The Entertainment Weekly article got updated w/more quotes. Noticed the main thing he kept saying twice was epic love story of Cat & Vincent - you hear that writers!!! Even the Prez of CW, wants VinCat! So cherish and respect our ship! insidetv.ew.com/2013/01/13/cw-renewal-odds/

How are TPTB not respecting the VinCat? The damn ex's long arc....no Cat pics at all for Thin Ice and she's the lead. You know I'm dreading this vinex arc....ugh...it's so bad and sad for Cat!

Beauty and the Beast: Pedowitz is happy with the freshman show and noted its recent win at the People's Choice Awards. "We're very pleased with it creatively," he said. "It's on par with Secret Circle in terms of total viewers. Based on the passion of fans, we think we have something." Source: www.tvguide.com/News/CW-Vampire-Diaries-Supernatural-1058763.aspx?obref=obinsiteHAHAHA @ all the haters/trolls online, especially at TVByTheNumbers who said that the PCA win meant nothing to the CW. BATB's PCA made the CW think that BATB may be worth saving. That is the power of Beasties. At this moment in time, if a decision had to be made, I think the CW would renew BATB. I'm so happy. But though we've won the battle so far, the war to secure our fave show a second season isn't over. We need to turn our attention to the fan campaigns to save the show. Check out the thread on this forum, if you hadn't already for the BATB Fan Campaign. We're going to send books in March. More details in that thread: saveeachother.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=talk&action=display&thread=114Also, sign the petition and encourage others to sign the Petition! Tweet & Tumble & post about the petition. We need to reach 5,000 signatures ASAP. There's no reason we can't do this. Here's the link for the Petition: www.change.org/petitions/the-cw-television-network-get-beauty-and-the-beast-a-second-season*UPDATE* CBS confirmed that BATB is doing great with international sales!!!

Collider's quotes from the CW executive session pretty much match those from the Entertainment Weekly article: How do you feel about Beauty and the Beast, and what is the likelihood of that coming back for a second season? PEDOWITZ: We’re very pleased, in terms of where it’s going creatively. It’s basically on par with The Secret Circle, with total viewers. We believe the show has a very long run in front of it. We’ve made no announcements about a second season, but based on the passion of the fans, both at E! Online and the People’s Choice Awards, we think we have something in this epic love story between Cat and Vincent.What makes you feel optimistic that it will go on, even though it’s tracking the same way as a show that you canceled? PEDOWITZ: The answer to that question is that I believe the show has more growth potential in it, in terms of its creativity and because we’re centered around that love story. collider.com/mark-pedowitz-carrie-diaries-wonder-woman-amazon-interview/223997/#more-223997

Sounds like batb could go to 2nd season! My prediction is 75% chance. I hope they wouldn't have to make a choice between arrow and batb though? Is there a rule on how many shows they can pick up? So, they can give a particular number of new shows a chance? It should go in favour: batb won PCA and E poll. Apparently international sales are high. So hopefully the cw bosses won't just focus on the tv ratings. I'd say most likely alot of people would be watching it online, rather than the tv particularly overseas people.

So hopefully the cw bosses won't just focus on the tv ratings. I'd say most likely alot of people would be watching it online, rather than the tv particularly overseas people. In one of the articles cited in this thread, Pedowitz did say something along the lines of 20% of viewership for all the shows is online. And that they do factor in the viewership from their website, Hulu, and Netflix. BATB isn't available through Netflix (yet), but we need to keep watching on CWTV.com and Hulu you guys! Still looking for the article that talks about BATB doing well with international sales. If any of my fellow Beasties find it, please post it. At least I know I'm not crazy in that several different commenters online are always saying the same thing. I'm so tempted to be like "Hey...I read that same article where you got your info. Can you please direct me to it, as I can't find the source again." haha I did find this on CBS's website though. It's old, but it is one of the BATB sales: www.cbscorporation.com/news-article.php?id=913Also CBS International has a congratulations to BATB on their main site (before you login, so no need to login guys): www.cbssi.com/SignInITV.aspxIn case they take down the image, I have a screencap on my Tumblr page: thejacki.tumblr.com/post/40506756631/the-screencap-is-of-cbs-studios-internationals

Very encouraging news. I still think the ratings need to go up a little in order to really have a good chance. If Carrie Diaries and/or Cult take off, it may be a bit harder to keep the show on the air for Season 2. Nonetheless, the PCA win was a good thing for the show and I'm happy to hear the Prez acknowledge that.
