The CW Schedule and notes...

[Emperor]

* It looks like thirtysomething Tom Welling will finally get to stop playing Superboy, as “Smallville” has been cast off to Friday nights to die.

 

* "Melrose Place" will follow "90210," just as it did on Fox in the early 1990s.

 

* “Privileged,” the only show on the CW I was still watching, is cancelled.

 

* "Reaper," as expected, is gone as well.

 

* Josh Schwartz’ “Gossip Girl” spin-off, following Serena Van Der Woodsen’s mother and aunt as groupie-ish twentysomethings in 1980s Los Angeles, is not going to series.

 

* “Vampire Diaries,” from “Dawson’s Creek” mastermind Kevin Williamson, takes on "Flash Forward," "Survivor," "SNL Thursday" and "Bones" on Thursdays.

Four months after the tragic car accident that killed their parents, 17-year-old Elena Gilbert (Nina Dobrev, “DeGrassi: The Next Generation”) and her 15-year-old brother, Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen, “Everwood”) are still trying to cope with their grief and move on with their lives. Elena has always been the star student; beautiful, popular and involved with school and friends, but now she finds herself struggling to hide her sadness from the world. As the school year begins, Elena and her friends are fascinated by a handsome and mysterious new student, Stefan Salvatore (Paul Wesley, “Army Wives”). Stefan and Elena are immediately drawn to one another, and Elena has no way of knowing that Stefan is a centuries-old vampire, struggling to live peacefully among humans, while his brother Damon (Ian Somerhalder, “Lost”) is the embodiment of vampire violence and brutality. Now these two vampire brothers ─ one good, one evil ─ are at war for Elena’s soul and for the souls of her friends, family and all the residents of the small town of Mystic Falls, Virginia. Based on the series of books by L. J. Smith, THE VAMPIRE DIARIES is from Alloy Entertainment and Bonanza Productions Inc in association with Warner Bros. Television and CBS Television Studios with executive producers Kevin Williamson (“Dawson’s Creek,” “I Know What You Did Last Summer”), Julie Plec (“Kyle XY,” “Wasteland”), Leslie Morgenstein (“Gossip Girl,” “Privileged”) and Bob Levy (“Gossip Girl,” “Privileged”). Marcos Siega (“Dexter”) directed the pilot.

Thank. God.

Not another "poor vampire" show!  They never explain why the 230 yr old vampire goes to high school either, and why after he's been a student there for 50 years no one notices.

 

Vampires are monsters that need to be killed, that was one reason "The Dresden Files" tv show tanked.

Usually because the vampires aren't really in highschool for 50 years? :P

Damn.  I actually watch this show.  Looks like the final season is coming up.  :-\

Maybe they are dumb vampires that needed to held back.  Don't judge!
