Finally, Body Politic gets a mention. From Kristin at eonline - apparently it's "not dead yet" and there is a mid-season possibility. Here's the link: http://www.eonline.com/uberblog/watch_w ... mpire.html

Thanks, Red. There is still hope...

I hate how the bloggers keep referring to BP as BAG's show.. He's a hunk, but he's no JD!!

I'm betting Body Politic is going to be a midseason replacement. But I guess we'll find out for sure tomorrow!

Oh wouldn't that be so cool??????? I mean cooler if it would go ahead and air in the fall, but it seems pretty certain that a couple of those CW shows will be a bomb... so he'll get to come back by mid-season and that's great!!!!!!!

No mention of Body Politic. Not a good sign, me thinks. Since the CW will only have original programming for 5 nights (they gave up weekends), they don't have many slots to fill with new shows.

Between this show and Three Rivers, I've got ulcers and will likely have to detox from all the tums and malox by the end of May.

Think of all the calcium you have consumed....you will be walking tall for years to come.... All for our gorgeous men.

Yay Jason!!..

When does CW do their formal announcement?

[allegrita]

Ah, Lucy, thank you for putting such a positive spin on our ulcer-prevention regimen. I do feel strong and tall these days...and hopeful for Jason's show.

[Lilly]

Yay Jason!!..

When does CW do their formal announcement?

The upfronts for CW are tomorrow -- Thursday, 5/21.

[Overdamoon]

Thanks Lilly. Hopefully, the bloggers can tell us sooner.

Update from Nikki: She hadn't mentioned anything about midseason yet.

Here's the full schedule, as posted by Nikki Finke (link in ODM's post above):

THE CW 2009/2010 PRIMETIME SCHEDULE

MONDAY
8PM GOSSIP GIRL
9PM ONE TREE HILL

TUESDAY
8PM 90210
9PM MELROSE PLACE

WEDNESDAY
8PM AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL
9PM THE BEAUTIFUL LIFE

THURSDAY
8PM VAMPIRE DIARIES
9PM SUPERNATURAL
9PM AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL Encore

FRIDAY
8PM SMALLVILLE

Regarding Sunday's programming, I refer you to this recent CW statement:
“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. This would provide a new revenue opportunity for the stations, while at the same time expanding upon our successful weekday strategy from this year, which resulted in ratings growth among our target audience.”

No real surprise there. But, damn, I was sure hoping for a surprise.

What are these people thinking?? They moved Smallville to Fridays?? And are doing an Encore of ATM instead of Body Politic????


I. Don't. Get. It.
