First Look: Surviving the Filthy Rich
Given that 90210 hasn't even cast its father yet, it's safe to say it'll be a while before we see clips of that show. But in the meantime, we can at least check out another one of the CW's new shows about the wealthy and powerful: Surviving the Filthy Rich.
The show centers on Megan, a 23-year-old Ivy League graduate — played by JoAnna Garcia, who recently appeared in Reba and thus is no stranger to the CW — who gets fired from her magazine job and becomes a live-in tutor to the twin granddaughters of a cosmetics mogul.
The CW's Fall Schedule: My Take
The CW announced its intention to bring a bunch of rich kids back to the big screen at the network's upfront presentation yesterday, scheduling a 90210 remake and a show about surviving the "filthy rich". Now that I've had some time to mull it over, here are some of my thoughts on the schedule:
- I'm surprised that the CW is putting 90210 and Surviving the Filthy Rich on the same night. Why not pair Gossip Girl with 90210 and One Tree Hill with Filthy Rich?
The CW's Fall Schedule: Rich Kids and Beverly Hills
Hmmm, think the CW knows its target demographic? At its upfront presentation today, the network introduced several new shows that seem to appeal to the same audience that tunes in for, say, Gossip Girl.
One of those shows is the 90210 remake, now known simply as 90210 (pictured above), which will pair on Tuesday nights with another show about wealthy teens, Surviving the Filthy Rich.
Have You Had Your Fill of Rich Folks on TV?
Between following the antics of the rich folks on ABC's Dirty Sexy Money, the "true-life" tribulations of the Real Housewives of the O.C. — and now their New York City counterparts — on Bravo, and the MTV series that follows wealthy teenagers as they plan for their extravagant 16th birthday parties, do we really need another program about rich people?
The CW renewed Gossip Girl and is now developing another book-to-TV series about "filthy" rich teens.
CW to Make Another Show About Filthy Rich Girls
After less than a year of following the exploits of rich teens on the Upper East Side with Gossip Girl, the CW is setting its sights on another book-to-TV adaptation, this time centering on rich teenagers in Palm Beach, Florida.
The new show will be based on Zoey Dean's young adult novel (published by Gossip Girl's same house, Alloy Entertainment) How to Teach Filthy Rich Girls, which sounds as though it starts off like The Devil Wears Prada and ends up like The Nanny Diaries — but set in Palm Beach.
According to Variety, Pushing Daisies writer and producer Rina Mimoun will write the pilot episode.
