They were always so good in the past with publishing ML questions, perhaps they can shed some light, let us know if there are any rumblings about Alex concerning the May upfront presentations.
Now THAT'S my kick-@$$ sister!!!

Another thing to add to the "things to do list" for tomorrow.
Husband will be out of town, kids at school.
Mama taking care of ML business.

Good to know you have your priorities right...
If you watch MB, you must report back in...
Maybe we will decide to create a pilot for CBS based on an historical drama instead... Michael Phelps got popped with another DUI, so maybe our swimming crime-fighter suffers from bad timing...

...or good timing, it's all about the buzz, doesn't mean that it has to be good buzz!

That theory seems to mostly work for Britney Spears...
Talk about a vampire... every time you think she's dead...
And CBS seemed to have had a hand in her latest resurrection... yeah, go for
quality CBS... while Alex waits in the wings...
But if you're set on the swimmer, let's give it a go... maybe we can Michael as a guest star in the pilot... stunt casting!

You know I'm going to be so gutted if I don't see this show sometime in the future. CBS would be silly to pass the Alex swimmer crime-fighter show up

Audience of one???? Alex in a speedo. Alex in sparkly, unbuttoned henleys. Are you kidding? We'd all be there, any network, any time, first run, re-runs!
Our only problem is that we know none of us are Nielsen families. We have to find out who those people are and infiltrate their territory.

jmc has a point
Fleur... We need a PI, or a nosy reporter, to ferret out this Nielsen business... or both.
I'm gonna look in the phone book...

I hear there's a really good one on Drexel Ave in L. A.
Perhaps a face-to-face is in order?

As posted by MoonMad at VLF:
Okay, sad news Alex fans. Lisa from the Aussieslovemoonlight site has heard from Alex's Aussie agent Nathan who has told her that the Simon Mirren project is off the table. (Boo hoo!) Alex is still considering other ideas with CBS. So it appears these pilots aren't connected with Simon Mirren after all.
I know we had our fears, so this isn't too shattering (is it?)
I'm crossing my fingers now that Alex will like something else that CBS offers him.
Boo hoo indeed.

P. S. As most of the discussion on this thread relates to how this affects Alex, I am moving this topic to the Alex forum.

Yet again we have to fall back on our usual coping mechanism - hope for the best, expect the worst.
Just for once, it would be nice to get some good news.
