Posted June 7, 201015 yr http://shessmart.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/hellcats-clothing.jpg New series that started September 8, 2010 on the CW in USA. Stars Aly Michalka and Ashley Tisdale (:heart:). Hellcats revolves around Marti, a pre-law college student at Lancer College in Memphis, Tennessee, who comes from the wrong side of town. When budget cutbacks and her mother's carelessness cause her to lose her scholarship, she is forced to look for a new one. She overhears that one of the college cheerleaders has become injured, and a place on the team is available. Seeing no other option, Marti uses her previous gymnastic training to try out for a spot on the team, and a chance to get the scholarship that comes with it. After the team coach and captain see the potential for adding something new and different to the team in her, Marti makes it onto the Hellcats, the college's competitive cheerleading team. I hope it's a success for Aly after amazing Bandslam underperformed at BoxOffice. zb0lmiSuTdk Edited September 25, 201014 yr by Jamie.
June 7, 201015 yr It looks like a straight to DVD movie. Aly or Ashlee don't seem to have much acting ability. I'm actually quite shocked that the CW picked it up.
June 7, 201015 yr I hadn't heard about this until I read this thread, but I just watched the promo for it, and I'm really excited to see it! I love both Aly and Ashley, and they're both gorgeous to look at! :kink: Does anyone know when it is coming to the UK, and on what channel?
June 7, 201015 yr Author It looks like a straight to DVD movie. Aly or Ashlee don't seem to have much acting ability. I'm actually quite shocked that the CW picked it up.It does actually. I'm hoping it has some interesting characters and plenty of comedy/drama to spice up what seems an unoriginal plot.

If it does do well it'll probably go on itv2 as I think Gossip Girl is from CW. Edited June 7, 201015 yr by Jamieed
June 7, 201015 yr Looks dire. The lead character seems appealing, but the rest of it is the usual smug "oh-I'm-so-pretty-and-bitchy" generic angst $h!t.

One Tree Hill & 90210 are also on The CW and they're on e4. That being said Gossip Girl & The Vampire Diaries are both also on The CW and are sold to ITV2. It's pretty much between these two, I think.

I'll give it a chance but I know what you mean - over the top drama 'Bring It On' in a TV Series. i saw the words ashley tisdale and puked.:o, I love the Tis!

June 8, 201015 yr It's on The CW. Home of Gossip Girl and 90210. Hardly original and inventive television. It's not my cup of tea so I shall be avoiding it like the plague and tbh I have good reason judging by clips I've seen. Nothing against the girls as they're both decent but God this show just screams AWFUL.
September 23, 201014 yr I've just watch the third episode after being told by my friends it's the kind of $h!t i'd love. As usual they were right. I love it.
September 23, 201014 yr I watched the first two episodes, and I really liked them :D I've paused episode #3 about 10mins through (it's buffering slower than normal <_<), but I hope it improves as it's had the weakest opening out of the three episodes so far imo :( EDIT: Seemed to pick up about half-way through, but it was still probably my least favourite episode so far Edited September 23, 201014 yr by Jack Pilgrim
September 25, 201014 yr I can't wait to see this. I'm not kidding when I say Ashley Tisdale is my favourite actress of all time :cheer:
September 25, 201014 yr Hasn't this done surprisingly well in the ratings?! Either way I'll probably end up watching it :(.
September 25, 201014 yr Hasn't this done surprisingly well in the ratings?! Either way I'll probably end up watching it :(. Hmm kind of, but not really :lol: It had an initial good start, but that's because they put it on a week before everything started. Now it's averaging 2.4 mil, which isn't particularly good considering shows like Glee and Big Bang Theory get 14 mil.. but The CW notoriously gets lower viewing figures, so it's doing pretty well for a show on that network.
September 25, 201014 yr I'm loving the show, it's fantastic. And it's doing very well for a show on the network that it's one, so it's hardly fair to compare it to shows like The Big Bang Theory or Glee.
September 25, 201014 yr Author I'm hoping they will air it in UK soon. Living are going to show 'Nikita' soon, which started on CW roughly same time as 'Hellcats'. Hmm kind of, but not really :lol: It had an initial good start, but that's because they put it on a week before everything started. Now it's averaging 2.4 mil, which isn't particularly good considering shows like Glee and Big Bang Theory get 14 mil.. but The CW notoriously gets lower viewing figures, so it's doing pretty well for a show on that network.Yes, it won't match up to them because it's on CW - who seem to get 2/3million viewers average for their shows - so it should be safe if it doesn't fall below that bracket. I haven't seen it yet but I've heard good things about it, which I'm glad to hear! CW have ordered 6 more scripts for the show. Edited September 25, 201014 yr by Jamie.
September 25, 201014 yr Comparing its ratings to Glees ratings would be like comparing a Hyundai to a Ferrari and wondering why it comes up short.
September 25, 201014 yr I'm really into the show, and the ratings are for The CW, so it seems safe (for now) :)
September 27, 201014 yr Comparing its ratings to Glees ratings would be like comparing a Hyundai to a Ferrari and wondering why it comes up short. Well, I didn´t just comare the two shows. Look at the context I used the comparison in.. Jack asked if it had done surprisingly well in the ratings. So I explained how it had done well for The CW ratings, but for overall.. not so much. They weren´t just randomly compared.
September 29, 201014 yr It's 6/10 on The CW. I follow US ratings closely so I know none of my favourite shows are in danger of getting the chop :P It has a few likeable qualities about it but I still don't see the appeal at all. Both actresses deserve better imo. 01 The Vampire Diaries 02 Nikita 03 America's Next Top Model 04 Smallville 05 Supernatural 06 Hellcats 07 One Tree Hill 08 90210 09 Gossip Girl 10 Life UnXpected
