'Unforgettable' could be revived

"Unforgettable," the Poppy Montgomery-Dylan Walsh drama on CBS that was ended before its time, could be getting a reprieve. There are some reports — notably in the Hollywood Reporter — that say CBS is thinking about a 13-episode order for the summer of 2013. I've independently confirmed that the idea is in fact being discussed, but nothing official. For fans — and New York-produced "Unforgettable" had a few — this could be remarkable news. Shows brought back from the dead are rare indeed; the one that comes most immediately to mind of course is "Jericho," which had a rabid fan base but alas not big enough to sustain longevity. Unclear whether "Unforgettable " fans mounted a protest, but if they did, someone in fact has listened.
