Kristin from E! Says Charmed's in Danger
Lucky for you--thanks to jury duty and a slew of Hollywood and holiday events this week (yes, I do sometimes get off the couch!), I have precisely 47 minutes to write this column. Why does that make you lucky? Because that leaves me precisely...oh, let's see, carry the one, subtract the two and that comes out to...zero minutes to censor myself. Publicists and snippy stars be d**ned! We're going rapid-fire style this week. And it's gonna be fun. Well, despite this first announcement.
Froggy Forecast: First, the good news. I connected with a few well-placed sources close to the WB this week, and they tell me the rumors that Gilmore Girls will end after this season might not be true. "Talks are still continuing with Amy Sherman-Palladino and Dan Palladino about staying with the show, and a new show they are front-running for next year will be part of the deal for both of them to stay," one source inside the network tells me. "As for Gilmore Girls itself, they are looking to end it after next year, but if it continues to do well, it could go beyond the next season. Both Lauren [Graham] and Alexis [Bledel] have expressed interest in returning, if things go well with Amy and Dan."
Now, the clincher, which will come as something of a kick in the gut to you fans. Inside sources confirm to me that Charmed and What I Like About You are very much "on the fence," and probably will be canceled after the current season wraps up in May.
The silver lining? After I reported on Tuesday's E! News that an inside source told me One Tree Hill might be in the same boat, I've been contacted by anyone and everyone connected to the studio and the network, assuring me that is not the case. WB reps insist the network is 100-percent behind Tree Hill, and the show isn't going anywhere. Can I get an "amen," my Tree-huggin' brethren?
More good news: Sources tell me Supernatural and Smallville are definitely going at least another season, and might even share a night together next year. I'll waste away in Supernaturalville anytime, baby.
