CBS has made decisions on its two comedy pilots this year, with the network picking up the single-cam laffer “Eternally Yours” to series for the 2026-2027 broadcast season. “The Tillbrooks” (fka “Regency”) is not moving forward.
The news comes less than a week ahead of CBS 2026-2027 fall schedule announcement, which is set for April 15. With the series pickup for “Eternally Yours,” there are no more pending scripted series decisions on the CBS slate. The Eye Network renewed most of its primetime shows weeks ago, although freshman comedy “DMV” and sophomore drama “Watson” were recently canceled. In addition, long-running comedy “The Neighborhood” is currently airing its final season.
“Eternally Yours” hails from writers and executive producers Joe Port and Joe Wiseman, who developed the American version of “Ghosts” for CBS. That ensemble comedy, about a couple that inherits a mansion filled with ghosts from different periods in history, has proven to be a hit for CBS and is currently airing its fifth season. It was already renewed through Season 6 last year. Don’t be surprised if CBS pairs the two shows in the fall, given the supernatural comedy connection and behind-the-scenes talent they share.
The logline for “Eternally Yours” states that it is “centered around Charles (Ed Weeks) and Liz (Allegra Edwards) – a vampire couple whose once-passionate romance has devolved into a pulseless marriage after 500 years together. Living in present-day Seattle with their oddball coven, they’ve settled into an eternal rut—until their daughter’s (Helen J. Shen) earnest human boyfriend (Parker Young) unexpectedly enters their lives and forces them to confront whether their love can survive forever… or if forever is a life sentence.”
Along with Port and Wiseman, Eric Tannenbaum, Kim Tannenbaum, and Jason Wang serve as executive producers. The pilot was executive produced by Trent O’Donnell, who also directed. CBS Studios will produce.
“The Tillbrooks” was described as “a historical spin on the classic multi-cam family sitcom, centered around the upper-middle class Tillbrooks as they navigate life, love, and scandal in 19th Century England.” Rhys Darby starred as family patriarch Arthur Tillbrook, while the cast also included Mia Challis, Hayley Griffith, and Shiv Pai. Tara Hernandez was the writer and executive producer. Warner Bros. Television was the studio.
