This scheduling plan actually makes a lot of sense. By putting "Dixie" on Monday alongside "Jane," you have two shows that both have seasons centering around a pregnant female and how she deals with this factor. When you think about it, it does seem to be a natural combination. In both the shows, the females will have to rearrange their worlds and decide who is going to be sharing this experience with them. And BATB can fit into that category in that we have a couple moving towards marriage and maybe children and deciding how they want to move forward in life together. And this is a SERIOUS plus for BATB, in my opinion. Obviously, the CW meant what it said in that it has not made a decision yet about "Dixie." They want to see if they can get some of Jane's fans to watch Dixie and vice versa. Means they are giving "Dixie" a real shot. And quite frankly, since they plan to move the rest of "Dixie" to Fridays come January, they could potentially give BATB the slot on Monday paired with Jane OR give BATB the Friday slot once "Dixie" finishes. After all, we are a relationship-centered program as well. The main leads for our show are moving towards marriage and getting their lives squared away, thinking of families, etc. same as these other two shows may. So I see this as a potential plus for us, depending how it goes. to me the only way it is a plus is if virgin gets no more viewers meaning another attempt to promote it/increase viewers has failed i think beauty and virgin/dixie are very different shows - not compatible at all so us being paired last year with dixie did not make much sense to me. i am also not sure whether they have or have not made a decision about dixie - my feeling is with this move they are trying to boost virgin rather than dixie but maybe i am wrong

Last season, the BATB writers concentrated more on the supernatural side of BATB rather than the relationship side until the end of the season. So BATB and Dixie being paired together didn't make much sense to me either. However, now that BATB seems to be focusing on a balance of relationship versus action/having to defend that relationship, it seems to possibly go more with relationship-oriented shows. However, that has always been the CW's problem of finding a correct pairing for BATB given that the show really is it's own little specialty. I mean, do you put a fairy tale side by side with a vampire-driven story or the more commonplace relationship-driven show? The CW has previously indicated that they know our fanbase wants the show more focused on the main couple and NOT splitting them up, so the show seems oriented towards being all about the relationship and the tests said relationship faces in Season 3. And that makes it more relationship-oriented and more likely to be paired with a relationship show like "Dixie." However, we DO still have that supernatural element, which means we could still be paired with a sci-fi show. We will just have to wait and see I guess.
I'm still glad that they are getting the "Dixie" shows scheduled. It at least moves us up the list to be scheduled. So the earlier things get scheduled, the more likely we are to get scheduled before the summertime, which is key to me.
The other thing that seems probable to me now based on this announcement by the CW regarding "Dixie" is that they will most likely put BATB either on its old night of Monday or try it on Friday when they do allow it to air.

Just curious: What is with the contracts if the show gets cancelled? Does the network has to offer them other projects then?

No the contract is binding for the actors not the network Well thats very onesided and detrimental for the actors. So the actors could not quit if they get an other good offer but the network can end the contract if they decide to end the show. Hope they get at least a good compensation in that case.

Lol no they won't get compensation. They signed and agreed to that contract and they do tend to get paid well while the contract lasts . this I'd the nature of the business there are benefits but also some compromises that need to be made

But I don't think they get that amount of money like hollywood actors. I just hope in case the show gets cancelled - what I personally don't hope or think - that KK and JR aren't buried in oblivion. In that case I want to see them in other big roles where they get the recognition they deserve!

Basis said: "actors r signed for 5-7 years but can be honored or not depend on the show success/character "
Logically its hard to believe an actress who refused to do another TVs show, once they got her agreed to do it,would signed for a 7 years long. Even more so when she was quoted on interview saying it's not good to stay on tv show for too long and an ideal tv is the ones with only 10-12 episodes per season with four or five seasons at the most.
Considering it was hard to get her to join.in first place,I think at least she would asked for some sort of flexibility written in her contract so she could explore other opportunity .
Contract were made to be negotiate.If an actor don't feel like they're happy with the character she's playing or the show direction,she can ask or Beg to be written out and the writers would be forced to do so cause the actress nolonger want to stay on the show.Hardly the first time it has ever happened.
I still stand my believe that you know who wasn't happy with how her character was written last season,you can easily picked up on it by her words.If some weird cosmic hoax happened and BATB live to see beyond third season,or fourth I can see the above scenario would happen.
KK played the girlfriend/love interest, the girl behind the big man who is the central character role for so long,7 years to be exact.It's hard to imagine she'd choose to do this kind of role,which was what Cat turned out to be, Again.

But it was a nice surprise — we get to come back together again, and we all get along really well. I had a really nice, totally practical point of view. I had a really nice year working, so I think it’ll be good for us to come back and do 13" She also said about the show " I feel like we’ve tried out a bunch of different things with the show, and there are so many wonderful things about it. I really hope that we find the right mix and it gels so that we get more of an audience — or at least really please and excite the audience that we do have and that is so passionate." it does not sound to me like she is unhappy or that she hates the show or/and her character in it or that she woudl not be happy with a third or fourth season renewal. unless you read somewhere that she absolutely dislikes the show or/and her character and wants to move on asap ok off to vote for my show and my fav actors

Sometimes it's the fans that create the ISSUES, not much issues with actors, they come to work do their work and go home. At the end of the day when shows get canceled wether just 1 season, 2,3,4,5 etc. life goes on with them and same with us fans. IMO, BATB actors respect each other and their fans, also they are veteran actors they know the ins and out of show business..some shows will last like forever and some don't.
