I'll be much more interested to know if Supergirl has been renewed — CBS hasn't announced it yet and won't for sure until the 18^th (although even if they drop it it could move to the CW) ...

Supergirl has been renewed for Season 2, but the show is moving from CBS to the CW.

I'm going to be cautionary optimistic about this show . 

My sole reason for watching this probable trainwreck.


(Well I also like the actors for Jason, Dilton, Coach Clayton and a few of the women, but I don't think I'd watch for just them. The first three aren't even going to be on much anyway unless Coach C has an affair with one of the moms...crap I can see it now  )

If I had to have a reason, it would probably be this.
(Cue soundtrack, as Archie sees Geraldine Grundy for the first time, walking down the halls of RHS (slo-mo medium shot as she slinks down the hall, students passing in BG, males stopping, turning heads; intercut with CU inserts of her face, legs, panning up to her breasts, hair flowing, shaking her head seductively), and David Lee Roth intones "I got it BAD, soooo bad... I'm Hot For Teacher!")


But I'm sure I can probably think up plenty of better excuses to look at beautiful women than rubbernecking at a train wreck.
That's like a totally Reggie move. "Oh my god, the humanity! It's a disaster!! Those poor, poor people!"
"Hey, no better place than a disaster scene to offer a comforting shoulder to all the hot chicks sure to be there!"

They still have to cast Mr. Lodge & Mr. Weatherbee & Jughead's parents & Ethel. I wonder if there be Harper?

There might be since they want diversity and they're using other Dan Parent characters like the Kellers and Ginger.

Yes her or the actress who played Ferris Buehler's girlfriend.

Phoebe Cates looks pretty damn good for being over 50.

So, not only is Miss Grundy gonna be much younger and hotter but she is also now the music teacher?

Just one of the many disappointing things about this upcoming show.

So it seems this is going to be a midseason premiere according to the Archie site.


I looked up 'midseason premiere' since I hardly watch tv and found out this means it'll debut early next year, I also found these comments:


Traditionally, having a series get picked up as a mid-season replacement isn't exactly a great show of confidence on behalf of a network. It's the easiest way to get involved with a new show while at the same time undertaking the least possible amount of risk.


As we all know, most American TV programs premiere in the Fall, and any show that isn't launched until the Spring is typically assumed to be a clunker. Most of these shows, deemed "midseason replacements", are intended to just be filler for a few months until the network is ready to roll out their next great series in the next Fall season.


The Midseason Replacement is typically a show network execs don't consider strong enough to premiere at the beginning of a season, but is held in reserve for a premiere later when time slots are needed to be filled after another show has gone belly-up. Since the midseason replacement is considered to be a weaker show than what the network was originally hoping for, expectations often aren't very high.


  I hadn't realized till I read this that a part of me was hoping the show would succeed, but I might as well stop hoping. So that if it does succeed it can be an incredible surprise!

At least it gives us something to look forward to.
