Sounds rather boring, except perhaps for Supernatural.

Themes like this seem to be quite popular this year. Hopefully the networks don't force the genre into overkill like they have with reality TV?

It looks like most of the networks are doing a supernatural drama.

NBC - Fathom
ABC - Invasion, Night Stalker
CBS - Threshold
WB - Supernatural

Not all of those are going to be another Lost.

So Charmed was renewed?

It's on Sunday night.

I know what night it airs but I knew it was on the verge of cancellation. After posting, I read on Spoilerfix that it was renewed.

There are far too many risks taken for just one season. I sense a down year for WB. Kudos to both WB and ABC for trying to dominate on NBC's loss on Thursdays, but it just won't happen.

Pepper Dennis (starring Rebecaa Romjin)

Im there.

RIP JACK AND BOBBY.


You will be missed.

The only WB show I watch One Tree Hill is returning I am so excited. Plus, the episode count for One Tree Hill's third season has been bumped up from 22 episodes to 26 episodes. YES!!!

The WB's Schedule Mixes New and Old
(Tuesday, May 17 09:27 AM)

LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) After last season's drama hopefuls suffered noble -- underwatched critical favorite "Jack & Bobby" -- and ignoble -- despised dud "The Mountain" -- demises, The WB has gone back to the drawing board for a new schedule that's heavy on new dramas and light on the network's never-ending quest to find comedy hits.

The WB's ratings for the season are roughly flat, as the netlet continues its seemingly endless battle with UPN for fifth place. Although several of its signature dramas are showing a bit of age, each of The WB's three fresh hour-longs -- "Just Legal," "Supernatural" and "Related" -- will be cushioned by a proven winner.

Despite the network's much maligned track record with humorous projects, The WB's only returning shows from the past year are "Living with Fran" and "Blue Collar TV," hence a slate that includes only one new comedy, "Twins."


"Our goal was to develop distinct and original series from the top producers working in the medium today," says WB Entertainment President David Janollari. "Finding the next group of hot buzz-worthy WB shows has been the guiding mission of our development season. The blend of A-list executive producers that have come to the network for the first time, along with our homegrown superstars, form the creative backbone of our new schedule."

Showing stability at the top, The WB's week will begin with "7th Heaven," entering its 10th season, at 8 p.m. ET. "Just Legal" takes over the "Everwood" 9 p.m. slot. That series, executive produced by hitmaker Jerry Bruckheimer, stars Jay Baruchel ("Undeclared") as a legal prodigy learning the ropes from a legendary burnout (Don Johnson).

"Jerry Bruckheimer is the master of the genre, and the pairing of Don Johnson, who is renowned for playing tough guys in buddy comedy roles, with Jay Baruchel, one of the most accomplished young actors of his generation, is the foundation for a great series," says Janollari in a chatty statement that raves about all of the netlet's new offerings.

"Gilmore Girls" holds onto its Tuesday lead position, as it comes off a critically acclaimed and ratings rejuvenated fifth season that ends Tuesday (May 17) with a whopper of a cliffhanger. Former "Gilmore" love interest Jared Padalecki and one-time "Smallville" co-star Jensen Ackles are familiar faces at the network and will take over the 9 p.m. slot with "Supernatural." The McG-produced drama focuses on two brothers traveling the country in the '67 Chevy Impala hunting down evil supernatural forces.

"This is one wild ride of a pilot, and this show is going to scare the living daylights out of people every week," raves Janollari of "Supernatural. "McG and Eric Kripke have crafted a genuinely frightening hour of television with two hot young leads familiar to our audience. It flat out delivers the goods."

The WB is moving "One Tree Hill" to Wednesday nights for its third season. The teen soap, which once had something to do with basketball, will lead into "Related," from "Friends" vet Marta Kauffman, focusing on a group of sisters living in New York City.

After years of avoiding a Thursday commitment, The WB is attacking the night, recruiting "Smallville" from Wednesdays and "Everwood" from Mondays.

Comedy will still reign on Friday nights, led by the venerably low rated Amanda Bynes sitcom "What I Like About You." Sara Gilbert ("Roseanne") and Molly Stanton play mismatched twins in the appropriately named "Twins," which co-stars Melanie Griffith and will have an 8:30 p.m. home. The night closes strongly with "Reba," back for its fifth season, and midseason minor success "Living with Fran."

Sundays will remain pretty much the same for The WB, beginning with an hour of "Reba" encores" at 7 p.m. and continuing into the unkillable "Charmed" at 8. "Blue Collar TV" steps in for "Steve Harvey's Big Time Challenge" in the impossible 9 p.m. slot.

In addition, The WB has ordered a pair of midseason comedies and dramas.



That sucks for the fans of JACK & BOBBY. I didn't watch though (I did see a few episodes and it was alright) so I myself am pretty happy with their schedule overall. The main one I care about is GILMORE GIRLS and that was obviously going to be back anyway after such an awesome performance in the ratings this year. I will definitely watch SUPERNATURAL because of the sexy Jared Padalecki. The show sounds cool too, but mostly because of him. I hope it's a horror-themed show that's actually a winner. And even though Jared will be on this show I still really hope he'll be back on GILMORE GIRLS some, especially when it comes time for the show to come to an end (which I'm in denial about ever happening :wink:). When it's in its last season though I hope his character will be back so Dean and Rory can get together. She can have all kinds of other boyfriends in the meantime, but in the end I want them together. In the final season they can get married or something. Maybe that could even happen on the finale. Whatever, all I know is that I want them together.

I'm kind of surprised WHAT I LIKE ABOUT YOU is back but I'm definitely pleased. I loved the first season, but the last couple of seasons haven't been as good so I only watch an episode here and there. I'm still glad it's back though. I wish it would get really good again. They should bring back hottie Simon Rex. I liked him in the first season. They should also start getting the show on DVD soon because that would likely help it some in the ratings. It would be even better if some network (like ABC Family) started airing reruns of the three seasons that have aired so far. They could air it from the beginning. I think that would help it out too. It usually does help a show out when that happens.
