BREAKING UPFRONTS NEWS: CBS Announces Schedule, Moves 'Trace,' 'Case' and 'Race'


It's the third day of the network upfronts, and that means it's CBS' turn to play the scheduling game. Since it's the number 1 network, you weren't expecting many changes, right? Wrong! Gone is the weekly CBS Sunday night movie, and in its place, shifted programs. Sunday nights will now feature The Amazing Race at 8, Cold Case at 9 (and pitted up against ABC's uber-successful Desperate Housewives) and Without a Trace at 10 p.m. That's right, CBS is moving Without a Trace to Sunday nights! How will this all shape up? We'll have to wait until September to know for sure. Here's a look at the network's new line-up:
