Smart move to put Supergirl and Jane The Virgin together. Their tones match.

Good move with putting Arrow and the Flash with their new series.

The Vampire Dairies and Crazy Ex-Girlfriend feel like final seasons.

Supernatural might have 1-2 more seasons left in it.

The midseason shows are just waiting to hit syndication status, then they are done.

 

Those October starts make it more and more obvious that the CW can't compete with the bigger networks.

I can't see SPN doing well on Thursdays. It didn't before. But I can't see it going on much longer anyway.

 

Arrow is tatty and staggers along. It won't do much to help a new show. Flash also doesn't tend to either.

 

Surprised they aren't holding LoT to midseason, given the ratings haven't been hot. I think 4 superhero shows at once is going to be burnout.

I think they should have paired Supergirl with the 100.

 

And boo on the Originals...its current season has subpassed TVD so much that I'm watching with no knowledge of the first 2 seasons based on the strength of what's been going on.

The Originals lost their entire audience once Claire Holt left. It's a good show but its ratings haven't been good. The CW will be out of the Vampire game come this time next year. 

 

 

SPN does about the same as Legends of Tomorrow and Arrow though. I don't think they will cancel SPN this upcoming season or even the next one because there isn't much on the network that outperforms it. LOT, SPN, Arrow, Flash and Supergirl are the top 5 rated shows on the network. It wouldn't make sense for them to cancel SPN when it outperforms so much of their programming. The CW cancelling SPN but keeping the other half of their programming wouldn't make sense. If Jensen and Jared are willing they'll just keep it going.

Why (like FOX) does the CW not even try to have a 10 P.M. slot? Is that when they give the slot back to the affiliates? If not, they should've paired all their DC comic shows on the same night and made it a nice block like ABC does with Shonda Rhimes shows. 

 

Still shocked they renewed Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. I tried watching an episode and had to cut it off. It was dreadful. 

 

Riverdale is the only show I am interested in on their entire lineup even though Greg Berlanti skewed from the canon according to the synopsis.

The CW doesn't have a strong enough programming to air all of their heaviest hitting shows on one night and then have nothing for the rest of the week.

 

They are better off doing what they are doing now and try to grow each night into stronger showings, then trying to dominate one night of the week.

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and Jane The Virgin only exist for award show appeal and to try and diversify the network away from being a genre network. 

The CW should work on getting Sunday back, before worrying about a 10 pm slot.

    • Dina was Jack, Ashley and Tracy's mom on Y&R.  Joanna was Lauren Fenmore's mother, played by Susan Seaworth-Hayes.
    • The funeral was not onscreen - only the Brooks returning home after the service. Not aware of any available clips.
    • Very very well said!!!

      I would only add that Sam Ratcliff is frequently named in regards to certain AW comedic turns.  And, we know from Carolyn Culliton (tweet 2024) that Sam & Gary put their heads together & came up with that gorilla.  
    • I knew you would be so excited seeing your girl Brookey as #1!!!! She also WINS as to Frequently Married!!!  
    • Yes, Stacy does this both for early DAYS & early GH. I have written some for her, for DAYS. But just one tiny point & that is that she only deals with DVDs. I realize that is not the point of your posting but it seemed the right thing to clarify. I know that you know that video tapes is past, not present.
    • Hahahha I think sleeping with almost all of your daughters's boyfriends and husbands and getting pregnant... definitely gives Brooke the right to top 1 place. Long live the whore of Beverly hills.

    • CurlyQGrl has DVDs of some episodes, that they can sell, but that doesn't matter. What is helpful: they describe the scenes on the tapes, so you can read that as recaps without ordering anything. Doesn't really give storylines, though, which is what you asked for.  Here's the links anyhow. full menu https://www.angelfire.com/tv/curlyqgrl/menu.html GH page https://www.angelfire.com/tv/curlyqgrl/gh/menu.html GH 1960s https://www.angelfire.com/tv/curlyqgrl/gh/eps/gheps1960s.htm
    • I would argue that Another World never played "everything" for laughs. Even when there were comedic scenes in some storylines there were other storylines that were not intended as comedy.  You give 1988 as the end point, and Mary was on the canvas from August 1986 to February 1989, so she must have overlapped with the despised laughs you are referring to at least half of the time she was there. I honestly can't recall any real comedy that Mary would have been part of. I don't think she was lighthearted about choosing between two husbands, MJ's prostitution, Kathleen's death, or even her son Scott dating her daughter Cheryl.  I would have said that the amount of comedy depended on the head writer and there was more comedy under Richard Culliton and Gary Tomlin in 1984 than subsequent headwriters. I guess there was an outbreak of more comedy when Cecile kidnapped Cass from his wedding in 1986, but in general the Sin Stalker wasn't presented as funny, Mitch's return wasn't funny, John's arrival wasn't funny, Reginald wasn't funny. The tone was serious even if the plots verged on the ludicrous. And maybe that's what you mean -- but I would make a distinction between intentional comedy and storylines I can't take seriously for other reasons. 
    • I'm excited for us to get back to a full weeks worth of episodes and also us beginning to move into the episodes filmed once the show premiered. We're already starting to see changes in the lighting and the way certain characters are styled. Of course we know this week we have our first recast as well. After the big Eva reveal, I hope the show continues to move into a positive direction and that we see them starting to fix some of the things we've all had issues with.
