More Upfronts News
Someone at CW needs to be shot!
Worst entertainment decision ever: Bringing back an 11th season of 7th Heaven (it's the show that wouldn't die!!) instead of a 5th season of Everwood. Sigh. Why? Why?!
Intelligent TV vs. contrived plots
Solid acting vs. cheesy acting
Critically acclaimed vs. critically panned
Gilmore Girls and Veronica Mars will be the Tuesday night lineup. Bedford Diaries didn't make the cut (moment of silence). Other than that, I don't really care, to be honest. Supernatural, One Tree Hill, and Smallville are all coming over from the WB, but I don't watch those, so... I don't care one way or the other.
Adina and I had our wishlist of shows to be brought over: GG, EW, BD, and Related. One for four? Sigh. Can we please determine the new network's lineup? We could do a better job.
And yes, I've had about 2 days to adjust to this news, so I'm not as sad as I was, but still...
The only consolation is that a) because of Everwood's schedule this season, their finale isn't until June, so they knew far enough in advance to shoot 2 versions of the finale--a season finale and a series finale. At least we'll get some closure and not a cliff-hanger (unlike some other shows I could name that get unexpectedly cut *cough*American Dreams*cough*), and b) maybe this will push them to get seasons 2 through 4 out on dvd sooner.

Alida, I'm mad with you.
Was the series finale of 7th Heaven not humiliating enough for the network?
Even Mike said "no.... that's horrible news" when I told him.
I mean "with" in the "solidarity, sister!" sense. Not in the "I am angry at you" sense.
