As reported here, the WB’s top-rated comedy Reba was not scheduled to make the jump to the new CW network — even though it had been given a two season renewal agreement last year. It was expected that, because of the agreement, FOX would be paid one way or the other. One source put the penalty as high as $20 million, including compensating the studio for lost syndication revenue.
The new CW schedule has been announced and Reba is not on it. But, in a last minute reprieve, the CW has reportedly placed an order for a sixth season comprised of 13 new episodes. When will they air or will they air at all? It’s hard to say but, considering the production costs and the sitcom’s high WB ratings, my best guess would be that the show will be brought back to the airwaves as a midseason replacement.
Will more episodes be ordered? Time will tell. Stay tuned!
I can guarntee you that whatever station picks up Reba will get my money…and if CW doesn’t start the new episodes soon, not only will I drop the station but so will all of my family and friends. Reba has been one of the greatest shows on television ever and CW will loose so many customers for the lack of support it has offered for Reba’s fans. It would be in their best interest to begin airing ASAP, or perhaps they won’t have to worry about airing anything else at all.
My husband and I started watching Reba during our lunch break everyday. This has quickly become our family’s favorite show. We tape every episode that comes on. It’s been a long time since we have found a show that is this enjoyable. I would love to see this show continue!
I certinaly hope REBA airs, for much longer. REBA is the only show i can watch and actually feel happy. REBA brings joy to my life, which is hard for me to find. I hope the people at CW are smart enough to air the funniest, joy bringing show ever!!
I love watching Reba so much I can’t wait to watch it each week.I have all the seasons and wait impatiently for the next one to come.
I want Reba to be put back on
all new shows. There isn’t a
show on TV. that is as good.
Why in the world would a station take off a show that
good? I would like to know.
Some of these things they put
on there isn’t worth watching.
If WB is silly enough to drop
them, I sure hope another station isn’t that silly, and pick them up.
HEY I ALSO HAVE CHANNEL 23 CW
BUT ITS NOTHING BUT RERUNS.
MY SISTER MADE A COMMENT THAT BJ LOST A LOT OF WEIGHT AND THOSE ARE THE EPISODES I WANT TO SEE.
Okay I have channel 23 and it’s the new cw and It shows reba (one full hour) everyday at four. I thought you just might want to know all you Reba fans out there!
I LOVE REBA. I HOPE IT COMES BACK. I HAVE BEEN WATCHING ALL THE RE-RUNS ON LIFETIME. BUT I WANT TO SEE NEW ONES.
My whole family loves the REBA show. It is the one family show we CAN ALL watch. It is a show that DEMOSTRATES how families deal with difficult life situations. Besides being hilarious funny it was a GOOD CLEAN FAMILY show…In today society were all we witness on TV is VIOLENCE, SEX and FOUL LANGUAGE. We ALL NEED TO see more GOOD CLEAN FAMILY TV SHOWS. REBA WAS ONE THE TOP FAMILY SHOWS! I Really hope they bring it back…
I have been hooked on Reba for a couple of years now, and watch it everyday twice a day on Lifetime TV. I am really disappointed that Reba may not air any more. I think she is the Lucile Ball of our time. I hope that someone gets smart and puts Reba back on the air. We all need to laugh, and Reba knows how to do it right.
I can’t believe Reba has not been renewed. I can only assume it is because it isn’t trashy enough. Reba is a good, clean and very funny comedy. Our family loves it. We’ve purchased all the seasons that are out on DVD. I will certainly miss her on Friday nights. I can guarantee you that whatever network picks up the show, I’ll switch to that network and watch it.

CW, you blew it! REBA is one of the great all-time sitcoms. Bring it back soon!
Reba is by far the most funniest, entertaining and magically captivating sitcom ever. Once I laughed so hard during an episode that I actually choked and had difficulty breathing. Actually, when I’m on the road alone in my car or at work and Reba comes to my mind, I start cracking up like there’s someone actually tickling me to death. I’ve actually told my husband that I would love to have Barbara Jean as our neighbor ! Go figure. Not only is Reba an awesome funny show, but it carries some very significant and serious subjects and advice which give… Read more »
