View Full Version : Reba Season Ender/Cliff Hanger
JClabaugh@aol.com 03-27-2006, 05:02 PM Hi Everyone:
I hope you all liked this season of Reba. I have! The season ender is actually a double edged soward. Reba has a heart attack and we have to wait until season six to see if she makes it ~~~~~~~~ Plus, Van and Chyenne might break up! I can't wait for next season.
troopoleon8897 03-27-2006, 05:04 PM you should really label this as spoilers...
Buffyboy323 03-27-2006, 07:53 PM Whoa! When's the Finale??? And I take it Kira won't be there?
Mister Ed 03-27-2006, 09:57 PM Reba has a heart attack and we have to wait until season six to see if she makes it
This is kind of a dumb cliffhanger. She is obviously going to survive because the whole show is based around her.
Also, please put on the main title "CONTAINS SPOILERS".

JClabaugh@aol.com 04-29-2006, 02:38 PM The Season Finale will be May 5 @ 9:00 PM. Next season Reba will continue on the CW network when the WB closes in May.

nothing is definate yet...while it is the highest rated WB comedy doesn't mean it is definately gonna return next season...
Buffyboy323 04-29-2006, 04:53 PM nothing is definate yet...while it is the highest rated WB comedy doesn't mean it is definately gonna return next season...
Wanna make a bet???
PrettyinPink55 04-29-2006, 06:09 PM I think Reba will most certainly be back next season.
troopoleon8897 04-29-2006, 07:16 PM Well I know it's almost 90% sure of coming back but It is offical yet thats why I said something about it...
Buffyboy323 04-29-2006, 09:14 PM It might not be in Writing, but believe me, It's Official. Reba will be back next year, and maybe even the year after that. Along with 7th, Gilmore, and Smallville, Reba is a Highly Rated show, for WB standards anyway.
troopoleon8897 04-29-2006, 10:43 PM yeah the CW is kicking it self now, they cancel 7th heaven and now they are thinking of keeping it...

EXCLUSIVE: Moonves Manhandles "Reba"
So CBS thinks Reba McIntire is good enough to host the Academy of Country Music Awards live on May 23rd. (It's her 8th time.) But CBS' Les Moonves doesn't think the 51-year-old actress-singer's show Reba is good enough for his new CW netlet -- even though it's the highest-rated sitcom on the WB. (Background, see my Finke/LA Weekly: Moonves Kidnaps CW.) I'm told the show's producer, Fox Studios, was shocked to hear the CW doesn't want the sitcom. That's because, last year, Reba was picked up by the WB for two years. When news broke about the WB/UPN merging to form CW, Reba's executive producers informed the cast and crew that Moonves had sent word that he expected the new netlet would honor that deal. So the series' shooting ended on March 14th with everyone expecting to be back in the fall.
But I'm told that, in mid-April, the CW execs told Fox they wanted out of the deal -- the reason being that the show doesn't attract "the desired demographic" the new network wants tuning in. (Translation: no to Country-Western yahoos.) Fox said no way, and that is where things now stand. It's my understanding that, because of the old pick-up deal, it could cost the CW lotsa loot to make the show go away. Some believe this might just be a negotiation ploy to lower the license fee and other costs. But I seriously doubt it. Officially, the show is not canceled yet. But the cast is devastated, and the crew have been told to grab any other work that's offered. I've also learned from some Reba insiders that the show's season finale, which airs this Friday, was originally scripted and shot as a cliffhanger. But they tell me it's been re-edited to reflect Moonves's kiss-off, so it may be the series' finale.

They don't want to attract Country-Western fans, so they name their channel
"CW." Real smart move there! (HA! HA!)
Chain Gang Member 05-03-2006, 08:58 AM I hope Van & CHeyenne don't break up.They look so good together:(
swedeace 05-04-2006, 09:50 AM Wow! I really hope this week's season finale episode won't be the series finale either. Good question about Kyra - is she going to return next season?
JClabaugh@aol.com 05-05-2006, 08:17 AM The CW better not screw with us! Reba is one of the better comedies on TV right now and I love that show. The least they could do is honor the sixth season contract and give the show time to find a new home. Since lifetime will start airing reruns in the fall maybe they would pick up the new season as well or perhaps ABC. I could air right after According to Jim on tuesday nights. Lets all complain to Barbara Walters ... she knows how to get things done ... LOL!
swedeace 05-05-2006, 09:40 AM Okay, apparently I missed something HUGE.... is the WB going to now become CW? Or, is CW a new channel...or...???
Hmmm.... Sounds like I am going to have to do some investigating because I am obviously missing a lot of info here...

The WB is going to be no more after this season. The same with UPN. Next fall the two networks will merge and form the CW network. The President of UPN is going to be in charge of it.
Mister Ed 05-06-2006, 10:16 PM Is there a specific reason they are merging? Is there really a point to it?
Mr. Television 05-06-2006, 10:24 PM Is there a specific reason they are merging? Is there really a point to it?
Both networks were losing money so they decided to pull their resources together.

Oh, I see now. Thank you for explaining. Changed mergings are always usually weird in the beginning, so it will take time to get used to things, unfortunately.
Buffyboy323 05-07-2006, 02:41 AM I loved the episode. I thought it was really a good one. The scenes with Van and Cheyanne doing their Vows again. And the scene that Reba had with BJ was nice too. I was alittle bothered that Kira and Jake weren't in it at all, but then they showed the retrospective and included them, so it was alright, and I understood that they wouldn't have wanted Jake in the Hospital during everything. I hope that wasn't the last of Reba, but if it was, it's alright because I felt that we got closure.
JClabaugh@aol.com 05-08-2006, 12:43 PM According to Variety, CW has informed 20th Century Fox that it has no plans to pick up Reba for another season.... So the only hope now is if another network steps in and picks it up!!!!
