Haskins, who has been with the network for more than a decade, was in charge of the network’s branding and promotional efforts, as well as its presence on streaming, including the free ad-supported CW Seed service. Nedick, who has been in his role since 2006, helped expand the network’s efforts to seven nights a week.
These changes represent Nexstar’s overall push to expand The CW’s reach and variety of programming, and to hopefully undo the network’s reported $100+ million losses. The network already made headlines earlier this year when it cancelled over half a dozen of its new or veteran shows — DC entries Naomi, Batwoman, and Legends of Tomorrow, as well as In the Dark, the Vampire Diaries spinoff Legacies, and the network’s reboots of Charmed, Dynasty, 4400, and Roswell, New Mexico.
At the moment, The CW’s crop of shows for the 2022-2023 season include the final season of Riverdale, as well as new seasons of The Flash, Superman & Lois, All American, Nancy Drew, Stargirl, Walker, Kung Fu, and All American: Homecoming. The network also has a trio of new shows for this upcoming fall season — the The Winchesters, the DC-inspired Gotham Knights, and the Walker prequel Walker: Independence. The Winchesters and Walker: Independence are both set to have its series premieres in the coming weeks.
