Sarah Michelle Gellar's New Show Heading to CW?

http://insidetv.ew.com/2011/05/13/sarah-michelle-gellar-heading-to-cw/

Buffy may be headed back to her old stomping grounds: The CW (formerly the Warner Bros.-owned WB before it merged with CBS Corp’s UPN) is working on a deal to bring Buffy the Vampire Slayer star Sarah Michelle Gellar to the fifth place network via Ringer, the drama pilot she made for CBS.

CBS passed on the project — rumor has it the networked loved Gellar but only liked the project — so its sister net is now kicking the Ringer tires. The drama is about a troubled young woman (Gellar) on the run who hides out by living the life of her wealthy twin sister, until she learns her sibling’s life has a bounty on it as well.

Gellar starred in Buffy from 1997-2003. The show ran on the WB before it jumped to UPN.

What do you think of this move?

Are you interested in SMG's new show?

It sounded stupid...no wonder CBS dropped it like it's hot

Yeah it does kinda sound stupid but I would give it a chance because I like her.

I think if CW picks it up it would probably last longer though because the shows on their network don't need to get a 10.0 to survive since the best show they have is like in the 3s which is kinda sad..

10.??? You mean viewers??

Broadcast networks don't worry with total amount of viewers anymore. They only concentrate on the key demographic. CBS is probably the only network who cares about overall viewers.

CW gets an average of 0.8 to 1.3 (Which are usually from Smallville and Supernatural)

Like The Office gets like 7 to 8 Million viewers BUT it's average ratings are 2.1/2.3 while the Chicago Code gets about 10 million viewers on CBS BUT in the 19-49 demographic it gets a 1.9 rating...despite getting more viewers than The Office.

Well yeah both of the ratings matter a lot.

If I were a network I would look at both not just one of the two.

But we'll see what this show can get if it does go on CW.

I'd watch it. IDK if I'd like it.

I am a Sarah Michelle Gellar fan, so I'd be tempted to watch it if it comes on while I have nothing else to do. haha
