Bad Ratings Mean Less Programming
Filed under: TV News
In perhaps a quiet admission of bad ratings, the CW will be programming only 5 nights a week and giving Sunday night back to its affiliates next season.
A statement from the network reads, "As we plan our 2009-10 fall launch, we are in talks with several of our top affiliate partners about a number of creative and mutually beneficial actions that will build on our growing record of success. These discussions include an evolution of the strategy, which began this season, to focus the CW's resources on Monday through Friday nights. As a result, we are now exploring the transition of Sunday night to our affiliates."

first?
I didn't know they had anything on Sunday's in the first place, lmao
lol silly wording. i love how they try to purposefully make themselves sound as if they are making a strategic move that is a result of their ”successes'. god.
i dont get it…what are they talking about ??
ugh I hate CW
As long as One Tree Hill, 90210, ANTM, and Gossip Girl is coming back on i don't care about the other programs. Well they can axe Gossip Girl it's not the best show, just watch it to pass the time.
I hate the CW they canceled Reba. CW stands for Crap Without Reba!
CW stands for CRAP WITHOUT REBA! hate the CW!
I don't care, I love CW. Love Gossip Girl. Love One Tree Hill and Love America's Next Top Model. They are the little network that could in my book. Hang in there CW.
Re: Iheartjesse – I totally agree with you. I am a One Tree Hill Obsessed fan!!!!
they shouldn't have dropped wwe smackdown then, they had super ratings then.
Bring back the WB!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The CW is shit. They act like they're some major network, when they really aren't. They should fire Dawn Ostroff and then maybe this network will have a chance……Maybe.
They should have never cancelled Veronica Mars.
Seems like that had better ratings when they cancelled it than the shows that are hits on their network now
Too bad…karma karma
Damn…I love the CW….hope none of my shows go under…
GET RID OF CRAP LIKE 90210 AND ONE TREE HILL… and PLAY MORE REAPER!!!!!
It's so sad that these suckers thing that 90210, Gossip Girl, and ANTM are good programming. Fox or NBC or something should pick up REAPER (the only good show on it) and then they can just erase the CW from history!!!
The CW sucks the big one.
