“CW is an NBC /Comcast concern? Saw a minute of “Charmed,” last night. Hot millennial witches. Oh, and a lesbian kiss. Back to the World Series.”
Yep yep yep yep yep I’ll go back to Andy and Barney eating Sunday Dinner with Aunt Bea and Opie.
UPN was United Paramount Network, which was owned by CBS.
The WB, of course, is Warner Brothers.
The merged entity, The CW, is half owned by CBS and Warner (AT&T now).
Thus why all of the program on the network are from WB or CBS.
From the wikipedia:
The CW Television Network (commonly referred to as just The CW) is an American English-language free-to-air television network that is operated by the CW Network, LLC, a limited liability joint venture[2] between CBS Corporation, the former owners of United Paramount Network (UPN), and AT&T, whose WarnerMedia subsidiary is the parent company of Warner Bros. Entertainment, former majority owner of The WB. The network's name is an abbreviation derived from the first letters of the names of its two parent corporations (CBS and Warner Bros.)
The CW Television Network made its debut on September 18, 2006, after its two predecessors, UPN and The WB, respectively ceased independent operations on September 15 and 17 of that year.
