First, what you want to know: No official pickups of UPN or WB series were announced.
But the "Prime Development '06-'07" packet handed out during the presentation to advertisers in Burbank this week included pages on the WB's "Everwood," "Gilmore Girls," "One Tree Hill," "Supernatural," "Smallville," "Reba" and "Beauty & the Geek."
It also included pages on UPN's "America's Next Top Model," "Everybody Hates Chris," "All of Us," "Girlfriends," "Veronica Mars" and World Wrestling Entertainment's "Smackdown!"
And, although the WB announced in January it was cutting bait on "7th Heaven" because the long-running drama series will lose about $16 million this season, it might come back after all because, besides being costly, it's still the most watched series on either UPN or the WB, averaging about 5.3 million viewers this season. Which is not a bad thing to have around when you're trying to launch a network.
The second most watched series between the two soon-to-be-has-been nets is "America's Next Top Model," which averaged about 5 million viewers in the fall, followed by "Smallville" and "Gilmore Girls," with an average audience of 4.8 million.
