I talked with the head of CBS and the head of Nexstar\/CW, I talked with the other [executive producers] on &#8216;Walker,&#8217; and I think it was a multivariate kind of issue. My understanding is \u2014 and again, this is just what I\u2019m told \u2014 that Nexstar is going in a different direction with The CW. I mean, they have an hour of &#8216;Trivial Pursuit&#8217; and an hour of &#8216;Scrabble&#8217; coming up. I don\u2019t know why you wouldn\u2019t just download the app or grab a board game and play with your friends, but they\u2019re clearly just \u2014 what\u2019s that great quote? It\u2019s like, &#8216;If somebody tells you who they are, ask questions. If somebody shows you who they are, believe them.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>I feel like The CW that I was a part of last year is not The CW that I was a part of under [former chairman and CEO] Mark Pedowitz for that entire, almost 20-year stretch. They\u2019re just changing the network around, where it\u2019s not really going to be a TV network as much as it\u2019s going to be, &#8216;Here\u2019s something fun for an hour that you\u2019ll never watch again, but hopefully you watch it. And it\u2019s cheap!&#8217; And I hate to say that, but I\u2019m just being honest. I mean, fuck it. They can\u2019t fire me again. I\u2019m just being brutally honest. I think it felt to me like they were looking for really easy, cheap content that they could fill up time with.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Variety\/status\/1806133470139417018\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/center> <\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com\/128688495.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jared Padalecki speaks out on The CW&#8217;s &#8220;cheap content&#8221; strategy after the series finale of Walker. &#8220;I feel like The CW that I was a part of last year is not The CW that I was a part of under [former chairman and CEO] Mark Pedowitz for that entire, almost 20-year stretch.\u2026 pic.twitter.com\/DMWITUSqI6 \u2014 Variety [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":107643,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-107642","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-hollywood"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/107642","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=107642"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/107642\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/107643"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=107642"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=107642"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=107642"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
