Trailers for CBS’s new shows including Extant, Madam Secretary, Stalker, Scorpion, NCIS: New Orleans and The McCarthys

CBS being CBS and not especially fussed by much, they haven’t quite got round to putting together trailers for all their new shows for this week’s upfronts presentations (unlike Fox, ABC, TNT and TBS. Admittedly, NBC was also a bit slack, but that’s more likely to be incompetence). So we’re going to have to wait to have a gander at Battle Creek, CSI: Cyber and The Odd Couple.

CBS also being CBS means that a lot of the new shows are procedurals or spin-offs from existing procedurals or are generic multi-camera comedies.

Trailers after the jump.

Trailers for all the new TNT shows: Transporter: The Series, The Librarians, Proof and Public Morals
