The CW and Me....

~I was out of town during the upfronts. While I’m not surprised Tom Welling wasn’t part of the proceedings, I’m surprised neither Jensen or Jared or even Misha Collins was on hand. At least Erica Durance and Justin Hartley held it down for SV

I was missing your great posts!

I find Ian S. and Paul W. two of the most unattractive actors ever! And don't get me started on that Ed what's his name guy! lol

Thank you :)

This is the only good thing about Chad Michael Murray being shitcanned is that the crown to FUGLIEST CW Star goes to Ed by default, followed on the heels by Paul Wesley. I have to leave l'il Ian out because his face is fine IMO,it's just his stank demeanor. Oh, he's probably crowing that he has the SV timeslot, that little punk!

Actually, Erica and Justin weren't in NY at all. Apparently they were representing SV and the CW in Chicago(?). I'm not sure how thats connected, but there it is. I think the guy on stage with his hands in his pockets is on the new Melrose Place show, because he seems to be standing between Katie Cassiday and the Simpson person.

You are so right! D'uh, they did do the interview in Chicago because the guy kept welcoming Justin back home.

How dare I slander Justin with someone who isn't as fit as he is.

I actually skipped the Upfronts this year, every day I kept saying I was going to head to NYC, until Thursday came and i'd missed most of them, and I figured whats the point? the only shows I watch on CW is SV and SPN (which since SV is moving I'm sure i'll forget to watch now) . I still don;t like the idea of SV being on Fridays because i like to watch it live and I'm never home on Fridays, so now I'll have to tivo it, which I imagine I'll get used to, but i like having that special hour in the week that I have to be present for. But Fridays are for hanging with friends I don't see all week so i don't see that changing, even for the hotness that is Tom Welling:D.

I know there are many that find Ian S. hot, but there's something off about him that makes me think he can't carry a show without a strong supporting cast and he doesn't appear to have one. We'll see though, maybe people will watch anything with angsty vampires.

Those must be some special friends :)

I’m curious as to if this show will find an audience. I can’t imagine the “Twilight” fanbase being that deep to embrace a show like that. But then again there are people who love vampire shows.

Re: Where to start...I know Tom!

Does this guy have something in his contract that prohibits him doing promotion for the show? He did bits and pieces in the first 2 years, then he just disappeared. Really Michael (camera whore) and Allison did more SV promotion than the SV promotion staff. This has always irritated me about Tom.

It’s my huge problem with Tom. The cast of SV did a PSA recently for a green campaign-everyone on the cast with the exception of Tom did the PSA. How can you have a lead not doing any kind of promotion? That’s one thing they shouldn’t allow: let him get fat, let him not take off his clothes, but dammit, he needs to get out there talking about his show.

I find it ironic that Ian left SV (with the whole I'm better than this attitude), ended up on Lost, only to be killed off, and ended right back into CW's clutches for a rehash of Twatlight. Honestly, I still don't get the True Blood love, let alone Twatlight.Let my friend tell it, people love shows about vampires. I only liked “Angel” and that had less to do with him being a vampire than

I'm with you on the SV move. I know they think it will do well there, but I really don't. Also, why push so hard for a season 9 when they knew they were planning to put it in such a shitty spot? I feel bad for all those that signed prior to that knowledge.

As for Somerhalder, the dickish vibe I get from him overrides the bit of him I find attractive. While cute, he still looks like such an ass all the time. I just don't get it. Sadly, CW vampire show is doing nothing for me. Neither is Leighton's blond hair for that matter.

Man, I'm just a bowl full of sunshine tonight, aren't I? Thanks for the great picspam, though. :)

Unless Dawn O and Co. had some mean pitch going to Tom (because Allison was already signed through 9), I'm guessing this was a last minute switcheroo. Shows can do well on Friday's but that is never a desired slot. When you're moved to Friday's that's never has been a show of faith move.

He's my most hated combination of a person who thinks they're extremely smarter than most and cooler.

It washes her face out. I don't know why she wanted that color. Does not work on her at all.

Just matches *my* mood actually.
