  2. Supernatural and Vampire Diaries for sure..
    I don't watch any of the others,but I'll go with Ringer because at least I know that it has people who can act and Gossip Girl.I've only watched a couple of seasons,but I know it has a pretty big fanbase and they deserve a final season.
    From the new ones,Arrow and The Selection,which gets my vote only because the plot is somewhat similar to The Hunger Games.

  3. Just Cult and turn the entire network into some weird meta show 

    ReplyDelete
  4. Ringer, SPN, Cult, and Beauty and the Beast. I couldn't decide on others.

    ReplyDelete
  5. RINGER RINGER RINGER RINGER ! Best show of THE CW EVER :D

    ReplyDelete
  6. The Vampire Diaries is just good business sense, since it's the network's top show.  I'd also keep Supernatural, and not just because I'm biased  ;)  They've got a strong fan base that could carry it through at least one final season.  I'm also going to put Ringer on the list, just because I think it's severely under-appreciated.  It's a great show with a lot of potential!

    ReplyDelete
  7. Vampire Diaries, Secret Circle (with a lot of changes in the writers room!), Supernatural (even if I never watch it).
    Then Cult, Beauty and the Beast, Arrow (even if I won't watch myself) as new shows. May be The Selection.

    ReplyDelete
  8. NIKITA!!! SPN of course, RInger cos I flove SMG, Arrow, cult.

    ReplyDelete
  9. Ringer & Nikita. Don't care about the rest.

    ReplyDelete
  10. SPN, TVD, HoD, Nikita, are the only ones I would miss if they were gone.  New ones Arrow, Beauty and the Beast, Cult, The Selection.  NO REALITY SHOWS AT ALL.  I stll need 2 more for the week so guess Ringer( but for me the acting is so bad in this show and they are not using Jason Dohring nearly enough), & Secret Circle, a show I really wanted to like, but just can not get involved with any of the characters, just don't care what happens to them.  I like shows that can make me laugh or cry with the characters and have cried buckets with and for SPN & TVD.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Vampire Diaries, Cult, 90210. Arrow without Justin Hartley is not a Green Arrow tv show.

    ReplyDelete
  12. This is a great idea for a poll! I went with keeping more old shows than trying out new ones; Supernatural, Nikita, Gossip Girl, TVD, Secret Circle, Ringer, 90210. I'd let Hart of Dixie die, for sure. The only new shows I'd pick are Beauty and the Beast,  Arrow, Shelter, and The Selection.

    ReplyDelete
  13. This is only what I would do based on the CW picking up 5 Bew Dramas for the Fall

    -I don't really car which New Shows they pick up so just place any 5 in the designated time slots
    -TVD is the nets biggest lead in therefore will lead out a new show
    -SC will move to another night at the moment I say Friday because I see Nikita being cancelled and I don't think SC is a good enough lead in. 
    -GG gets a final 13 episode order to air mid season same as OTH 
    -90210's ratings are good enough to warrant another season esp with how close it is to syndication
    -SPN's ratings are good enough to warrant another season 
    -New shows should be paired together on Monday and Tuesday the nets weakest 2 nights and they should not be paired with weak existing shows as lead ins or anchors.

    Monday
    8-New Drama
    9-New Drama

    Tuesday
    8-New Drama
    9-New Drama

    Wednesday
    8-ANTM (2 cycles)/Gossip Girl (13 Episodes)
    9-90210

    Thursday
    8-The Vampire Diaries
    9-New Drama

    Friday
    8-The Secret Circle
    9-Supernatural

    ReplyDelete
  14. Oh yeah that would be interesting to watch :)

    ReplyDelete
  15. I would keep all the shows that are S2 and above and add the cult and Beauty and the Beast and maybe  the Selection as well

    ReplyDelete
  16. vampire diaries and hart of dixie and then i wouldnt care what else!

    ReplyDelete
  17. If I were The CW I'd cancel everything and use the budget on all the shows to pick up Fringe from Fox and air that. 

    ReplyDelete
  18. SPN, Nikita, TVD, Ringer, maybe new show, like Beauty and The Beast.

    ReplyDelete
  19. I would keep TVD, Supernatural, 90210 and ANTM because they are the highest in ratings. I would keep Heart of Dixie because before the hiatus it was starting to move up in the ratings. I would keep Nikita because I like it, even though the ratings should kill it.  I would try Cult, Arrow, Beauty and the Beast for the supernatural/comic book/fantasy elements. I would pick Shelter because it sounds light and a little like the old WB shows.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Since I don't watch any show apart from Supernatural and Vampire Diaries on The CW, I can only choose the two. 

    ReplyDelete
  21. Ringer and Supernatural... They are the only two that I watch :)

    ReplyDelete
  22. Don't go by me,i haven't watched one show that is on the CW,and i don't see that changing in the near future!

    ReplyDelete
  23. I choose one out of twelve. The only show worth watching and the only one I tune in for.  The rest are like watching repeats of the same thing over and over with different faces in the parts.  

    ReplyDelete
  24. Sarah Michelle Gellar (Pretty sure I spelt it wrong) she's the star actress on the show, Ringer.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Ringer, Nikita =D I love this show !!!

    ReplyDelete
  26.  oh ok... I am surprised I didn't catch that myself... I am a huge Buffy fan!

    ReplyDelete
  27. Supernatural, Vampire Diaries, and Nikita for sure. Joey Dakota should be given a chance the Cult one too. Not sure or do not care about the rest. 

    ReplyDelete
  28. The vast majority are only voting on the shows they like rather than the shows they think would do well. Otherwise ANTM would have far more votes.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Honestly, I'd kill everything they've got except "Supernatural" and "The Vampire Diaries." Overall the CW has the worst, cheesiest collection of shows currently airing.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Looks like a lot of voters would

    ReplyDelete
  31. Vampire Diaries and Supernatural are my favorite on the channel (one  way obv more than the other lol), but I still enjoy Gossip Girl too. I would keep around Secret Circle, Nikita, and Ringer because even tho I don't watch those, they seem interesting and add a new dynamic to the CW. All the other current shows are tired and boring. As for new shows, I would def add Arrow to fill the Smallville void and would love to see The Carrie Diaries

    ReplyDelete
  32. Ignore the percentages in all the spoilertv polls, they are all wrong.

    There must be a way to set up these polls so they show the correct percentages.  I can't believe that PollDaddy (with all their options) wouldn't have an option to display the percentage based on the number of voters, not the number of votes.

    ReplyDelete
  33. I dont really Mind the other shows.. as long as Nikita is in there. I would love ringer to survive too.. but with those ratings i dont have faith it will=/

    ReplyDelete
  34. What's wrong with them? They all look correct to me

    ReplyDelete
  35. Sorry, I edited my post about the time you responded.  The percentages are based on the number of votes.  They should be based on the number of voters.

    ReplyDelete
  36. I don't think polldaddy has that, plus people would then say that those percentages were wrong :)

    ReplyDelete
  37. SPN, TSC, Nikita and Ringer! I don't know what to think about GG... xD it should end this season with a Dair finale and that's it! hahaha

    ReplyDelete
  38. But they wouldn't be wrong.  The percentages in this poll are meaningless, you might as well not even show them.

    Currently it shows 12.8% for Vampire Diaries.  What does that mean? Absolutely nothing.

    It should show probably something like 90% which would tell us that the vast majority of people think it should get renewed.  If the actual number was 40%, then we would know most people didn't even think that the most popular show on CW was worth renewing.

  41. These polls could give us 2 pieces of useful information.

    1. The number of votes each item receives.

    2. The percentage of people who vote for each item.

    Right now we only get #1.  #2 is far more useful information.

    The 12.8% is redundant information.  It is just a repeat of the number of votes, in a different form.  That is fine in a poll where you can only vote on 1 item.

    The problem in a poll like this is that some people vote on 1 item and some vote on as many as 11.  If the percentages were based on the number of voters then that variance would be reflected in the percentages.

    If you tell someone that 12.8% of the votes were for TVD.  What possible useful information does that give them?

    ReplyDelete
  42. i get what you mean but its a polldaddy issue

    ReplyDelete
  43. There must be a way in polldaddy to show the correct percentages.

    Polldaddy is definitely counting the number of voters.  That is the number that should be used in the calculation rather than total votes.  If you are using AJAX, it should be very easy to make the change.

    If you are selecting options from a list, there must be an option there somewhere because that is the way the vast majority of pollers would want the results displayed.

    These polls would be a lot cooler with the right %s.  I really hope you can find a way to change it.

  44. Sarah Michelle Gellar, aka Buffy

  45. Ringer,supernatural,90210,The vampire diaries

  46. I've put far too much thought into this considering I have less a chance of ever being asked my opinion by the CW than Dean and Sam have of getting a happy ending.  Quite honestly, I would not want to be in Pedowtiz's shoes right now.  Trying to turning around a half-submerged ship and get her floating again in the middle of the ocean seems like an impossible task.  Plus there's the fact that conventional TV wisdom may not apply when things are this dire.  Conventional wisdom says pair new shows with current ones and never put a new show on a Friday unless you want to get rid of it.  I'm not sure that will work for next season.  So here's my TV head choices based on business and not by any means on personal choice.

    Gossip Girl and 90210 each get a 13 episode final season, sharing a slot.  Personally I think the sooner the CW is no longer associated with GG the better but this show still has one of the best per ad prices on the CW unless something changes big time at upfronts this year.  It also has huge iTunes sales and good DVR ratings.  As for 90210, it is doing better than most shows ratings wise and it gives them a few more episodes for syndication negotiation.  Plus, both GG and 90210 are in-house productions so there is the Netflix factor.

    Speaking of, I would take a good portion of that billion dollar Netflix contract to use on network, more than show, promotion and to add extra shows in attempt to limit reruns.  CW needs a promotion blitz to coincide with an image update.  Therefore, I would get rid of 1/2 my current slots and target a slightly older age group.  If I have to choose between this crop of pilots that will be difficult so I would look at a couple last minute pilot orders.  I would add a comedy night and more reality TV and a game show as schedule spackle.  The fact is that the CW needs to have fewer reruns to increase its ratings.  (Yes, I hate reality as much as the next person, but the simple fact is that they are very cheap to make and if you stumble upon a hit, it can carry several of your other shows.)

    Here's what my schedule would be:

    Mondays:  90210 & Gossip Girl / Carrie Diaries
    Tuesdays:  new comedy night (4 half hour sitcoms heavily promoted)
    Wednesdays:  move ATNM to first hour & have Cult as 10 episode midseason & then ANTM again / Secret Circle with The Selection as 10 episode midseason but change the premise so it's more a survival story to capitalize on Hunger Games - goal = no reruns on Wednesdays during whole season
    Thursdays:  Vampire Diaries / Arrow  - expect this to be biggest night
    Fridays:  reality TV (some ghost hunter/cryptid type show) / Supernatural

    Hold Beauty and the Beast and Shelter in case something fails or use as summer fare.  Have a cheap game show for the same reason.

    ReplyDelete
  47. "Gossip Girl" will get a 13 episode final season, with a new show replacing its time-slot in midseason. 

    Monday
    8-Gossip Girl / Hart of Dixie
    9-Hart of Dixie / Shelter

    Tuesday
    8-The Secret Circle
    9-Arrow

    Wednesday
    8-America's Next Top Model
    9-Cult

    Thursday
    8-The Vampire Diaries
    9-Beauty and the Beast

    Friday
    8-Nikita
    9-Supernatural

    I think either "Beauty and the Beast" or "Cult" should be paired with "Vampire Diaries". If "Shelter" gets picked up CW should really keep "Hart of Dixie" cause those should would go well together. I'd use Supernatural or Nikita to launch "Arrow" but given that both shows are on Friday, and I can't see the CW moving them to a different night nor can I see them putting a freshmen series on Friday night either. 

    There is also a possibility that "90210" will be back.

    ReplyDelete
  48.  I would choose Supernatural not fussy on the rest

    ReplyDelete
  49. TVD, Nikita and i would try new reality. all others r crap or sound crap.

    ReplyDelete
  50. LOL at CW picking up FOX show...

    ReplyDelete
  51. Aw, this question is unfair.  They haven't even cast these pilots yet.  Can we come back to this in April before the upfronts?

    I will say this - If I'm acting as an executive for the CW and not a fan, I don't pickup Hart of Dixie or Ringer.  Both shows are very enjoyable but the network already seems dead set on renewing one ratings albatross for next season (Gossip Girl).  The network can't afford another one, let alone two.  Even The Secret Circle is an iffy pickup.  A renewal should be dependent on the strength of their pilots and if they do pick up a second season, The CW should consider retooling the show.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Supernatural should've been cancelled after season 5's Swan Song. Now they just have to renew it until they can find the same level of appropriate and satisfying ending... and since they'll never be able to. I suggest this show to run 'til Jared & Jensen are starting to get crows feet. 

    ReplyDelete
  53. monday: New girly show then gossip girl (or 90210 which ever is normally on mondays)
    tuesday: Hart of Dixie and new girly show
    thursday: vampire diaries, secret circle and nikita
    friday: Arrow and Supernatural

    ReplyDelete
  54. To be honest, I really only pick Supernatural and Hart of Dixie.  If Klaus gets more time, Vampire Diaries.  The story line is getting old fast.The rest, I guessed on.

  57. As long as Nikita and Supernatural are renewed, I'm good.

    ReplyDelete
  58. None, never watched any show from that network

    ReplyDelete
  59. Supernatural and Nikita. Can't make a decision on any of the pilots until I know a bit more about them.

    ReplyDelete
  60. The Vampire Diaries, Secret Circle, Hart of Dixie definitely. I heard only good things about Nikita, so that, too. Supernatural & Gossip Girl back for the final season (GG as midseason replacement, 13 episode order). That leaves room for the 5 new shows, and IMO they should be Cult, Arrow, The Carrie Diaries, The Selection and Joey Dakota (final two look like the shows that will fail unless perfectly executed, and since this is CW I am expecting hilarious failures on both fronts).

    ReplyDelete
  61. Honestly there's only 4 I would say ... Vampire Diaries, Secret Circle, Ringer, and Nikita

    ReplyDelete
  62. TVD, Ringer and Nikita because they are the only shows that they aren't directed at little girls.  I appreciate the CW only for these shows. I would also vote Supernatural, but, now, it clears that it has a 8^ season only for fans.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Nikita!
    If only it was on a different network!
    CW's promotion sucks!

    ReplyDelete
  64. I typically watch 1.5 hours of TV a week, Supernatural and The Soup so I am not TV executive material at all but I voted for Supernatural and Vampire Diaries since they seem to keep the CW afloat with viewers.

    ReplyDelete
  65. definitely Nikita CW's best show

    ReplyDelete
  66. The only 2 CW shows I still watch are Vampire Diaries and Hart of Dixie, so I want those to stay. In reality, from a ratings point of view, I'd keep Vamp Diaries and Supernatural and hope the new pilots are fantastic, as all the other ratings really, really suck.

    ReplyDelete
  67. The only one I know of that's cast is Cult which has cast Alona Tal as the lead. Worth a look considering it's premise. The only two current shows I see as sure things are Vampire Diaries and Supernatural. They'll probably pick up Secret Circle since one freshman show always gets a pass and it's the only one that seems to hold any kind of viewers. Out of the rest, I'd say they pick up Arrow (it's a superhero. They want another Smallville, so yeah I can see this one going all the way) and the one that's going to cash in on the Hunger Games mythology (is that Shelter? or The Selection?) America's Top Model is probable so that leaves 3 hours yet to program. I agree they probably won't pick up Ringer or Heart of Dixie simply because of ratings and I'm guessing Nikita is a goner for the same reason. 90210 probably holds on for 1 more year and Gossip Girl maybe, but it's in the cellar with Nikita for ratings, and has already hit the magic 100 episodes, so who knows.

    ReplyDelete
  68. just know that sarah*you are unhappy*I am a man in love with you for 19 years*31 years old*I'll be the USA*you marry me*You'll want it*do not forget this is my true love sarah michelle

  69. Why u all think they will have 11 shows next year?

    ReplyDelete
  70. Who in their right mind would renew Nikita ?

    I've heard good things about it but you guys realize it's the lowest-rated scripted show on the network, right ? Hell even it's DVR ratings suck.

    ReplyDelete
  71. Nikita! <3 TVD, SPN & TSC ofc! Don't care about the rest..

    ReplyDelete
  72. Nikita is the best show the CW got. Huge international and the critics all agree it is amazing. Nikita is a keeper!

    ReplyDelete
  73. After The Vampire Diaries I primarilly care about Nikita.The CW Is crazy If they think another
    show will do better than Nikita on Friday nights.Nikita 0.5 In Demo Is similar to what some other shows get.It's the overall numbers which puts Nikita at end of the block.

    If CW cancles Nikita and puts The Secret Circle on fridays next season It will be same story.They won't be doing much better.I still think chance of Nikita getting another season.Yes odds are more It will get axed but It's not 100 percent It will get axed.

    With all the ads I see for ringer whenw atching the CW I am thinking they might get renewed.In past shows with more promation(save Smallville which was treated as stepchild by the CW) tend to get renewed.I bet Gossip Girl will most likely come back even If It Is only a final 13 episode season like One Tree Hill.I also have suspecion 90210 will get axed.Compared to Ringer I am starting to see almost nothing for Hart of Dixie.So don't be shocked If Hart of Dixie Is axed and Ringer renewed.

    ReplyDelete
  74. It's extremely likely that Nikita's ratings will fall next year, as that happens for 90% of the scripted shows. So putting Secret Circle on Friday, which I agree will most likely score around 0.5/0.6 each week, is still a better option than keeping Nikita as it would score below 0.5...

    ReplyDelete
  75.  no it is not because you said it yourself TSC would also fall it gets 0.7 now on a friday it would get 0.5 and it is a freshman show Nikita is a 2nd year show going into a 3rd with more posibility for syndication deals.

    Chris is right it wouldn't make any sense to move TSC to fridays over Nikita. And it will most like fall even lower than Nikita because it such a young viewers show it would lose more viewers on a friday than Nikita.

    ReplyDelete
  76. I don't know about new shows, so Ringer, Nikita, Supernatural and Vampire Diaries.

    ReplyDelete
  77. The Vampire Diaries and Supernatural for sure. Don't know anything about most of listed shows.

    ReplyDelete
  78. sarah, please*self and me*Take a chance*Do it for Charlotte*I'm begging you*my real love sarah michelle gellar

    ReplyDelete
  79. Vampire Diaries, Supernatural and I'll give Cult a chance.

    ReplyDelete
  80. If they Nikita gets cancelled I hope the USA network would pick it up and put it with Burn Notice

    ReplyDelete
  81. Arrow is going to suck the big one, trust me, the DCU is in a horrible place right now...

    ReplyDelete
  82. maybe all the shows on the CW should only have 13 episodes, to get the writers to really weed all the unnecessary filler and just make every show have sense of urgency and build up tension and have like sneak peak episodes in the summer... I guess what I am suggesting is more of something like along the lines of what ABCF, FX and USA (all in my top five non-subscription cable channels) do, it seems to work for them.

    ReplyDelete
  83. I assume it's for reality shows that have shorter cycles and mid season starts or 13 episode "Final Seasons". 

    ReplyDelete
  84. Ringer, Vampire Diaries, Gossip Girl, Hart of Dixie.
    I like the sound of The Selection and Arrow.

    ReplyDelete
  85. I pray your love was*your eyes, love wine*you *my real love sarah michelle gellar
