Info from CW Exec Dawn Ostroff

by AmyD

During last week’s TV Critic Association panels, CW Cheif Dawn Ostroff answered questions about the future of the network and the shows we love. I’m putting what she had to say about Gilmore Girls and Veronica Mars on here (since I know there are some other VM fans in the house).

• Just asked Dawn how confident she is that Lauren and Alexis will agree to another season of Gilmore Girls. “We are talking to them,” is all she would say.

• Got in a follow-up about the likelihood of a fourth season of Veronica Mars. She loves the show and points out that it’s having its highest-rated season yet. But no decision has been made.

• Veronica Mars will go on hiatus for eight weeks beginning March 6 to make way for the Pussycat Dolls reality show. Mars will return with five stand-alone eps in April.

• On Gilmore’s creative direction this season, she concedes that “the first half of the season was a little rocky. [Dave Rosenthal] was painted into a storyline corner [from last season]. i think the second half of the season will be a lot stronger.”

• When the time comes for Gilmore to end, she’d like to give producers time to wrap things up. But it’s “premature” to talk about that now.
