I've have just read an article on wikipedia saying that this on the list of shows that will not be on the CW channel. Other shows include: Half and Half, All of Us, Eve, Love Inc., and One on One. Someone please comment on this!
shareI have also heard about that! Here is a rumor from allhiphop.com:
BLACK SHOWS GET THE BATTLE AXE!
“Eve,” “Love, Inc.” and “Cuts” have all been cancelled, from what I have been told. WB and UPN have ceased to exist and now have formed the CW Network, which will be a combination of the two. But, in combining, a lot of shows got cut including “South Beach,” which I heard was pretty good. I’m getting that if Eve can generate interest in her show by dropping an album, there is hope, but Marques Houston is a goner. Nothing formal has been announced, but the writing is on the wall in permanent ink.
could u post again or give the link. all i see are numbers for titles.

The link for the wikipedia article is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_programs_broadcast_by_UPN
shareDon't go by that site. The information listed there is by other people and most of it is rumor. Take note that UPN's black comedies (except Cuts) have higher ratings than the entire WB except 7th Heaven adn Reba.
Remember most of the black shows on UPN have syndication deals meaning they are more valuable to CW airing new shows at the same time their syndicated shows air.
According to an article in the Chicago Sun-Times this morning, the only Black sitcom on UPN that's likely to survive is "Girlfriends."
share"Girlfriends",has been on UPN's Monday night schedule for six seasons,and it was the ONLY show that has survived the impact of those shows that UPN has cancelled altogether. "Girlfriends" is also the highest rated show on Monday nights as well since after six years it has been up against some tough competition for the tough Monday night timeslot,and has stay on against the tide. It has also did brilliantly in syndication repeats as well. Also to note,the Emmy nominated,NAACP Image Award Winning show "Everybody Hates Chris",has also been renew as well. These will be the ONLY black shows from UPN that are going to the new CWN Network or CW.
Can you believe "Girlfriends" has outlasted "Everybody Loves Raymond",and
"ABC's Monday Night Football" after its six years on the air? yes,it will survive another several seasons.
So,"Girlfriends","Everybody Hates Chris","Veronica Mars","America's Next Top Model",and "WWE Smackdown" are all going to the CWN Network this fall.
