CBS lineup has strong women characters

The Chicago Sun Times reports that many of the female-friendly shows slated for the fall are on CBS:
In “Threshold,” the main character is a contingency analyst who is asked to stop space invaders from killing our species. A soldier-type guy tells her, “You just became the most important person on the planet.”

On “Close to Home,” the lead is a prosecutor who puts away creeps while storing her breast milk in a work fridge.
And on “The Ghost Whisperer,” Jennifer Love Hewitt passes messages from ghosts to humans, while also running a small business and a new marriage.
“They’re guy roles for women,” Hewitt says of this bumper crop of acting parts.
Even on two new sitcoms with ensemble casts, the women have dominant roles, at least in the pilots. On “Out of Practice,” Stockard Channing rules whatever room she is in and emotionally towers over her ex-husband, played by Henry Winkler. On “How I Met Your Mother,” Alyson Hannigan plays a sexual assertive, and Cobie Smulders is the one who tries to get her date drunk.
Guy roles for women? Hewitt’s annoying comment aside, I’m glad to see there will be some new strong female characters. Ah Buffy, how I miss you.
