Smallville Official Renewal

[Eiram]

The CW has unveiled its new logo and came clean about which shows stay and which shows go.



Their Fall 2006 schedule will consist of 12 returning series - six from UPN and six from the WB - as well as three new pilots. The WB shows making the leap to The CW are "Smallville", "7th Heaven", "Gilmore Girls", "Beauty and the Geek", "Supernatural" and "One Tree Hill". While from the UPN "All of Us", "Girlfriends", "Veronica Mars", "WWE Smackdown", "America's Next Top Model" and "Everybody Hates Chris" are all making the cut.

"7th Heaven", "Gilmore Girls", "Veronica Mars", "America's Next top Model", "Smallville", "Supernatural" and "Smackdown" are each expected to remain in their current time periods with the four comedies "Everyone Hates Chris", "All of Us", "Girlfriends" and "The Game" shifting to Sundays starting at 8:00/7:00c.

The official announcement will take place today in New York at the CW's upfront presentations.

Woohoo!

I haven't been able to find the schedule anywhere. Does anyone know what Smallville will be paired with next season?

[Jess]

Since it said Smallville and Supernatural are staying in their current slots I am guessing Supernatural is still going to follow Smallville

New CW mixes old and new

By Nellie Andreeva Thu May 18, 5:04 AM ET

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - The fall schedule of the CW, the network that will emerge from the ashes of UPN and WB Network, will be a patchwork of old and new with a comedy block on Sunday and familiar 8 p.m. anchors on Monday-Thursday.


CW entertainment president Dawn Ostroff will give advertisers and the media their first glimpse of the nascent network and its programming strategy Thursday when she unveils its inaugural fall lineup in New York.

In a surprising move, the network Wednesday night gave an eleventh-hour 13-episode order to the WB comedy "Reba," which was presumed to be on the chopping block.

But canceling "Reba," which was in the middle of a two-year contract between WB and producer 20th Century Fox TV, would have been costly for the CW, with sources pegging the penalty at about $20 million, including compensating the studio for lost syndication revenue from the sixth-season episodes that would have not been produced.

"Reba" is the second WB veteran series to get a 13-episode reprieve. Also Wednesday, the network finalized deals with the core cast of "7th Heaven," which recently aired its series finale.

"7th Heaven" will return for an 11th season in its signature Monday 8 p.m. slot. The long-running family drama about Rev. Eric Camden and his clan will be followed at 9 p.m. by another family drama, the new series "Runaway," which centers on a father, wrongfully convicted of murder, who is on the run with his wife and kids.

Also staying put is WB's "Gilmore Girls," which will open Tuesday night for CW at 8 p.m., leading into UPN's fan favorite "Veronica Mars."

UPN's hit reality series "America's Next Top Model" will remain at Wednesday 8 p.m., sharing the slot with WB's reality hit "Beauty and the Geek." The teen-friendly hour will be followed at 9 p.m. by WB's steamy teen drama "One Tree Hill."

WB's successful pairing of sci-fi dramas "Smallville" and "Supernatural" will stay intact on Thursday, while UPN's "WWE SmackDown!" will remain on Friday.

On Sunday, UPN's comedies "Everybody Hates Chris," "All of Us," "Girlfriends" and its spinoff "The Game" will run in a two-hour block along with an hour of recycled CW programming, a page from WB's playbook.

On the CW website www.cwtv.com/index.html there's a montage video of all the shows appearing on the CW. Lots of SV. And I think, it went quick, but after the caption free to laugh they had an image of the Lana in the car before it crashes from Reckoning. Btw, does anyone know how to unstream it and get it to download because it's a cool vid.

Goosebumps when I saw Veronica Mars and Smallville on the same vid.

The CW vid to download.

Thanks to Rob from DTS for unstreaming it.

Gah, no Erica in that video. Makes me mad.

But, this helps a little:

"Thursdays 8/7 C
SMALLVILLE

Returning for its sixth season, this new interpretation of the enduring Superman mythology and its classic characters blends realism and adventure into an exciting action series. Fourteen years ago, a meteor shower burst from the heavens, raining destruction on the unsuspecting citizens of Smallville, Kansas. From the ashes of tragedy, emerged Clark Kent. Struggling to come to grips with his emerging superpowers, while battling the strange events that have plagued this idyllic Midwest hamlet since the meteor shower, Clark slowly learns to embrace his destiny. SMALLVILLE chronicles Clark's journey toward becoming the Man of Steel and his relationship with girl-next-door Lana Lang, future love Lois Lane and soon-to-be arch-nemesis Lex Luthor.

The series stars Tom Welling as Clark Kent, Kristin Kreuk as Lana Lang, Michael Rosenbaum as Lex Luthor, Erica Durance as Lois Lane, Allison Mack as Chloe Sullivan, John Glover as Lionel Luthor and Annette O'Toole as Martha Kent. Reinterpreting the Superman mythology from its roots, SMALLVILLE was developed for television by Alfred Gough & Miles Millar (Shanghai Noon, Spider-Man 2), based on the DC Comics characters. Gough and Millar serve as executive producers, along with Greg Beeman, Ken Horton, Mike Tollin, Brian Robbins and Joe Davola. The series is produced by Tollin/Robbins Productions, Millar/Gough Ink and Warner Bros. Television. Superman was created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Schuster."
