There were constant reminders this past week, when major entertainment companies hawked their wares to advertisers in Manhattan presentations, of the diminished role of broadcast networks.

Network TV’s fondness for reality fare and reboots combine in “The Real Love Boat,” a sea-going dating show that’s part of the CBS fall schedule announced Wednesday.

At first glance, broadcast newcomers “Ghosts” and “The Wonder Years” have barely had a chance to prove themselves in the ratings.

CBS is reviving its hit “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation” brand with a series that brings original cast members William Petersen and Jorja Fox back home.

The Equalizer, a 1980s drama reboot starring Queen Latifah, and the comedy B Positive with Thomas Middleditch are CBS' fall newcomers. The network's schedule, as with those of other outlets, is dependent on when the two-month TV and movie production halt to contain the coronavirus ends or at least eases. CBS isn't ignoring that reality but hopes to see taping resume sometime this summer, said Kelly Kahl, president of CBS Entertainment. We are optimistic we're going to have our shows on in the fall. We have five returning strong freshman shows, and that wasn't going to leave a ton of room for new shows," Kahl said.

CBS is recoupling with Love Island. According to Kahl, CBS may look at a scheduling tweak for Love Island, which is broadcast five nights a week in the U.S., for the next season. The audience is learning how to play along with the show.Ratings have been modest for the inaugural season of Love Island in the U.S. Episodes will air Fridays at 9 a.m. PT on ETonline, ET Live and the ET YouTube channel. Love Island airs weeknights at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS, with the live finale on Wednesday, Aug. 7.
