I wonder if that might get picked up by a major network? Heaven knows most of their comedies are anything but.

EDIT: I read the link. The two networks are merging, and I imagine Everybody Hates Chris will make the cut.

Cripes. They show some of the more obscure OU B-Ball games here in Tulsa.

I'm a little confused about how this is going to affect local affiliates. If both local WB and UPN affiliates are owned by CBS and Warner, one station will shut down? If a UPN affiliate is owned by Fox and they don't want to join the new network, I guess they'll cease to be UPN and just become an independent?
