The CW still has remake fever.
The network that dusted off 90210 and MELROSE PLACE for primetime is combing through other old titles, CW Entertainment prexy Dawn Ostroff said Tuesday.
Speaking to reporters during the Dub net’s portion of the TV Critics Assn. press tour, Ostroff said she’s interested in perhaps reviving another dormant femme-centric series next year.
“There are other shows we’re looking at, but we can’t talk about it yet,” she said.
Remakes bring a “built-in brand equity,” Ostroff said, citing the number of revived franchises hitting the feature world as well.
Ostroff also said a 90210/MELROSE PLACE cross-over could be in the cards once “Melrose” gets established.
As for the GOSSIP GIRL spinoff, which was close to making it on the schedule in spring, Ostroff said the drama is now officially dead.
It would be nice if The CW got into remaking a classic daytime soap.
