CBS Remembers Unforgettable

Unforgettable, the psychic drama starring Poppy Montgomery, has been cancelled, right? After all, CBS announced just last month that the rookie show would be cancelled. But hold on, everyone. Don't forget Unforgettable just yet.

Deadline.com reports that CBS is negotiating with Sony Pictures TV, which co-produces the show with CBS, to bring it back for a 13-episode run in the summer of 2013.

The web site reports that Sony has been talking with other networks about picking up the show after CBS cancelled it. But apparently CBS isn't through with the show itself.

It's highly unusual for a major network to bring a show back after cancelling it, particularly when the ink on the cancellation papers are still drying. But in its first season, Unforgettable averaged roughly 12 million viewers, which is a strong showing for a first-year show.

CBS executives said they cancelled Unforgettable because they wanted to replace with it newer programs.

Sounds like CBS forgot the first rule of TV: If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
