The 8 Biggest Hits and Misses of the Fall TV Season9 of 9
Hit — "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend"
Categorizing a show that has yet to premiere as a hit may seem, well, crazy, but the CW is is so in love with "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend" that it has already ordered scripts for five additional episodes. The musical comedy about a woman who quits her job and moves across the country to stalk her high-school sweetheart has received rave reviews from critics.
Granted, critical acclaim and network support for "Scream Queens" did not make it a hit for FOX, but the threshold for success on the CW is much lower than it is for the other, more established networks.
The show debuts Monday, Oct. 12. We'll soon find out if fans go nuts for "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend."
