CBS Entertainment President Nina Tassler and CBS head of scheduling Kelly Kahl did a press event Wednesday about the network's fall schedule.
CBS canceled "CSI: Miami" Sunday after 10 seasons, choosing to renew fellow spin-off and bubble show "CSI: NY" instead.
"We really liked 'The Mentalist' at 10 [on Sundays] and unfortunately that just meant 'Miami' was the odd man out."
Added Nina Tassler: "It was a very tough choice. It was almost a jump ball. It was just about servicing the schedule. 'Miami's' and 'NY's' costs were very close. ... It was a matter of looking at the schedule and what worked the best."
