"Plymouth Rock" series on CW for 2010

[jefferiestubes8]

Another soap set on a spaceship like "Defying Gravity". Yes with a young crew in deep space. Sure it will seem like a Starfleet Academy type show. We will surely see flashbacks just like Defying Gravity.
At least it will be some scifi on network TV that is set on a spaceship.. Just like I got excited about Defying Gravity it's scifi without rayguns and space battles on a major network. I'll take it.

Like Defying Gravity, only with an even younger crew and lots of music from hip new pop artists.

 

[Starbreaker]

 

[Supreme Admiral]

Younger crews? Why can't it be older crews!?!

 

[Mr. Adventure]

I can't believe Variety refers to net as C-Dub...

The plot is not exactly my favorite but oh well.

 

[Temis the Vorta]

I'll have to watch that out of morbid interest. This also sounds like a real winner:

"One Tree Hill" exec producer Mark Schwahn is behind "Spy School for Girls," which revolves around female spy trainees at a CIA facility.

Just what the CIA needs, a bunch of Paris Hilton types waterboarding the "unpopular" kids.

I gotta admit, I love how utterly crass and unsubtle the CW can be:

Winner for best title of the new crop: "Bitches in Britches," a family soap set in the equestrian world of Millbrook,

 

[Aragorn]

Younger crews? Why can't it be older crews!?!

Because on The CW, once you've over 30, you're too old to be the editor in chief of a major newspaper, a submarine commander, a five star general, the president of the United States or an astronaut.

 

[Candlelight]

The CW needs to be taken out and shot.

 

[MANT!]

Hmm..
I do think it's been done before...

but without the thumpin hip-hop..

 

[Temis the Vorta]

Everything's been done before. The point is that the CW will do it very, very badly.

However, I guess there's some logic to the idea that, if you want to repopulate the human race, you would fill your spaceship with the usual CW cohort: vapid young ladies whose chief interests are competing with each other and romantic/sexual entangelments, ensuring high fertility rates and ruthless survival skills that will be passed on to future generations. God help us all.

 

[Aragorn]

The CW brought back 90210 and Melrose Place, but next year they're going in a different direction and bringing back The West Wing, with Zac Efron as the President, Miley Cyrus as the Secretary of Defense and Haylie Duff as the Speaker of the House.

 

[roguephoenix]

so... it will be space 90210? crap!

 

[Supreme Admiral]

Younger crews? Why can't it be older crews!?!

I'm telling you, the cw won't last longer.

 

[Dorian Thompson]

Yes, but isn't it a comfort to know that all the female crewmembers will be young, buxom, and completely Brazilian waxed in all emergencies? Just because the Vorlons are attacking doesn't mean your nails should be unkempt girls.

 

[Alpha_Geek]

The article title is "CW unveils drama slate".

Isn't slate a sedimentary rock composed of stuff that gets buried and stays that way for a very, very long time?

I'm just sayin'...

 

[Alpha_Geek]

Yes, but isn't it a comfort to know that all the female crewmembers will be young, buxom, and completely Brazilian waxed in all emergencies? Just because the Vorlons are attacking doesn't mean your nails should be unkempt girls.

Valid point, perhaps I'll tune in.

 

[Greg Cox]

Whatever happened to "Bitches," that "Sex and the City with werewolves" series they were talking about a while ago?

Sounds like the perfect companion to "Vampire Diaries"!

 

[Maab of the Ten Tribes]

Couldn't have said it better myself.

 

[Othello]

Ok.. it's sci-fi so I'll certainly give it a shot. And the spy school thing I'll watch cause who doesn't like watching hot women running around blowing shit up and beating on bad guys?

 

[Mysterion]
