NEW SERIES DESCRIPTIONS:

“HART OF DIXIE”

Fast-talking New Yorker and brand new doctor Zoe Hart has it all figured out – after graduating top of her class from medical school, she’ll follow in her father’s footsteps and become a cardio-thoracic surgeon. But when her dreams fall apart, Zoe decides to accept an offer from a stranger, Dr. Harley Wilkes, to work with him at his small practice in Bluebell, Alabama. Zoe arrives in this small Gulf Coast town only to find that Harley has passed away and left his half of the medical practice to her in his will. She quickly finds that Southern hospitality isn’t always so hospitable – the other doctor in town, Brick Breeland, is less than pleased to be sharing the practice with this young outsider, and his daughter, Lemon, is a Southern belle whose sweet disposition turns sour when she meets Zoe. Zoe’s only allies are the mayor, former football star Lavon Hayes, her bad-boy neighbor Wade Kinsella, and handsome lawyer George Tucker – who just happens to be Lemon’s fiancé. Zoe is out of her element and ready to pack her bags, but a surprise visit by her snobby New York mother leads to Zoe’s decision to stay in Bluebell for a while, discovering small-town life and a side of herself she hadn’t known was there. The series stars Rachel Bilson as Dr. Zoe Hart, Jaime King as Lemon Breeland, Wilson Bethel as Wade Kinsella, Cress Williams as Lavon Hayes, McKaley Miller as Rose and Scott Porter as George Tucker. HART OF DIXIE is from Bonanza Productions Inc., in association with Fake Empire, Warner Bros. Television and CBS Television Studios, with executive producers Leila Gerstein (“Gossip Girl,” “Eli Stone”), Josh Schwartz (“Gossip Girl,” “Chuck,” “The O.C.”), Stephanie Savage (“Gossip Girl,” “The O.C.”), Len Goldstein and Jason Ensler (“Gossip Girl,” “Chuck”). The pilot was directed by Jason Ensler.

“RINGER”

Sarah Michelle Gellar stars as a woman who, after witnessing a murder, goes on the run, hiding out by assuming the life of her wealthy identical twin sister – only to learn that her sister’s seemingly idyllic life is just as complicated and dangerous as the one she’s trying to leave behind. Bridget is six months sober and starting to turn her life around when she is the sole witness to a professional hit. Despite the assurances of her FBI protector, Agent Victor Machado, Bridget knows her life is on the line. She flees to New York, telling no one, not even her Narcotics Anonymous sponsor, Malcolm. In New York, Bridget reunites with her estranged twin, Siobhan. Wealthy, pampered and married to the strikingly handsome Andrew Martin, Siobhan lives what appears to be a fairy tale life – a life where no one knows that Bridget exists. The sisters seem to be mending their frayed relationship, until Siobhan disappears mysteriously, and Bridget makes the split decision to take on her sister’s identity. She discovers shocking secrets, not only about her sister and her marriage, but also about Siobhan’s best friend, Gemma, and Gemma’s husband, Henry. And when someone tries to kill Bridget in her sister’s penthouse, she realizes she is no safer as Siobhan than she is as herself. The series stars Sarah Michelle Gellar as Bridget and Siobhan, Kristoffer Polaha as Henry, Ioan Gruffudd as Andrew Martin, Nestor Carbonell as Agent Victor Machado and Tara Summers as Gemma. RINGER is produced by CBS Television Studios and Warner Bros. Television in association with ABC Television Studios and Brillstein Entertainment with executive producers Pam Veasey (“CSI, NY,” “The District”), Peter Traugott (“Samantha Who?”) and Emmy Award-winner Richard Shepard (“Ugly Betty”). The pilot was directed by Richard Shepard.

“H8R”

Celebrities go head-to-head with civilians who hate them to win their “haters” over. Hosted by Mario Lopez, H8R is from Horizon Alternative Television with executive producers Lisa Gregorisch-Dempsey (“Extra”), Jeremy Spiegel (“Extra”) and Mario Lopez.

“THE SECRET CIRCLE”

Cassie Blake was a happy, normal teenage girl – until her mother Amelia dies in what appears to be a tragic accidental fire. Orphaned and deeply saddened, Cassie moves in with her warm and loving grandmother Jane in the beautiful small town of Chance Harbor, Washington – the town her mother left so many years before – where the residents seem to know more about Cassie than she does about herself. As Cassie gets to know her high school classmates, including sweet-natured Diana and her handsome boyfriend Adam, brooding loner Nick, mean-girl Faye and her sidekick Melissa, strange and frightening things begin to happen. When her new friends explain that they are all descended from powerful witches, and they’ve been waiting for Cassie to join them and complete a new generation of the Secret Circle, Cassie refuses to believe them – until Adam shows her how to unlock her incredible magical powers. But it’s not until Cassie discovers a message from her mother in an old leather-bound book of spells hidden in her mother’s childhood bedroom, that she understands her true and dangerous destiny. What Cassie and the others don’t yet know is that darker powers are at play, powers that might be linked to the adults in the town, including Diana’s father and Faye’s mother – and that Cassie’s mother’s death might not have been an accident. The series stars Britt Robertson as Cassie Blake, Thomas Dekker as Adam Conant, Gale Harold as Charles Meade, Phoebe Tonkin as Fay Chamberlain, Jessica Parker Kennedy as Melissa, Shelley Hennig as Diana Meade, Louis Hunter as Nick, Ashley Crow as Jane Blake and Natasha Henstridge as Dawn Chamberlain. Based upon the book series by L.J. Smith (author of “The Vampire Diaries” book series), THE SECRET CIRCLE is from Outerbanks Entertainment and Alloy Entertainment in association with Warner Bros. Television and CBS Television Studios with executive producers Kevin Williamson (“The Vampire Diaries,” “Scream,” “Dawson’s Creek”), Andrew Miller (“Imaginary Bitches”), Leslie Morgenstein (“The Vampire Diaries,” “Gossip Girl”) and Gina Girolamo. Elizabeth Craft (“The Vampire Diaries,” “Lie to Me”) & Sarah Fain (“The Vampire Diaries,” “Lie to Me”) were executive producers on the pilot which was directed by Liz Friedlander (“The Vampire Diaries,” “90210”).

I'll probably be able to go back to watching 90210 again now that they moved it out of a busy Monday. I was going to catch up with this season in re-runs over the summer.

I will give Ringer a try, for SMG I suppose. That and Supernatural are all I'll be watching, now that Smallville is over.

I'll probably check out Hart of Dixie (for the Rachel Bilson/Josh Schwartz factor) and Ringer.

In for VD & Supernatural. I'm tempted to support Buffy on this new venture though.

Hart of Dixie for the lovely Rachel Bilson

Ringer for SMG. Sounds like a really cool show

Secret Circle for Britt Robertson

in addition to Nikita and the other CW shows I watch.

For anyone who hasn't already done so, I highly recommend Nikita, especially if you were a fan of 24.

You will be watching. At least it has SMG, which should be a draw for alot of people and CW shows tend to last at least 1 full season.

I really don't care one way or the other about her. Was never much of a Buffy fan. Now if we're talking Cruel Intentions.....

It's the premise that's interesting.

I'll give Hart of Dixie a shot for Rachel Bilson and Jamie King.

Ringer sounds interesting.

I need to ge S1 of Nikkita to give it a shot.

Hopefully S7 of Supernatural is more consistent than S6.

I'm glad this is finally it for One Tree Hill.

Since it's premiering midseason, I guess it could fill in for 90210 or Gossip Girl, while they take their extended hiatuses. I recall One Tree Hill did the same thing with Life Unexpected a few years ago.

Ringer had the weakest of those spots, and it certainly didn't give me any more confidence. SC may be okay, but I might wait to hear how it's going before jumping in. Since some of the people responsible for Vampire Dairies are behind it, I hope it follows a similar edgy path. Heart of Dixie looks like it could be fun - curious to see what the bigger setting is. It's like a reverse OC meets Everwood.

The clip they showed with Snooki was fun. The guy she confronts of course in the beginning is too dumbstruck to say anything but then he found his voice and started in on her.

I'm waiting for someone to now put up a complete weeknight schedule of all the networks so I can actually see how what I'll be watching live, DVR'ing, and/or watching via Hulu.

The CW is trying to get Chad Michael Murray and Hilarie Burton to return for One Tree Hill's final season.

It's going to be a little hard to get Hilarie since she's a series regular on White Collar and they film from Spring to late December/early January.

Re: The CW Announces it's 2011-2012 Schedule

I will most certainly be watching lots of the CW, but i hate the cheesy sounding "TV speak" descriptions of the shows "her bad-boy neighbor Wade Kinsella, and handsome lawyer George Tucker", along with her sassy best friend Snaps Ortega, who comes from the wrong side of the tracks.

I also have to say on first image, Rachel Bilson as a genius heart surgeon and Nobel poet laureate reminds me too much of Dr Christmas Jones, hot pants wearing nuclear physicist.
