It is quite strange to see a female-oriented prime-time lineup on WGN and other Trib stations with a syndicated lineup of "Two and a Half Men" and "Family Guy". This fall on Channel 9, it's "Tyra" at 4 and "Millionaire" at 5 (assuming "Millionaire" keeps that slot) and local news at 5:30? A train wreck of a schedule in the making.T Doghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11829971495020996664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31412716.post-47171232625944295352009-02-25T14:04:00.000-06:002009-02-25T14:04:00.000-06:00I absolutely agree with your "thoughts" ...I absolutely agree with your "thoughts" about the CW. The only good shows on there are "Smallville," "Supernatural," and "Reaper." Hopefully, "Reaper" will do well when it returns starting next week and will be renewed for next season too. I'm just wondering how much longer Sam Zell and Tribune will stick with the CW, given the low ratings it gets and the way the network's shows seem out of place with Tribune's stations schedules, such as WGN-TV. I'm sure those CW viewers do not stay to watch WGN News at Nine. Channel 9 would do better by getting the Bulls, Cubs, and White Sox games it shipped over to WCIU-TV to help fill in prime time holes. If Channel 9 does have the Chicago rights to repeats of "Star Trek: The Next Generation" for next fall, that show would be a better prime time vehicle on the Tribune station. Given this poor economy, I can't see the CW lasting too much longer. At least, Zell & Company were wise to get the CW off their San Diego station last fall in exchange for Fox programming. But that sort of swap can't happen here in Chicago. Though, I could see the CW landing on WCIU-TV Channel 26 if WGN ever parts ways with the network. Poor WCIU!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
