Hart of Dixie and Nikita Renewed, Secret Circle and Ringer Axed

The CW isn't just renewing Gossip Girl for next season; the network is also bringing back Hart of Dixie for a second season, as well as a third season for Nikita.

The CW isn't just renewing Gossip Girl for next season; the network is also bringing back Hart of Dixie for a second season, as well as a third season for Nikita. It's not happy news across the board though; freshman series Ringer and The Secret Circle are both dead and buried. On the bright side, The CW has a full plate of promising new shows, including the much-anticipated Carrie Diaries, so there's still plenty to look forward to next Fall.

Kristoffer Polaha plays Henry on Ringer, a character that's been experiencing a lot of setbacks lately, so when I sat down to chat with the actor, we talked about where Henry might go next. Like the tone of the CW thriller, Polaha says Henry might be going dark, and he also talked about why he wants Henry and Siobhan to get back together. We also chatted about Polaha's previous role on the short-lived but beloved Life Unexpected — watch now.

Will You Watch the Next Episode of Ringer?

This week The CW unveiled new drama Ringer premiered, and you finally got to see Sarah Michelle Gellar back in action.

This week The CW unveiled new drama Ringer premiered, and you finally got to see Sarah Michelle Gellar back in action. The pilot introduces us to Gellar's twin characters Bridget and Siobhan, their respective drama, and the beginning of the mystery that will unfold over the course of the first season. Elements of the series feel pretty cheesy, but it definitely has me hooked long enough to see what happens in the next episode (the male eye candy in the forms of Ioan Gruffudd and Kristoffer Polaha is just another incentive). So now it's time to hear from you — do you think you'll keep watching Ringer?

Fall TV Preview

Pilot Scoop: Ringer

Fall TV is back, and tonight, TV veteran Sarah Michelle Gellar returns to TV with new show Ringer.

Fall TV is back, and tonight, TV veteran Sarah Michelle Gellar returns to TV with new show Ringer. The former Buffy stars in The CW's drama series in a dual role as identical twins Bridget and Siobhan. When there's an accident, the ladies are involved in an identity-switcheroo that leads them both to danger.

  • What it's about: Aside from their looks, these twins couldn't be more different; Bridget is a recovering addict and ex-stripper, while Siobhan is a wealthy, Manhattan-dwelling socialite. When Bridget fears for her life because she's the star witness in a mobster's murder case, she goes on the run and ends up visiting her sister, whom she hasn't seen in six years. In a mysterious boating incident, Siobhan disappears — and Bridget takes the opportunity to assume her sister's identity and life in New York as a way to hide from the mobster. However, Bridget realizes she's not off the hook when she quickly discovers Siobhan's many secrets and illicit involvements.
  • Where it works: The premise and all the little twists are compelling, and the pilot ends on a cliffhanger that made me want to watch more episodes.
  • Where it doesn't: The dialogue is so painfully cheesy that it makes all the acting seem similarly bad. The show is going for a Hitchcockian vibe, but it has more of a B-movie tone, especially when combined with one of the worst green-screen scenes I've ever experienced on TV.
  • You might like this show if: You want a new mystery series but also love guilty pleasures — you have to take this show with a huge grain of salt.
  • When it's on: Tuesdays at 9 p.m. on The CW
