Nine will show The Original. They’ve paid for it.
At worst it would be bumped an hour and replaced with repeats of TBBT.
But its on over summer on a secondary channel, which is a fairly low bar.
It’s cool Go are showing The Originals and will have first dibs on Reign as well, but after they screwed over Aus fans of the TVD show, by onselling it to Foxtel, thus forcing them to seek other ways to watch it (and still don’t even screen TVD on their on channel), will they stick with it, or onsell it.
If Reign is distributed by WB (most likely) then Go! would be most likely. If CBS is distributing it then Eleven. Or it could be on-sold to Fox 8.
Reign and Tomorrow People both getting renewed could depend on how many new shows CW want to make next year.
Hart of Dixie will probably get at least 16 eps for Syndication.
Assuming The Originals fails on GO! does that make it likely they won’t try The Tomorrow People.
I think we could afford to be a little more positive?
Which Network is Reign gonna be on?
I’ve been watching both The Tomorrow People and Reign and they are both thoroughly entertaining in their own ways.
Reign apparently isn’t very historically accurate but that doesn’t really bother me as the acting and storyline is quite good. Just as long as these shows keeps me entertained then that’s all I care about. I hope TTP and Reign get picked up here for FTA as they would be perfect for GO! or Eleven.
Another version of Tomorrow People, I wonder how going to compare with 1970’s version. I just thought last version was bad. Well good luck all those Aussies out there.
