The weirdest mergerpartnership...

I'm sure you've heard by now... UPN & WB will no longer be, effective fall season of 2006. Instead, open your arms out for CW!

So, when I first received the CP article about it, first thing that came to mind was, WTF? Rather than trying to save their floundering networks, the two networks, which are owned by CBS and Warner Brothers respectively, will join forces together to be the "5th" network. WEIRD... Slowly, as the day went by, more articles came out, more correspondance w/ my hermano about the subject took place & I started to get scared... Ok, "scared" isn't really the *right* word... Concerned?

Was I going to be able to get CW? Initial reports had the Seattle WB affiliate picking it up... which I don't get. Nor do I get the KTLA, the LA WB affiliate. After some investigation, Hermano found out through Wiki that it'll actually be picked up by Seattle's UPN affiliate... PHEW!

Then it was announced that they would have 30 hours of programming b/n existing UPN & WB shows. Which shows would be picked up? Obviously Gilmore Girls as it is the #1 ranked show on the WB and probably America's Next Top Model as I believe it's UPN's #1 ranked show. But what about all their other shows - in particular, Veronica Mars (*user sings* I'm watching you!!!!!!)? While I could care less about Smallville being renewed, I would like to see Supernatural back for a 2nd season. Sorta like X-Files-ish, which I'm sure the die hard X-Files fan would call blashphemy. Or as CityTV calls it... something or other, but w/ hot guys, which I can't really deny. Jensen Ackles *is* hot!
