And we’re off to good news again.
As expected by many, even though the ratings didn’t really reflect it, The CW has now officially renewed “Nikita” for a shortened fourth season. And if what I hear is correct, it’ll be a very short season – 6 episodes. But that is yet to be confirmed. 10 episodes is another number that comes up.
Also getting another season is “Sex & The City” spinoff “The Carrie Diaries”, which got renewed for 13 episodes, and is expected to launch in midseason again.

Hello Folks
The CW has just issued its first series orders.
Four dramas have made the cut so far - “Tomorrow People”, starring Robbie Amell, Medeleine Mantock, Mark Pellegrino and Peyton List, which tells the story of several young people from around the world who represent the next stage in human evolution, possessing special powers, including the ability to teleport and communicate with each other telepathically. Together, they work to defeat the forces of evil. And “The 100”, starring Isaiah Washington and Henry Ian Cusick, which is set 97 years after a nuclear war has destroyed civilization. A spaceship housing the lone human survivors sends 100 juvenile delinquents back to Earth to investigate the possibility of re-colonizing the planet.

Another struggling drama has just been pulled off life support.
The CW has officially canceled its low-performing medical drama “Emily Owens, M.D.” after the show failed to improve its poor ratings, several sources report.

Catherine and Vincent are here to stay – at least for now.
The CW has picked up its freshman drama “Beauty And The Beast” for a full season of 22 episodes, this after the show has constantly improved its ratings – and has gotten stronger with each episode, to be honest.

The CW brings Carrie Bradshaw back to TV very early next year.“The Carrie Diaries”, which takes a look at the “Sex and the City” center lady in her early-80s days, will premiere on Monday, January 14, at 8 PM ET. On the same night, “90210″ is moving to its new timeslot of 9 PM ET.

The CW is not ready to give up on “Nikita” yet.
The show, which has dropped to an abysmal 0.2 demo rating for its second episode on October 25, and slightly improved to a 0.4 with its latest outing, saw many avid fans fearing for a cancellation in the wake of the sharp ratings drop. And many, probably not without merit, blamed “Nikita”‘s new time-slot behind “America’s Next Top Model” for it.
And The CW is now doing something about it, and only one more episode will have to survive Friday at 9 PM.
On Friday, November 16, “Nikita” will take a break for the two-hour finale of the current “ANTM” cycle. But from November 23 and on, “Nikita” will get its old slot of 8 PM back, which will lead into a repeat of “Arrow”. Let’s hope it helps.
Hurricane Sandy is coming – and original series episodes are fleeing the scene.
CBS has announced today that there will be no original episodes of its Monday lineup. Comedies “How I Met Your Mother”, “Partners”, “2 Broke Girls” and “Mike & Molly” will air repeats instead, and the planned all-new episode of “Hawaii Five-O” at 10 PM has been pre-empted with a CBS News Special Report on Hurricane Sandy.

After an intense news day which was pretty much all about Emmy night, here are some other things that transpired.
- ABC Family has announced that Teri Polo (“The West Wing”) and Sherri Saum (“In Treatment”) have been cast in ABC Family’s drama pilot “The Fosters”, which is executive produced by Jennifer Lopez. It tells the story of Stef and Lena Foster, a mixed race couple who are raising a biological son, along with several adopted children. When Lena decides to take in Callie, a troubled teen with an abusive past, Callie’s disruptive ways threaten to turn the Fosters lives upside down.
Polo will portray Stef Foster, a tough but kind police officer who is not eager to add to their already large brood, but soon realizes her family may be Callie’s best hope for a better life. Saum will portray Lena Foster, an altruistic school principal, who is determined to save as many kids as she can and agrees to take in Callie without Stef’s knowledge.
