--Scott Collins of the Los Angeles Times has reported that CBS is talking with UFC about producing one or more prime time network specials. The writers strike is making the talks more serious, because the network would be in need of first-run unscripted prime time programming when the shows on the schedule run out of fresh episodes. www.wrestlingobserver.com/wo/news/headlines/default.asp?aID=21259 |

I would not be surprised to see them do a series with the fighters "behind the scenes", showing two opponents training, preparing right before the fight, then their reactions after the fight to 'humanize' the sport.

I only watch CBS for "How I Met Your Mother," "The New Adventures Of Old Christine," and "Late Show With David Letterman" and with the writer's strike, and now this, looks like I won't be watching CBS anytime soon!
(Good for them if it's true though)
