The CW was recently sold to Nexstar, and that means we will be saying goodbye to a lot of their shows. We know that Riverdale and The Flash are ending with their upcoming seasons. And today, we found out that Nancy Drew will be joining them in The CW graveyard, which is demon-free thanks to The Winchesters. That show better be back next season on whatever the new owners call the channel.
Back to Nancy Drew. “Our hearts are full of gratitude, knowing that we are able to bring this chapter to a close with intentionality, inclusivity and kindness — and of course with plenty of sleuthing twists, supernatural scares and star-crossed romance along the way,” showrunners Noga Landau and Melinda Hsu Taylor said. “We are especially indebted to our wonderful fan community, whose connection with our themes and stories has meant the world to us. Season 4 will be a worthy and resonant payoff for their continued love and support.”
The show is currently filming its last few episodes in Vancouver, and the writers promise, “Don’t worry, #DrewCrew. We’re going out with a bang. Buckle in for a heck of a ride!”
Tonight at 8 on The CW, get to know Family Law. It is a show about a dysfunctional family who works in family law.
Abigail (Jewel Staite) has a little bit of a problem. She drinks too much. So when she throws up in court during a case, she loses her family and her job. The only law firm that will hire her is her father’s (Victor Garber) firm which does family law. Something that Abigail is not familiar with. Therefore, she has her work cut out for her.
Not only in the legal sense but also working with her half-siblings, Daniel (Zach Smadu) and Lucy (Genelle Williams), who she doesn’t know. Their family needs an intervention, but they are too busy with all of their clients.
In an upcoming episode, they will try to help a couple with Down’s Syndrome keep their baby. This episode has more heart than any legal drama I have seen in ages.
So I am hooked, and I have a feeling you will love this series as much as I do. It is the perfect part legal and family drama. But the best part of the show is how enjoyable it is. Check it out, and I am sure you will feel the same way I do.
Have you ever watched a show on The CW and asked yourself, “Am I too old to watch this series?” It turns out you are not.
John Carter, President and COO of Nexstar, who just became the majority stakeholder of the network, said on a conference call the average age of their viewers is 58. It is the younger of the 5 broadcast channels, but it is still an age that is older than us.
So don’t feel guilty watching Dynasty or The Flash because you are a young whippersnapper compared to their other viewers. I feel better! Don’t you?
The CW imported Bump from Australia, and it is as lovable as koalas look, mate. The series that debuts tonight at 8p is about a teenage girl who gives birth even though she didn’t know that she was pregnant.
And that is how the show starts. Oly (Nathalie Morris) is rushed to the hospital with stomach pains, and it turns out she was in labor. Since she didn’t know she was pregnant, she doesn’t have any attachment to her baby. She wants to give it up, but the hospital insists that she takes her daughter home with her for 30 days because that is how they do things there.
Now, she and her recently separated mom (Claudia Karvan) have to figure out a way to raise this baby. That’s right. If Oly didn’t have enough to deal with now, she also has to deal with her parents splitting. Her dad wants to move back in, but her mom is having an affair. I should say, seeing someone new.
This brings us back to who was Oly seeing. She has been dating someone, but he is not the father. The father is Santi (Carlos Sanson Jr), who is more popular than she is. He wants to take responsibility for the baby, but Oly thinks she can do it by herself.
However, she lets him and his family in to get to know the baby. Now his family is her family in more ways than she knows.
In each of the ten episodes, Oly, Santi, and their families try to adapt to this new person in their lives. And we get to see them try to do the best that they can in a difficult situation.
And one thing that is not difficult is watching this show. There is something about it that makes it so enjoyable to watch. I binged it all in one day because I couldn’t stop watching it. I wanted to know what happened next, but I also cared about what happened next.
You cannot help but to fall in love with this show, so watch the first two episodes tonight at 8p and keep coming back for more every Thursday. This way, The CW will import the second and third seasons for us to enjoy.
The Flash is the last of the original DC Universe shows on The CW, so you would think it would last forever. Sadly, its run will literally be coming to an end with this upcoming season.
“Nine seasons! Nine years of saving Central City while taking audiences on an emotional journey full of heart, humor and spectacle. And now Barry Allen has reached the starting gate for his last race,” executive producer/showrunner Eric Wallace said in a statement. “So many amazing people have given their talents, time and love to bring this wonderful show to life each week. So, as we get ready to honor the show’s incredible legacy with our exciting final chapter, I want to say thank you to our phenomenal cast, writers, producers and crew over the years who helped make The Flash such an unforgettable experience for audiences around the world.”
The final season will air in 2023 and only be 13 episodes.
Are you sad to see Barry Allen disappear in a flash?
