The Unexpected Astronaut Mom

CBS airs a new thriller Extant on July 9th starring Halle Berry as an astronaut who returns from a year-long solo mission on a space station only to find she is pregnant.  And once she is back on Earth she has to deal with a skeptical employer, a shocked husband, and a redundant robotic son.  This is no Gravity, though it sounds like quite a show to be launched mid-summer. Here is a trailer to test your interest. 

The 13-part series is brought to you by Steven Spielberg, the same guy who brought you the movie Artificial Intelligence many years back about a robotic boy trying to mix with humanity.  So is this about space aliens or a new brand of artificial humans?  We know that with Spielberg it is always about getting back to mother, so I guess we will just have to see which "child" is the focus and sit back for some fun.
