Great news, TV fans! The CW has agreed to renew six of our favorites: Gossip Girl, Supernatural, One Tree Hill, 90210, Smallville and America's Next Top Model. And that's an awesome turn of events, to be sure, but it does leave four existing CW series in limbo: Privileged, Reaper, The Game and Everybody Hates Chris. Any or all of those four might still be canceled to make way for the likes of the new Melrose Place and the Gossip Girl spinoff set in 1980s L.A.

Still, a guarantee of more Winchester boys and Bluck? Not so bad.

Smallville needs better writers next season. The "Lana Lang gets superpowers" storyline ark was lame and unnecessary. It only got in the way of the Doomsday story ark and Lois Lane doesn't seem to be involved in the storyline at all at this point.
