With the network upfront presentations approaching soon, here is the latest pilot buzz update from THR:

CBS: “Hawaii Five-O” remains the most likely drama to receive a series order. Brett Ratner’s CIA drama “Chaos” and legal drama “Defenders” with Jim Belushi and Jerry O’Connell are considered top contenders. Nobody seems to like the “Criminal Minds” spinoff, yet most believe the drama will get picked up for midseason anyway. Among comedies, “Bleep My Dad Says” (aka “Shit My Dad Says”) seems to be an easy bet with William Shatner in the title role. Executives are said to like “HIMYM” creators’ Carter Bays and Craig Thomas’ “Livin’ on a Prayer.” Multicamera comedies “True Love” and Chuck Lorre’s “Mike and Molly” have mixed reviews, but one can’t ever count out Lorre at CBS.

Hopefully the show gets picked up. We’ll know for sure on May 19th, unless CBS announces it early.
