Mark Pedowitz: The way #TheCW is situated today as a multi-platform player, it will be around for a heck of a long time. #TCA17

— Debra Birnbaum (@debrabirnbaum) August 2, 2017

Picking up #Blacklightning when Fox passed: No-brainer is an "understatement." Pedowitz has wanted to work with Akils for long time. #TCA17

#Riverdale didn't deliver kind of linear ratings Pedowitz hoped for, but it's HUGE (anecdotally) on streaming/Netflix, so he's happy #TCA17 pic.twitter.com/Hd1IPpmcHD

Pedowitz hasn’t given up on hour-long comedies, even though No Tomorrow didn’t work last year. #TCA17

#Dynasty has a built-in audience with the over 45s who know original, but Pedowitz hopes the younger audience will find it, too. #TCA17

Pedowitz wanted a military show - from his time at ABC with #ArmyWives, he thought military shows worked & people like them. #TCA17

Pedowitz on #Valor: it'll be a great soap on top of the military background. #TCA17 #TheCW

— Diane Gordon (@thesurfreport) August 2, 2017

"#Valor is extending the CW brand," Pedowitz says he has wanted to do military on the network for 6 years. This is third attemp. #TCA17

#HootenandtheLady is not getting a Season 2. (UK decision.) #TCA17

— Linda Ge (@lindazge) August 2, 2017

Pedowitz feels #Arrow hit its stride last season. (Now Oliver is a dad & at ComicCon, Amell says Oliver is NOT a good dad. FYI) #TCA17
