When I talk about "The WB" (and I do, more often that I realize) I will be talking of an extinct creature. My children will not know what I speak of. UGH.

It seems The WB and UPN are merging into a new network called The CW for CBS (which owns UPN) and Warner Brothers. They should have at least kept one of the names I think. Anything but start from scratch.
