I'm often baffled by the decisions of network execs because it's so clear sometimes that they don't know what they're doing. For example, I don't think it's smart to switch air times and dates around with the frequency that they do, because people are creatures of habit. Notice that CSI is one of the most popular shows and it's always Thursdays at 9pm? If you're going to switch days, then do something like they did with BtVS in season two, have a two day event with a cliffhanger in the first part to draw people to the next day.

Also, I recall when theWB announced their schedule for this season and they'd paired Gilmore Girls with Supernatural and Smallville with Everwood. I know they wanted established shows on the very competitive Thursday night, but I would have taken the risk and put Supernatural after Smallville immediately. Smallville is the perfect lead-in for it, and Supernatural had success written all over it. I wasn't surprised when they moved Supernatural into the time slot, it just seems silly to not have done that immediately. See, they should hire me!!!

I have more confidence that VM will be returning than about Everwood. VM is well-loved within the industry and by the programmer for the CW. Unfortunately Everwood has always been a quiet show that doesn't get a lot of buzz which doesn't help it in times like these. I worry it will just be passed over, even though it's such a great show.
