TV Worth Blogging About

Yesterday, the CW took a lot of the guessing out of what will be renewed for next season by giving early renewal orders to its four hit series; The Vampire Diaries for season 6, Supernatural for season 10, Arrow for season 3, and the freshman hit The Originals for season 2. What came as a bit of a surprise was the renewal of one of its modest freshman series; Reign. But when all is said and done, 5 hours of the CW schedule has been set in stone for next year, before the premieres of its two mid season shows; Star Crossed and The 100.

THE CW is making some drastic but needs changes going into the spring. The CW is up in total viewers and demo’s over last year but it still has two significantly struggling nights and it desperately needs to stop the bleeding. This Fall the CW saw 1 of its three new original series, The Originals, become a mega hit while the other two have done well enough to receive back orders but not well enough to secure a season 2 pickup…yet. Mondays have been a ratings disaster for the CW for the last two years, so the CW is taking another crack at by launching STAR CROSSED this winter. Eventually the Star-Crossed will be followed by the freshman series The Tomorrow People. Amell Wednesday will also be a thing of the past come March, when the tomorrow People vacates its post Arrow slot where the 100 will take its place. Unfortunately Beauty and the Beast will go a hiatus with no return date specified, which is not good news for its renewal chances. I have broken down the CW schedule...

CW has been known for renewing shows that have bad ratings, and with ten slots to fill this fall it was anyone’s guess, what would be renewed and which would be cancelled. For the second year in a row, the CW has moved away from its typical bread and butter – teen dramas set in high school. Instead, they have move toward shows that engages the male audience, and has little to nothing to do with the happenings of teenagers and their sex lives. With 5 new dramas and a couple of new reality shows set to premiere this 2013-2014 season, if you haven’t been a CW fan now is the time give them a chance.  2013 CW FALL SCHEDULE Monday 8 P.M. – HART OF DIXIE (SEASON 3 PREMIERE OCTOBER 7 TH 2013) 9 P.M. – BEAUTY AND THE BEAST (SEASON 2 PREMIERE OCTOBER 7 TH 2013) Tu...
