Seeing the numbers, how can the CW keep on pitching GG as a 'runaway hit'? And why aren't they promoting their other shows that appear to be doing as well or better than GG (Reaper?) But really boggles the mind is that a Dawn Ostroff interview from awhile back suggested that next season, the CW will be producing more of the same (How to Teach Filthy Rich Girls). I just don't get it. Why can't Dawn et co figure out that a lot of (I would even suggest most) people in her target market don't want to watch a bunch of mean rich girls? Unbelievable.

Because if it did........ Everyone would know what they're missing. It really can not be judged by one episode though, you really need to have started watching from the begining to truely appreciate it. Although, some of the episodes do stand alone without knowing the whole story. But ,at least I have had the good fortune of being able to find and watch a show that is intelligent, funny, emotional, intense and spooky. Also, it has one of the most real and wonderful portrayal of a sibling relationship that I have ever seen. Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki do an amazing job playing these two brothers. Thank you to Eric Kripke (the creator) and all the writers, producers, directors. and the crew. Those of you who don't watch for whatever reason............it is your loss.<br>Also, it is nice to finally find something to watch that does not insult my intelligence.<br>(sorry if that sounded condescending but it's true) Wow, It is too bad that the world is only tuned to three major stations.( ABC, CBS, and NBC) And it is too bad that the show Supernatural does not air on one of them.

Come on someone's gotta agree. Why don't they cancel weeknights as well??? seriously this “network” sucks and stinks, u don't need a separate network to broadcast 2 reality shows and 4 dramas.

They have already renewed 6 of those hours. My guess is that Reaper is coming back, since it's doing better than Gossip Girl at least, and is about on par with One Tree Hill. That leaves three hours to program. Friday night will probably go back to a WB type comedy line up, meaning one more hour of comedies will be picked up/renewed. (Though I can't possibly imagine anyone renewing Aliens in America.)<br><br>And the last two hours will be more reality. Again. Will Pussycat Dolls and Farmer Wants a Wife come back, or will CW find a way to actually be creative? So this brings them down to 10 hours, if they keep Friday nights.

That would be a hoot. Maybe whoever programs The CW's Sunday nights will have better programming than the network itself. That would be a hoot.
