well done c w The Originals Renewed
The writing was one the wall pretty early with both of them. Since The CW is a mash up of CBS and Warner, they have to keep a balance of shows from both, four shows were canceled, 2 CBS produced 2 Warner produced. Hey look at that, four new shows picked up ... that's right 2 are CBS and 2 are Warner. The real surprise was the pick up for The Originals, the numbers were low even by CW standards, not sure if that delecate balance came into play or not.
I have to admit, I'm somewhat bummed that Frequency and No Tomorrow got cancelled. Given how Frequency ended its first season, it's understandable though, I was kinda hoping the writers had something in mind for a second season if it was granted a second one. Oh well.
