The CW is the product of the merger of The WB and UPN. The CW is a national broadcast network in the United States. Its acronym comes from the first letters of CBS Corporation and Warner Bros. Entertainment. Shows originating from The WB and UPN have migrated to The CW, as well as some new pilots being developed specifically for the network (or pilots developed for CBS that were not picked up by that network).

[edit] History

[edit] Before the 2006–2007 Television Season

During the 2006–2007 upfronts, it was revealed that The CW only had two new shows set to premiere in the fall, one of which is a spinoff of a current show. Another two new shows were set to premiere during midseason, but one of them, Hidden Palms, was pushed to the summer. In a surprising move, The CW opted to renew low-rated One Tree Hill over the higher-rated and more acclaimed family drama Everwood, possibly in an effort to appeal to younger viewers, which is a target demographic One Tree Hill achieves that Everwood does not.

[edit] 2006-2007 Television Season

The only new drama launched by The CW, Runaway, was cancelled after only three episodes. At the 2007–2008 upfronts, cult and critic favorite Veronica Mars was not renewed. Also cancelled were long-running shows Reba, Gilmore Girls and 7th Heaven.
