Unhappy UPN picked another show for mid-season

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmp...evision_upn_dc

Quote:

"LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) In its first midseason order, UPN has picked up the comedy "The Bad Girl's Guide," starring Jenny McCarthy "


I don't know if this was told before here, or if "Cats & Dogs" has still a chance.
Do the Networks picked more than one?

Nope. But it's entirely possible.

While it's been some time since I've followed UPN's business plan closely, not more than a few years ago, the Valentine strategy was to be the "Blue Collar/Working Man's Channel" (aside: I'll have to try to track down the exact quote from Dean-o but it was pretty close to this).

Now there has been some executive changes over the years and this may not be their exact mission statement today (although, I still think it influences), McCarthy and her particular brand of Midwestern/Great Lakes state charm might have been deemed a better fit then CC's pilot.

Or it just might be that McCarthy is more of a household name than CC...but I don't necessarily think it means anything about the quality of Cats and Dogs nor that it's outta the game entirely.

ETA: Even so, if nothing more comes out of it other than it gave CC some more exposure? It's still all good in my book.
