Too hot for TV!
Seeing as how it was so hot in NYC today that the power company, Con-Ed, actually asked people to turn off their air conditioners to save energy, I could hardly bring myself to watch any significant television as of late (though I am going to give The Contender a shot when things cool down). Plus, our livingroom traps heat like Pat Riley in Miami (does that even make sense?).
So in the meantime, I present for you the recently announced launch schedule for The CW:
- 9/20: America’s Next Top Model (special 2-hour premiere) at 8p
- 9/22: Friday Night Smackdown at 8p
- 9/25: 7th Heaven at 8p, Runaway at 9p
- 9/26: Gilmore Girls at 8p
- 9/27: One Tree Hill at 9p
- 9/28: Smallville at 8p, Supernatural at 9p
- 10/1: Everybody Hates Chris at 7p, All of Us at 730p, Girlfriends at 8p, The Game at 830p, America’s Next Top Model (encore) at 9p
- 10/3: Veronica Mars at 9p
- 9/22: Friday Night Smackdown at 8p
It’ll be interesting to see if any of these shows can leave a mark on the networks– I’m hoping they put up a good fight. I like the idea of a major network that isn’t trying to attract everyone– niche programming for the masses if you enjoy oxymorons.
In MMF news, I’m about to post a promised update to the previous story about The Amazing Screw-On Head. Check the comments section.

They’re still making new 7th Heaven episodes? I thought they got canned years ago.
