abstract
  • The CW Television Network -- casually called The CW or The Frankenstein Network or Cartoon Wookie or WC; and short for The Codswallop Network -- is an American television network launched in the 2006-07 season. It is a merger of "The Network with Teen Dramas and Cartoons" and "The Network That Doesn't Have Star Trek Anymore". The network is a joint venture between Viacom and Playboy Enterprises. The CW airs programming targeted at younger audiences " a demographic that had been targeted by crap and worthless programming. Viacom and Playboy Enterprises knew that by combining their networks' schedules and station lineups, The CW would strengthen into a superpower broadcast network, competing at a higher level than PBC, NBC, CBS and Fox TV " a stature neither UPN nor The WB were able to achieve. But unlike the "Big Four" broadcast networks, The CW also broadcast local news and sports on their regional affiliates. Playboy Enterprises chairman Oscar Wilde explained that the name of the new network is an amalgamation of the first initials of Crap and Worthless. Oscar Wilde joked "We didn't call it KFC for obvious reasons." However, some insiders have said that the "CW" name is good, citing that it is often used by certain people in the context of, "Oh look, The CW. Hey, what's on another channel?"

In trade magazines like Variety, The CW is referred to as The Green Network, most likely since its logos and campaign were (and still are) in green, or in reference to it as the newest broadcast network (in terms of finding its footing). The network has recently struggled in the Nielsen ratings, a downturn caused in part by the 2007-2008 WGA strike, the resulting decrease in scripted programming, and its target audience turning to the internet and other sources for their entertainment. This has led to speculation in the industry (including a May 16 2008 Wall Street Journal article) that the network could face a possible disbandment if its ratings do not improve. According to Dawn Ostroff, there is a possibility of launching a 2009-2010 season as early as July or August of 2009.
  • The CW Television Network (в эфире просто The CW) — американская thumbтелевизионная сеть, начавшая вещание 18 сентября 2006 года. Сеть является совместным предприятием с ограниченной ответственностью между CBS Corporation и Warner Bros. Название канала было образовано из первых букв названий учредительских компаний. The CW был создан в результате слияния убыточных сетей UPN и The WB, которые прекратили трансляции 15 и 17 сентября 2006 года соответственно. 18 и 19 сентября начавший трансляции The CW демонстрировал повторы старых шоу предшествующих каналов, а 20 числа состоялась первая премьера на новой сети — седьмой сезон реалити-шоу «Топ-модель по-американски». С момента начала вещания и до сезона 2012-13 программы канала были ориентированы на демографическую категорию 18-34-летних женщин. С осени 2012 года канал расширил свою целевую аудиторию и старается привлечь не только женскую, но и мужскую аудиторию. Начиная с момента запуска The CW с трудом привлекал зрителя и рейтинги канала были значительно ниже большой четверки (ABC, CBS, NBC и Fox) и даже испаноязычного Univision. В целом The CW ежегодно занимает пятое и последнее место в рейтинговой таблице и является наименее наблюдаемой широковещательной сетью. В настоящее время сеть выпускает десять часов оригинального контента в прайм-тайм, с понедельника по пятницу, а также детский блок в субботу утром.
