I still don't understand it, especially since it was cancelled so the Completely Worthless Network (Trademark Michelle) could bring back that crapfest 7th Heaven, which bombed the next season. It was also cancelled to make room for a new show called Runaway that got cancelled after 3 episodes. Great move, Dawn Ostroff.  |
Right?
I won't understand it either. Remember when Completely Worthless Network actually had Everwood already inserted firmly on their website? There was a page dedicated to Everwood. We all saw it here on this board and celebrated. Within about 12-24 hours, it was taken down and suddenly news broke Everwood was pulled in favor of trash by comparison. There was Karma involved (Dawn getting canned, these other series flopping or receiving really bad endings), no doubt about it. But it will always hurt thinking about what they did to Everwood. Everwood had better ratings than the vast majority of shows taken too. Proof it wasn't about ratings or quality. It was about a brand, a flavor, nothing else.
The WB never even cared about Everwood. Remember how it changed nights like it didn't even matter? Ratings still held though. Whenever the network pulled something, Everwood always bit back, strong and determined. The WB never promoted Everwood either, but it went nuts with promotion for shows like Dawson's Creek and OTH.
