    Re: UPN and WB to Combine, Forming New TV Network

    I was gonna post this but I had to hustle out of the house. Anywho it is VERY interesting. I have high hopes for the 5 hour animation block...then again it might just be pseudo anime crap.

    I have a UPN station on my digital package so I hope they pick up this new station. (it's iffy since it's a buffalo affiliate)

      The most significant advantage of bringing the two networks together will be the opportunity to build a prime-time schedule made up of the best shows from each of the two networks. "It's a scheduler's dream," Mr. Moonves said.

      The shows highlighted in the presentation today included "America's Top Model," "Veronica Mars," and "Everybody Hates Chris" from UPN and "Gilmore Girls," "Smallville," and "Beauty and the Geek" from the WB.
      Sweet. Now instead of two channels I have to skip past every time I channel surf, I'll only have to skip past one....

        UPN and WB combining is a scheduler's dream? More like a nightmare. "Yay! Shows no one watched!"

              The only shows I watch on WB are Maury, 8 Simple Rules (before that guy died) and My Wife and Kids (before they screwed it up). I used to also watch Seinfeld everday on it but I guess "How to live better" got there vote instead...

                  John Ritter has become "that guy"?

                    New News:

                    Maury and Tyra Banks have joined forces to have 1 daytime TV show called Taury.

                    On the show, they will only have fat women that dont know who the father of their children is and those children will go to a county jail becuase they abuse their parents.

                      indeed... I'm surprised you know of John Ritter, Giggas. I guess he did a lot of stuff while you were in elementary school right?

                        I used to watch reruns of Three's Company and watched first runs of 8 Simple Rules.

                        He also guest starred on Scrubs as J.D.'s father.

                          Didn't see your post, started my own. I watch SMALLVILLE and EVERWOOD on the WB.

                            Calm down, I couldn't remember his last name. Was great on Threes Company and 8 Simple rules. (didnt know he was on scrubs, though I think he made a guest appearance on law and order)

                              Nothing to do with UPN or WB but still a funny quote. On the WB and UPN I can't even think of the last show I watched on either.
