As expected, Barbara Bloom has been named CBS' senior vice president of
daytime and children's programming.

Bloom will oversee daytime dramas, game show The Price Is Right and
the network's Saturday-morning lineup, "Nick on CBS."

Bloom comes to CBS from ABC Entertainment, where she shared head-writing
duties on daytime drama Port Charles.

Bloom replaces Lucy Johnson, who exited CBS.
