Happy Birthday to:

"Funny People" star Adam Sandler (1966)

The classic tearjerker movie. Many of us watch them with a diet coke in one hand and a box of Kleenex in the other. Whether it's a sappy Lifetime movie or an old classic romance, we enjoy watching them even though they make us weep like little babies. Some won't admit to tearing up, while others put the blame on "allergies" or use other excuses.

Following are the new actors and characters that will join CBS's hit series this fall in regular, recurring and guest starring roles.
