Just a suggestion, do you think former Showtime dramedy Dead Like Me would go well on The CW? It had a record-breaking opening for Showtime- 797,000 viewers which was only broken by Fat Actress (which later sunk to less than 200,000) and The Tudors, 4 weeks ago.

I loved Dead Like Me and still miss it terribly. My teen daughter and I still have long discussions on things like how Daisy died, and the yet to come breakdown of Joy (George's mother) and where Regie would have ended up (I think she would have figured out that Millie was George), and I just can't not mention Mason the best loser in the world...
so anyway back to your question...
It's really hard to say since crap like PCD and ANTM get better ratings than genre and cult shows like Supernatural and VM. So given that I do think DLM would still have more viewers than on Showtime, but they wouldn't be blockbuster and it would have been canceled anyway...unless Dawn Ostroff would've championed the cause.
Maybe a better place for it would be on SCIFI, FX or even USA and paired with Dead Zone. DLM would fit the USA "Characters" promo very nicely.
