Based on: The CBS sitcom set at a news station that ran from 1988 to 1998.
The new premise: The news is very recent, but CBS has ordered it straight to series with a 13-episode order, so it's on the docket for a 2018 launch. Candice Bergen, the titular news anchor, is reprising her role, and original executive producer Diane English is also involved as a writer and EP. There aren't a lot of other details yet, but the CBS announcement says that Brown will return to "a world of cable news, social media, fake news and a very different political and cultural climate."
