Question: I've been reading some of the comments about the new CW, and one question came to mind: If you think about it, both
Everwood and
Reba could fit well on the CBS network. They appeal to broader audiences than the typical UPN/WB shows and have good "red state" (yes, I know you are sick of these "red state"/"blue state" analogies, but it fits here) feels to them, as do many CBS shows (
NCIS,
Ghost Whisperer, etc.). What do you think?
Answer: When
Reba first premiered, I thought the very same thing, that it would have been an even better fit on CBS. Still feel that way. I'd much rather watch
Reba than the anemic
Still Standing. But I can't imagine either WB show making the jump from a defunct weblet to the No. 1 network — certainly not
Everwood (CBS' recent track record with traditional family dramas has been dismal). Still, good observation.
