According to my info, only The WB’s Gilmore Girls, Smallville and Supernatural are locks. UPN adds America’s Next Top Model, Everybody Hates Chris, Girlfriends, Friday Night Smackdown! and also probably Veronica Mars. Yes, the teen sleuth show has dreadful ratings, but it was Dawn Ostroff’s baby back at UPN and, as The CW’s new entertainment prez, she’s still emotionally tied to the so-so albeit critically praised. There is one piece of good news: The execrable Charmed will vaporize. (Damn them for replacing Shannen Doherty.) All the other highly watchable WB shows such as One Tree Hill, Everwood, the new Bedford Diaries and Pepper Dennis are in limbo. This really blows for the netlet’s loyalists (I confess I have the TV tastes of a 12-year-old girl. I still mourn Beverly Hills, 90210.) In the beginning back in 1995, the WB was planned as a dumping ground for Warner TV pilots and series that didn’t get picked up by the major networks. But, soon, The WB and UPN were bucking the network trend of going for the most eyeballs possible and instead targeting the younger 18-to-34 demographic and African-Americans
(Hope this is alright ^_^)

The important part:
The CW looks to have a winner in the still young and steadily improving WB thriller Supernatural, and its young stars Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki would make perfect poster boys for the new network.

Though from reading that article I feel badly for Veronica Mars fans. :( They expect to bring it over to The CW, but they don't expect it to survive.
/Off I go...

I am glad to hear Supernatural made the cut. Smallville too, I suppose. I only watch it occasionally. I hope Everwood makes it. All the other crap though...they can have. Toss them away.

I'm very happy about Supernatural, if this is all true. There has to be more than one season of that show.

Date: 2006-04-27 10:15 pm (UTC)Yeah, I thought VM was doing good too, I've never seen the show either though.
I didn't mind them replacing Doherty on Charmed, what got me in the long run was all the Cole trouble, and how they started focusing less on the family relationship and more on the magic.

Date: 2006-04-28 03:27 am (UTC)Yay for Supernatural! Although, I wasn't worried about my boys coz I know they can take care of themselves. :)
Veronica Mars on the otherhand....:( *cries* They CAN'T take it off the air! It's one of the best shows ever! Grr...this is so frustrating!
Do you mind if I post this in my LJ? Credited of course.

Sure you can post it, you don't have to credit me, just post it as is, so the people who actually wrote it gets the credit. :)
