The network has maintained its position as the most-watched channel for more than a decade, and made the fewest changes overall for the new season compared to its rivals. Among the new offerings will be a comedy called The Crazy Ones<\/em>, starring Robin Williams<\/strong> and Sarah Michelle Gellar<\/strong>. Even David Letterman made a rare appearance at the CBS upfront presentation to advertisers and the media, reports Deadline.com<\/a>.\r\n\r\nMeyers’ First Guest<\/strong><\/span>\r\n\"Poehler<\/a>\r\n
As reported by Yahoo News<\/a>, soon-to-be host of NBC’s Late Night Seth Meyers<\/strong> has selected actress Amy Poehler<\/strong> to be his first guest when his version of the show launches in February of 2014.\r\n
\r\n
