Granted, part of that was apparently because they only wanted SAG actors, but it's still funny.

Did you guys read about how the CW held a casting call for their “hit” Gossip Girl . . . and only four people showed up? Funniest story ever!

You sir are correct! My lens for looking at CW results had become obscured from disuse.

Indeed, a 0.9 in the 18-49 demo for FWAW, does make it a bona fide summer hit for the likes of the CW.

As you point out the far more expensive, and loved, Gossip Girl averaged only a 1.0 18-49 rating during the regular season.
