CBS has added one comedy and one drama to its fall TV lineup, with series orders for “Smallwood” and “Good Sam.”
“Smallwood,” based on the real-life story of professional bowler Tom Smallwood, stars Pete Holmes, Chi McBride and Katie Lowes. Mark Gross is executive producing and writing, with David Hollander and Brian D’Arcy James also exec producing and Mark Cendrowski directing. The comedy follows a seemingly ordinary man who, after being laid off from his assembly line job at the Gm factory, decides to provide for his family by pursuing his dream of becoming a pro bowler.
“Good Sam,” meanwhile, stars Sophia Bush, Jason Isaacs, Edwin Hodge, Skye P. Marshall, Michael Stahl-David, Davi Santos, Omar Maskati and Wendy Crewson. Katie Welch is executive producing and writing, with Jennie Snyder Urman also serving as exec producer and Joanna Klein exec producing for Sutton St. Productions. Tamra Davis is exec producing and directing the pilot.
