I think it's just the best and/or first example of a canceled "female-led show" that came to mind for OP.

I also am not 100% sold on their idea that The CW is regarded as programming for women because while that was certainly true of its predecessor The WB and definitely true in its earliest stages while Gossip Girl was one of its flagship shows, its shift toward focusing on niche programming and more paranormal, science fiction, and superhero shows has changed its demographics quite a bit.

If anything, as a lifelong fan of The WB and The CW, I've missed a lot of the showy, flashy, dramatic high school soap shows they used to have in abundance.

Possibly. And like you said elsewhere, it seemed to initially be a rant about male versus female-led shows in the industry in general. Just seemed to eventually veer off into a very specific tangent.

I haven't personally followed any of the shows that have been popular on the CW over the years (about the only thing I watch on there is "Whose Line"), but I do agree with you about demographic shifts based off what I've heard about the types of shows airing on there. Heck, I see a lot of people who aren't in their teens or 20s watching a lot of those shows. I can see where people might still think the CW is a female-oriented channel, 'cause of the general assumption that more women might watch it than men...but yeah, that doesn't mean the channel's programming is specifically targeted to women only.

I think an argument could be made.

DA

The CW does seem to have a higher proportion of female-led shows than the other networks (of course, it doesn't have as many shows). Given the make-up of the other networks' shows, that implies to me that they are deliberately courting female viewers.
