Question: Is there any truth to the rumor that
Reba might be picked up by another network, after its shabby treatment by the CW? Even in a terrible time slot, the show did well. We loyal fans would follow it to a new network, and on, say, CBS (a much better fit), it could attract millions more. Do you think there's a chance?
Answer: I'm not surprised by the rumors, but I doubt there's anything to it. This is not an inexpensive show, with 125 episodes under its belt after six seasons, more than enough for syndication. While
Reba would have been a better fit on CBS than on either the WB or especially the CW, that didn't happen and it isn't likely to. Just be glad that it's going out with some dignity, with the series finale on Feb. 18. Well done, Reba.
