CBS picks up three drama pilots

CBS has given the go-ahead to three drama pilots including a US version of Ny-Lon.

A pilot of the show will be made based on the 2004 Channel 4 series. It is about a relationship between a New York woman and British stockbroker who meet in London.

The network has also approved a pilot of Mythological X which is based on an Israeli format. The main character is told by a psychic she will marry a man she has already dated, so revisits them all.

The third pilot order is for Can Openers, about a young woman and her friends who are trainee neurosurgeons.

Earlier this week CBS confirmed a pilot for another drama, called The Mentalist, while two dramas and two comedies were ordered before the strike.
