CBS Pulls Living Biblically; First Wives Club Comedy Series Coming to Paramount Network
Beginning tonight (Monday, April 23) at 9:30 PM, ET/PT, The Big Bang Theory repeats will replace Living Biblically, which will return to the schedule at a later date. That probably means a Saturday run in the summer or only on CBS.com. The sitcom stars Jay R. Ferguson as Chip Curry, a modern-day man at a crossroads in his life who decides to live strictly in accordance with the Bible. As he begins his sincere spiritual journey toward a more moral life with the help of his wife and friends, Chip wonders if he'll be able to take a page - or every page - out of the Good Book, and if the effect will be of Biblical proportions. Lindsey Kraft, Ian Gomez, David Krumholtz, Tony Rock and Camryn Manheim also star. In other notes, an encore broadcast of Young Sheldon will replace the previously scheduled rebroadcast of Mom tonight (Monday, April 23) at 9:00 PM, ET/PT. The schedule beginning April 30 will be the following:
Mondays, Beginning Monday, April 30
8:00 PM ET/PT Kevin Can Wait
8:30 PM ET/PT Man with a Plan
9:00 PM ET/PT Superior Donuts
9:30 PM ET/PT The Big Bang Theory (R)
10:00 PM ET/PT Elementary (Season Premiere)
Paramount Network has picked up 10 half-hour episodes of a new comedy series, First Wives Club, from Paramount Television. Tracy Oliver, who penned the blockbuster hit film Girls Trip, is attached to write and serve as Executive Producer. The half-hour series is based on the popular 1996 film from Paramount Pictures, which featured Diane Keaton, Bette Midler and Goldie Hawn. The series, like the film, will be based in New York City. It will follow a group of women who band together after their marriages fall apart, and who find strength in their sisterhood- and of course a little revenge.
Production will begin in New York City this summer and the series will debut on Paramount Network in 2019. A cast announcement will be made in the coming weeks.
