The CW Network H-Announce Edited Collection: The CW Network Announcement published by Lisa Perdigao on Friday, June 23, 2017 Type: Call for Papers Date: August 1, 2017 Subject Fields: Communication, Cultural History / Studies, Journalism and Media Studies, Popular Culture Studies Call for Papers: The CW Network The CW network offers a compelling coming of age story reflective of its changing demographic. In 2006, the network was launched as a joint venture of CBS and Warner Bros. Entertainment and next generation to The WB and UPN (1995-2006), which followed Fox’s success and shift in television broadcasting away from the Big Three (ABC, CBS, and NBC) and toward young viewers. The CW’s early programming borrowed from The WB and UPN, airing the final seasons of 7th Heaven (The WB: 1996-2006; The CW: 2006-2007), Gilmore Girls (The WB: 2000-2006: The CW: 2006-2007), and Veronica Mars (UPN: 2004-2006; The CW: 2006-2007) and continuing longer runs withSmallville (The WB: 2001-2006; The CW: 2006-2011), One Tree Hill (The WB: 2003-2006; The CW: 2006-2012), America’s Next Top Model (UPN: 2003-2006; The CW: 2006-2015), andSupernatural (The WB: 2005-2006; The CW: 2006- ). However, in its early years, it also introduced new seriesGossip Girl (2007-2012) and The Vampire Diaries (2009-2017), which helped to define the emerging network and establish its brand identity. The premiere of Arrow in 2012 and expansion of the Arrowverse with The Flash (2014- ), Legends of Tomorrow (2016- ), and acquisition of Supergirl (CBS: 2015-2016; The CW: 2016- ) led to the network’s self-identification as the “destination of superhero television.” Initially marketed as “TV to Talk About,” The CW has redefined itself as “TV Now” (2012), and, most recently, encourages its viewers to “Dare to Defy” (2016), introducing popular and critically- acclaimed programming that reflects the network’s strategies of adaptation and innovation. This collection of essays will examine the past, present, and future of The CW, the series and strategies that have defined and continue to shape the network. Some possible themes or topics include: -Individual series -Programming choices/changes over the years -Trends in programming (e.g., subject matter, narrative structure, casting/diversity, etc.) -Inter/Intratextual references Citation: Lisa Perdigao.

    ‘SAND DOLLAR COVE’ Cast Bios CHAD MICHAEL MURRAY (Brody) – Chad Michael Murray first rose to prominence with fan favorite roles on the Warner Bros. dramas “Dawson’s Creek” and “Gilmore Girls.” He became a household name with his leading role as Lucas Scott in the massive Warner Bros. television hit “One Tree Hill” from 2003-2012, during which he won three Teen Choice Awards. He showcased his talents as a leading actor playing the outcast-turned-cool-kid throughout his near-decade run. He took position behind the camera as well, both writing and directing an episode of the series. Murray is currently in production on the action-thriller Killing Field, starring as Eric, a man whose life on his serene farm is interrupted when a cop and a pair of dangerous criminals shows up. Bruce Willis, Kate Katzman, Donna D’errico, Swen Temmel, and Zack Ward also star. Murray most recently wrapped production on Ted Bundy: American Boogeyman, starring as America’s most infamous serial killer. The film is slated for theatrical release in August 2021 through Fathom Events. He will also be seen in the upcoming “The Fortress” and “The Fortress 2,” also starring Bruce Willis as well as Jesse Metcalfe. Recently, he starred in the television movies “Colors of Love” and “Too Close for Christmas,” both opposite Jessica Lowndes. Murray has also starred in Lionsgate’s 2020 action film “Survive the Night” alongside Bruce Willis; the Hallmark Channel original movie “Write Before Christmas,” alongside Torrey DeVitto; seasons three and four of the hit teen drama “Riverdale,” in which he played an enigmatic cult leader; and as Atticus Virtue in the family sci-fi thriller Max Winslow and the House of Secrets, which told the story of five teenagers who competed to win a mansion owned by entrepreneur and scientist, Virtue.

Full text: Mary Chao Staff writer The parent company of WHAM-TV (Channel 13) has acquired the local CW affiliate, which airs shows such as Girlfriends, Everybody Hates Chris, Smallville and Gilmore Girls. The CW affiliate, WRWB (cable Channel 16), had been a joint venture of Time Warner Cable and Warner Brothers. Now it will be operated by Clear Channel Television's WHAM and will be renamed CW-WHAM, said Chuck Samuels, vice president and general manager of Channel 13, who will head both stations. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. The CW was created when Warner Brothers merged with UPN, taking the "C" from CBS, which owned UPN, and the "W" from Warner. The Rochester station will remain on cable Channel 16 and will also be available as WHAM-DT on digital channel 13.2. Samuels said the station will complement Channel 13. "The CW has a very different target audience," he said. "While most networks such as ABC target (ages) 18 to 49, the CW targets 18 to 34, even 12 to 34." The CW will help WHAM's already established news brand by reaching out to younger audiences, Samuels said. WRWB's operations in downtown Rochester will be consolidated into WHAM's facilities in Henrietta.
