Yesterday, CBS sent out a press release of the CBS Winter Schedule lineup and among the winter lineup is the first ever winter edition of Big Brother (9), a new season of Survivor (16) and Jericho.
What a lineup, it's been rumored for the last couple of months that with the writer's strike is going on, CBS might create the first ever winter edition of Big Brother. Keep in mind, CBS can do this because one, CBS holds casting calls all year long and two, they own the house. With that, its been rumored as a three week or so celebrity version with limited feed, hopefully (Big Brother 9) this is a full three month season with a full cast of new charactors and not only the full online feed, but a three+ hour a night of feed on Showtime 2.
I was surprised to Survivor 16 on this list considering Suvivor China has not even had there finale yet. I've been watching Survivor China and it's good. It has been rumored that Survivor 16 with take place on the island of Palau for the second time in Survivor history and that it might be an All-Star cast, everything is yet to be confirmed by CBS.
However, its no surprise that Jericho has returned to the schedule considering the fan response after Jericho was originally cancelled months ago. It will be interesting to see who survivored that big gun fight just outside of the town of Jericho, I haven't seen a episode of Jericho in months, time to go online.
From yesterday's CBS press release on the winter schedule: The 16th edition of SURVIVOR premieres Thursday, Feb. 7 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT). Hosted by Jeff Probst.- Racedriven

Heard this rumor at http://www.bb9spoilers.com looks like BS to me
"The season will be called, "HOW THE OTHER HALF LIVES". It will be 6 celebrities (paid a handsome fee for their appearance) and 6 non-celebrities. The celebrities would live in plush surroundings at one end of the house and the
non-celebrities would live in the other end in "basic" surroundings, complete with mechanical rats and roaches. They unwittingly vote each other to move back and forth between the areas until they are merged. Alice Cooper is one of the celebrities under consideration-so is George Michael. 3 nights a week starting Sunday Jan. 13, right after AMAZING RACE finale.
I hope that isn't the case at all, I would rather have a regular season like always with a new cast of non-celebrities charactors living together in the house and the edition runs for the entire three months as normal (Beginning of February to the middle-end of April.)
