uh oh...


perez hilton stated the other day on his blog that the "cw network is failing" and that "one or more owners are ready to bail out" on the channel.


this is bad news for anyone who loves gossip girl, as i do. monday night showed the networks second highest ratings in its two year history, yet still it is being trumpeted as a "major disappointment" by some insiders at the wall street journal.


wsj needs to shut up. they dont know what they are talking about. obviously people are going to focus in more on the major networks because they are well known and better advertised. they will naturally get more veiwers. this is not anything new.


the truth is that the cw has one GREAT show, a couple decent shows (one tree hill and antm), and a host of terrible ones. they just need to do better chosing their programing.


next season's premiere of the 90210 "redo" should be good for them, although i suspect that show is going to be terrible. i suppose we will have to wait for the upfronts in the fall before we find out what cw's future will be.
