Okay, I was cruising the world wide web and stumbled upon the November Sweeps results. While Birds of Prey was pretty far down on the list (101) there were quite a few WB shows ever farther down the list.

Check out the WB's results....none of them were very good.

64. "7th Heaven," WB, 5.4
76. "Smallville," WB, 4.7
81. "Gilmore Girls," WB, 4.4
87. (X) "The Wizard of Oz," WB, 4.0
89. "Everwood," WB, 3.9
93. "Reba," WB, 3.3
99. "Dawson's Creek," WB, 2.9
101. "Birds Of Prey," WB, 2.6
104. (X) "Reba-Sunday," WB, 2.2
104. "What I Like About You," WB, 2.2
107. "Greetings From Tucson," WB, 1.9
113. (X) "WB Special Movie: Gossip," WB, 1.2

I find it interesting that Dawson's Creek was only TWO slots ahead of Birds of Prey. How do they expect a new show to do well, when it doesn't have a strong lead in? My main question...why didn't they put BoP after Smallville? Seems to me, a comic themed night would have helped more than hurt...but maybe that's just me.

Here's UPN's results....

91. "World Wrestling Entertainment Smackdown!," UPN, 3.5
95. "Enterprise," UPN, 3.1
97. "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," UPN, 3.0
97. "Girlfriends," UPN, 3.0
99. "One On One," UPN, 2.9
101. "Half and Half," UPN, 2.6
103. "The Parkers," UPN, 2.5
106. "The Twilight Zone," UPN, 2.0
108. "Girlfriends-Tuesday," UPN, 1.4
108. "Half and Half-Tuesday," UPN, 1.4
108. "UPN's Movie Friday: Bullet Proof," UPN, 1.4


Looks like UPN could use a little bit of help, don't you think? Especially since Buffy isn't doing THAT much better than BoP. Makes you wonder....

I can't believe that Dawson's gets better ratings than BoP does. That is show is horrible in my opinion. But yeah it does look like UPN could use some help. If the WB doesn't change thier minds hopefully Bop will have a future there.

You know what really cooks my goose? I think it is mediaweek that has an article saying how great the WB has done this year in sweeps. The WB released that one press release praising how much BOP had done for them. Even though the ratings haven't been stellar, BOP has done alot for the Worthless Bozos network, and it doesn't get any credit! UGH! I hope that BOP goes to another network that will give it a chance and the ratings soar and it kicks every show a$& on the WB! Birds of Prey rules! It will live on!!!!!!

Amen! Birds of Prey was obviously too good for the WB anyway...they didn't appreciate what they had. :)

Now, Dinah, Helena, and Barbara will just have to move on to better episodes on a smarter network. <G>

Hopefully we can get them to reconsider...
