Buffy's back!

CBS has entered the pilot pickup madness, ordering six projects to series, including a father-daughter sitcom starring Robin Williams and Sarah Michelle Gellar, who recently headlined the CW's short-lived Ringer, as well as a new comedy starring Arrested Development's Will Arnett, whose comedy Up All Night was just canceled by NBC.

Plus, Lost's Josh Holloway is set to make his return to TV (Huzzah!) and Anna Faris teams up with Two and a Half Men's Chuck Lorre for a new sitcom...

Crazy Ones: Robin Williams and Sarah Michelle Gellar star as a father-duo who runs an advertising business together in this workplace comedy from David E. Kelley. James Wolk and Amanda Setton costar.

Mom: Anna Faris stars as a newly sober single mother who attempts to get her in life in order in Napa Valley. Allison Janney plays her mother and Nate Corddry costars in this multi-cam from Two and a Half Men's Chuck Lorre.

We Are Men: How I Met Your Mother's Rob Greenberg's single-cam sitcom centers on a young guy befriending a group of more experienced men (played by Jerry O'Connell, Tony Shalhoub and Kal Penn) when he moves into a short-term rental complex.

The Millers: Will Arnett stars as a recently divorced man whose parents decide to move in with him, complicating his life. Justified's Margo Martindale and Beau Bridges costar.

Intelligence: Lost's Josh Holloway is at the center of this action drama about a U.S. Cyber Command unit as an agent with a microchip implanted in his brain that allows him to access the entire electromagnetic spectrum. CSI's Marg Helgenberger, Michael Rady and Once Upon a Time's Meghan Ory also star.

Hostages: Toni Collette, Dylan McDermott and Tate Donovan head this medical-political drama centering on Ellen (Collette), a Washington, D.C.-based surgeon who finds herself in the middle of a political conspiracy after being chosen to operate on the president.
