Yep. The network is the best it has ever been now.
Hell, I'm watching 8 hours of it in the fall.
No, Im thinking about QUALITY shows like Crazy Ex Girlfriend, IZombie, The 100, and Whos Line is it Anyway.
Theyre all relegated to the dumpster so we can have another superhero fest set in the same soundstage.
You want to talk quality older shows? Gossip Girl, Everybody Hates Chris, Veronica Mars, Reba, The Game,
Ugh, I remember those days. The pinnacle of her run was during the transition from The WB/UPN to The CW and they decided that renewing 7th Heaven for an 11th season, even though the series had already finished, was a better idea than renewing Everwood. Funnily enough, Everwood was created by Greg Berlanti.
Um, all the current shows you list had way longer runs than they should have given their ratings. I'm not sure how an iZombie, Crazy Ex or 100 fan can be mad at The CW.
Relegated to the dumpster?
You realize those quality shows wouldn't exist without the superhero shit propping up the network, right? What do you think would happen to a network full of shows that averaged a 0.2? None of those shows would've lived past one season anywhere else.
The superhero shows are the top watched shows on the CW and the ones you listed are all in the bottom half. They're in the "dumpster" because not enough people watch them.
Let's be honest, the only thing really in the dumpster is Wayward Sisters.
Too soon?
Bloodlines was actually an example how to create a spin-off that doesn't have anything to do with the original show. They could've ditched the SN universe and no one would notice. Imo with Supernatural it's really hard to make another (good) show that won't be primarily about 'saving people, hunting things'.
iZombie got 5 seasons. It wouldn't even exist if not for the shows you're saying you want to go away.
Yeah, that seems like a risky movie depending on a fanbase you just scorned and have a tendency to retaliate to prop up a show that got chosen over their preferred spinoff.
Nah, it's fun to see you shitting on show/concepts people like.
Crazy Ex got 4 seasons, iZombie & Jane got 5 seasons and The 100 & Whose Line got 6 seasons. That's a win by any TV standard.
"But the superheroes are preventing us from getting QUALITY shows!"
Yep, iZombie's getting a final season with CBS produced CW show numbers. There's nothing to complain about there.
Is The 100 even announced as a final season? Seems like it's doing pretty well by The CW standards.
Oh good lord The CW opened their upfronts with a live performance from Thirty Seconds to Mars. Could they have picked a worse band for the news cycle right now? If this were a public event they'd get crucified.
Cole Sprouse was on stage immediately afterward too, that's painful.

Nope! Just Jane, iZombie and Crazy Ex are confirmed ending. Whose Line and The 100 are just plain renewed.
Is the Leto stuff getting traction in MSM? I've just seen it mentioned here.
Dylan's tweet went viral and a bunch of mid level outlets have reported on it. It's on the cusp if people keep pushing it.
There is no way this show isn't riddled with incestual under (or over) tones
Jesus, JTV, CEG, and iZombie ending?!? I get it but that will be a huge loss. Those are all the good shows on CW.

Straight to series from script? The hits keep coming to WS fans. :P
CW upfronts trailers.

Not much of anything though other than All American and Charmed. There's a few sizzle reels also.

why? I'm pretty up on the news, and I don't know what you're talking about.
edit: found it. https://www.cosmopolitan.com/entert...sprouse-jared-leto-twitter-model-accusations/
I don't know why I'm supposed to care.
You don't care he's fucking underage girls? Your perogative I guess.
Wooowwwwwwww, Charmed looks extremely bad. And I don't understand the whole Legacies thing. Vampire Diaries and the Originals are cancelled and do not seem to be a heavy hitter in the ratings... so why do they think a spin off of a spin off is going to be successful...? Doesn't Supernatural do better than the Originals?
18 is not underaged.
also, "slid into the dm's" - do people really talk like this? what happened to just "messaged"?
Read into it a little further. There's been reports of multiple 15 year old girls, potentially younger.

I'm just shocked at how bad Charmed looks because it's coming from the same writer/EP as Jane the Virgin, which has always been mostly great.
I'm reading the thread. All i see is "dude messaging 18 year old girls". So? There's no law against that. And since when is messaging someone a problem?
All American looks good. I don't care about Charmed.

Charmed will be a solid contender for the lowest ratings in the 2018/19 season (well, maybe for the second place, Dynasty is surely going to be a "winner"). They've put it on a new night for the CW and it looks like total crap, nothing like the original show which was my guilty pleasure back in the day.
Charmed looks not great. I expected a more jokey tone. It's from the Jane the Virgin team, a show that was big on the subversion of expectations and tropes. Also the two younger sisters (despite the actors being 12 years different in age) looking kind of inhumanely similar. The oldest one is a half sister at least. Weird.
I'm not going to do your work for you. There's plenty of shit out there about Leto, it has nothing to do with messaging models.
oh, a reddit text post. I'm not saying that I don't think this is possible, but let's not pretend that a secondhand reddit post is a fact.
CWlogic. Nobody can understand what they are doing anymore.
One of the only times I can think of when I've agreed with dead souls, but the same for me.
The CW is my most watched network right now. And where I realize there are better written shows than the superhero shows, I still love them. They are good popcorn fun and would hate to see them end.
Yeah, I couldn't tell them apart. Which helps sell the idea that they're sisters, but still confusing.
Day ? Still no news on Timeless. My mind is unable to focus, all I can think about is Rufus. I must get answers. I must...
Anyway, as a fan of the original Charmed and JtV that looked worse than the Magnum PI reboot. It is nothing like the original series. Same house, similar powers, same name, that's it. Where are my strong female characters? Why am I getting this angsty teenage garbage? Wayward Sisters had competent women this has whiny charictures, not watching.
