"Pilot" - After a psychic tells Bella that she's already dated the man she's destined to marry, Bella makes a list of her exes and sets off on a journey through her past romances, hoping to reconnect with her soul mate, on THE EX LIST, premiering on Friday, Oct. 3 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

THE EX LIST is about Bella Bloom - a single, 30-something, successful business owner who is surprised to learn from a psychic that she was already dated her future husband AND there's a catch: if she doesn't find him in the next year, she'll remain alone forever. During a bachelorette party for her sister, Daphne, Bella learns from the psychic she must revisit her past relationships and sort through the mistakes to find her soul mate. Skeptical, Bella begins to analyze every past liaison and failed romance with her close circle of friends, Augie, an endearing guy who has listened to Bella's love woes since college, Vivian, Augie's long-term girlfriend, and Cyrus, who's chronically unemployed and full of wry observations. Once Bella witnesses proof of the psychic's other predictions, her cynicism disappears and she begins her search. Along her trip down break-up lane, Bella is determined to remain optimistic and receptive, believing that when destiny reopens doors to the past, every relationship can matter in the future.
