THE CW

Oh my, The CW. It’s not going out on too much of a limb to predict that The CW won’t exist by the end of this decade. It has been in steep decline for years and it’s hard to even say what’s a hit and what’s a miss on this network. “Ringer” ended its season on a series low and “The L.A. Complex” is setting records for tune out. Those seem like safe bets for cancellation. But what about things like the declining “Gossip Girl,” “Nikita,” or “Hart of Dixie”? They can’t cancel EVERYTHING. They have already renewed “The Vampire Diaries,” “Supernatural,” and “90210.” Everything else should be considered on the bubble, but this is a network that never brings out too many pilots. 2 to 3 new ones are normal. Which is good news for fans of Leighton Meester and Rachel Bilson.

Predicted The CW Renewals:

“Gossip Girl”
“Hart of Dixie”
“The Secret Circle”

Predicted The CW Cancellations:

“The L.A. Complex”
“Nikita”
“Ringer”
