Still awaiting CW’s Upfronts, but some news came out ahead of time. According to THR.com’s Live Feed, the Chicks Watching network picked up bubble shows One Tree Hill and Life Unexpected. It also picked up the series Hellcats and Nikita.
Nikita will give the network its first non-supernatural action-drama.
The Warner Bros/Wonderland series stars martial arts expert Maggie Q as
an assassin who goes rogue. Hellcats is about a college cheerleading
squad at a Southern university, and is from Bonanza/Warner Bros./CBS TV.
In the case of the two renewals, this confirm rumors that both might return. One Tree Hill just completed its seventh season, while Unexpected is a freshman series. Other shows such as Smallville and Supernatural (the only two shows I give a crap about on this network) have already been renewed, the former for a crazy tenth season.

I got caught up on "Supernatural" on DVD last summer before Season 5 started, and I have to say that the only thing I don't like about watching new episodes is having to catch the ads for every other show on the network. Do the actual episodes of "Smallville" look as cheap as the ads make it out to look? I don't understand how it's the network's flagship show, yet "Supernatural" appears to blow it away visually (and most likely in every other way as well).
comment #1 – Smallville looks expensive. Production design wouldn't look out of place in a movie.
Any reason to keep Dean "God's next on my list" Winchester on the air is fine with me. Thank you for making the upfronts a separate article and not stringing them all together into a visual mess. Keep up the good work Oliver!
