C&Pd with comments:

MONDAY

8:00-9:00 PM              HART OF DIXIE (New Night)

9:00-10:00 PM            BEAUTY AND THE BEAST (New Night)

TUESDAY

8:00-9:00 PM              THE ORIGINALS (New Series)

"Vampire Diaries" with more hot young vampires--hey, it's The CW.

9:00-10:00 PM            SUPERNATURAL (New Night)

WEDNESDAY

8:00-9:00 PM              ARROW

9:00-10:00 PM            THE TOMORROW PEOPLE (New Series)

An Americanization of the cult British kids SF series--the 90s reboot of that series aired on Nickelodeon here (the show's creator moved to North America since the original 70s run and created "You Can't Do That on Television," the flagship Nick show back in the day).  It's about kids with paranormal powers--once again, it's The CW.

THURSDAY

8:00-9:00 PM              THE VAMPIRE DIARIES

9:00-10:00 PM            REIGN (New Series)

The story of Mary, Queen of Scots.  Yes, on The CW.  The only familiar name in the cast list I've seen is Megan Follows, the Canadian who starred in "Avonlea," for those of you who had Disney Channel back before the days of crappy sitcoms.

FRIDAY

8:00-9:00 PM              THE CARRIE DIARIES (New Night)

9:00-10:00 PM            AMERICA’S NEXT TOP MODEL

The Show That Could Not Die, seemingly on its last legs as a summer series, but the last remnant of UPN will get a fall slot this time.

And "Nikita" will have a final six-episode season next year.

As someone with fond memories of the original (from it's airings on Nick back in the early 80s), this makes me really freakin' nervous.  Like, "Inspector SpaceTime USA" nervous.
