBS's Feb. 11 Super Bowl telecast. The premiere of the new drama "Tracker" will get things started, followed by new episodes of popular shows like "Young Sheldon" during the week of Feb. 12. Most of the network's series, including the "NCIS" and "FBI" franchises, will start the same week. The announcement came five days after actors' union SAG-AFTRA ended its strike. The writers returned to work in late September. Variety, Deadline
