April 27, 201114 yr This is making me slightly worried for Nikita :( Though it should be pretty safe, 'Hellcats' ain't coming back with the 0.5 it got last Tuesday, and The CW probably don't want more than three new shows right? So then OTH should be safe as well, reports yesterday seemed to be saying that the cast had been signing on... Sophia and Bethany have signed on again, no word on James although he could be returning part time. A few of the re-occurring cast have signed on too and Chad Michael Murray is hinting at a return if Season 9 happens!
April 27, 201114 yr Forgot about Nikita, hopefully they keep it. It's the only show I watch from The CW anyway.
April 28, 201114 yr Great news for TVD, ANTM, 90210. I don't care for Supernatural and Gossip Girl, they've gone downhill (as has OTH). I also watch Nikita and Hellcats, I don't mind the latter but I hope Nikita is coming back!
April 28, 201114 yr Glad 90210 is coming back. It may get slated quite a bit but it's very addicting.
April 28, 201114 yr Mark Pedowitz is the new president on The CW, hopefully he can improve things. But on Tuesday night, Hellcats sank to a 0.4 and below 1 million viewers - no chance it's coming back now, we could be getting a cancellation announcement very soon.
April 28, 201114 yr Regardless of the state The CW is in Hellcats never seemed contemporary enough to catch on. Very tame and dated in its execution.
April 28, 201114 yr So glad Gossip Girl is getting renewed, it's one of the few shows I properly adore. That said, I still have to watch the latest season.
April 28, 201114 yr Author Mark Pedowitz is the new president on The CW, hopefully he can improve things. But on Tuesday night, Hellcats sank to a 0.4 and below 1 million viewers - no chance it's coming back now, we could be getting a cancellation announcement very soon. I'm hoping that the CW can stop peddling trash like 90210 and One Tree Hill with their overly generic/cliche trash storylines. Maybe then Hollyoaks can stop using the storylines they reject for being too cliche and generic. Returns to brilliant shows like Charmed and Gilmore Girls from the WB days would be nice. Although given that Pedowitz is responsible for Ugly Betty and Grey's Anatomy. I don't hold much hope for cliche free series' they should at least be watchable. I'm rather gutted Hellcats is headed for certain cancellation unless Dawn throws OTH to the cancellation bear, YEARS OVERDUE, and gives Hellcats a pity renewal through lack of money to fund 4 new series. [They only have 6 pilots!!!]
April 28, 201114 yr LOL you think 90210 is overly generic/clichéd but Hellcats... isn't? 90210 is about as good as teen drama gets nowadays. Yes it's a wildly OTT fantasy but it's got great production values, it doesn't take itself seriously, it's fun, it's camp and it's glamorous, and some of the cast can even act!
April 28, 201114 yr Author Oh i'm well aware Hellcats is cliche as f*** but i'm in love with Tisdale so i let it slide :lol:
April 28, 201114 yr ...I'm sure I'm not the only one that thinks that a Popular 2.0 would be fine to see on the CW...
May 1, 201114 yr I quite like 90210 after watching it with my housemate. It's not as bad as the dreadful Gossip Girl or Hellcats which is basically the biggest pile of crap I've ever had to endure in my life. The CW [like all the networks bar CBS and possibly FOX] is in a bad state though. Sadly the new executive won't be able to make a lot of changes until next year as Dawn is pretty much still in control. They need to give up on the 18-34 demo and look at the shows that actually bring them in viewers. Those that have elements of The WB [TVD, Nikita, Supernatural]. They have a lot of potential to make the right decisions with their pilots but if Dawn has any say in what get's picked up we can expect more of the same crap. The woman is an abomination [yes I'm still seething she ditched Veronica Mars but lets shows with far less creative prospects and ratings stay on air but hey :heehee:]. Personally only The Secret Circle sounds like a hit out of their new pilots but they should go with the zombie one Awakening and Heavenly rather than the probable Hart of Dixie and that stupid female detective one about pop culture :/ And bringing OTH back wouldn't be so bad for them. It performs better than the 3 aforementioned teen soaps and they need every success they can muster at the minute.
May 1, 201114 yr Author One Tree Hill is currently getting a 0.9 rating on a good day. It's out performing Hellcats/90210 and Gossip Girl, but it's hardly a hit or cause for celebration.
May 1, 201114 yr Tbh I dont see how they can make another season of Supernatural, each season gets worse but maybe they'll put in more Castiel storylines. But it really is pushing it, as much as I love Jensen Ackles and Misha Collins, the show is way past its heyday - yet I do keep on watching. Same with 90210 (although with this one it was never good). Its just full of inconsistencies and dropped plots, and several bad actors, yet its oddly addicting. I watch it mostly for Naomi at this point, she runs the show tbh.
May 1, 201114 yr ...I'm sure I'm not the only one that thinks that a Popular 2.0 would be fine to see on the CW... One of the best shows, seriously! But there will never be another Mary Cherry. Sometimes I feel Glee ripped the show in someways, although I find Popular a billion times better. Seriously, the things you could get away with in teen shows 10 years ago compared to now, its like we've gone back to the dark ages.

May 1, 201114 yr One of the best shows, seriously! But there will never be another Mary Cherry. Sometimes I feel Glee ripped the show in someways, although I find Popular a billion times better. Seriously, the things you could get away with in teen shows 10 years ago compared to now, its like we've gone back to the dark ages. I'm still pissed that we never got a third season :(. It sounded amazing from the premise and the cliffhanger was a bitch! I've got both boxsets and still watch them now and again. Mary Cherry is seriously one of my favourite TV characters ever :wub: Definetly get where you're coming from with the Glee comparisons, probably why I love it so much!
May 1, 201114 yr Author This is The CW though and going on that it's like what? In the top half of their shows? :heehee: Yeah it's like #3 or #4 :lol: The only major where a 1.0 rating is a reason to break out the Krug.
May 1, 201114 yr I'm absolutely shitting myself at the possibility of The Good Wife not being renewed. Like working myself into a major panic.
