While the TV season only officially ended a couple of weeks ago, the wheels of production for the fall should be starting up again shortly (as already reported, Gossip Girl goes back into production in 3 or 4 weeks with the first two episodes filmed in the City Of Light, Paris).

This can only mean one thing: Scoop! Admit it, you've missed it and I've missed talking about it. Do you know how difficult it is to come up with anything to write this time of year?!

Between the upcoming TCA Summer Press Tour and Comic-Con, you can expect scoop, galore!

From July 22-25th, the annual Comic-Con convention will take place in San Diego. Several CW shows have already been announced as participants at the annual geek-fest, Expect panel discussions for The Vampire Diaries, Smallville, Supernatural and Nikita, the hot new spy thriller with action 'flicktress', Maggie Q!

So, all I can say is patience is a virtue. When it comes, I'll be here to keep you up-to-date with all of the scoop and scooplets this summer.

Just because the TV season is over, doesn't mean you have to wait until September to get a taste of The CW's new hits in waiting. The network has generously posted trailers for both Hellcats and Nikita and I have generously decided to pass them on to you right here.

Hellcats will air on Wednesdays following an-all new cycle of America's Next Top Model (the winner of which will, for the first time, grace the cover of Italian Vogue). Nikita will follow The Vampire Diaries on Thursdays at 9pm.

Tell us what you think!

Expect the Unexpected.

Fans of One Tree Hill and Life Unexpected can breathe a huge sigh of relief. That's because CW honchos have renewed both fan favorites for next season. One Tree Hill and Life Unexpected were on the bubble to return, but the network has given the go ahead for orders of at least 12 episodes of each series.

The news was not so good for fans of Melrose Place. That show is officially kaput!

The network has also ordered at least two new series for the fall:

Hellcats, the college cheerleading drama from Smallville's Tom Welling (starring Aly Michalka and Ashley Tisdale) and Nikita, an updated take on the movie and TV series Le Femme Nikita and Point Of No Return, starring action film star Maggie Q.

A formal announcement and the rest of the CW fall schedule will be presented to advertisers on Thursday morning at Madison Square Garden.
