I certainly expected good numbers considering the insane amount of promotion they did for it and the nostalgia factor but I`m not sure about staying power.
Teens these days have a dime a dozen of those shows. Back then BH was not only new as a soap for teenagers but it pretty much cornered the market there.
Still, the show almost needs to not be a flop, at least in Season 1 because otherwise that whole network is done. If they can`t show to launch one lousy show that takes in the ratings, it`s adios after this Season.
And for SPN, I`m pretty sure nothing changes. They`ll get treated like the redheaded stepchild anyway but at least they`d have a network to air on. Warner would probably push for it to edge out at five Seasons and a nice 100-ep package and the CW would do it because they need both Warner and CBS and it`s a rather smallish request.
Afterwards, everything on this godforsaken network can fail, fail, fail. *g*
