The CW Previews

Vampires, models and beautiful people converging on an apartment complex. Below we have a few clips from each of The CW's new shows for next season. Also supposedly the Gossip Girl spin-off isn't totally dead quite yet, which sort of ok, considering last week's test run on Gossip Girl wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be. I was glad at the time that the entire episode wasn't dedicated to the spin off, like some shows do, but even Lilly's 80's flashback weren't half bad.

The previews:

Vampire Diaries
These clips are kinda short and don't really show much of anything.




The Beautiful Life
Vicious models, pill popping, hot beats, limo, flashing lights, NYC - all packed into just two little minutes. We'll how it stretches to an hour.


Melrose Place
I'm usually the last one to point this sort of thing out, but these three clips are full of some terrible acting. I tend to be rather forgiving in this area for most shows as long as the story is good, but I definitely don't see that here.
