The post Warner Bros. Bringing Constantine, Person of Interest, Forever to New York Comic-Con appeared first on TVHackr.

From creator Jason Rothenberg (Body Politic) and based on the Kass Morgan novel, The 100 tells the story of a world nearly 100 years removed from nuclear Armageddon. The only survivors of the disaster were those in a series of 12 international space stations, who inherited the responsibility of keeping the human race alive while working toward making Earth inhabitable again. With resources becoming scarcer, those in charge decide to send 100 juvenile delinquents to the ground as a way of testing the condition of Earth, but what they find about the place they long to call home may turn out to be surprising. The series stars Eliza Taylor (Neighbours), Bob Morley (Home and Away), Marie Avgeropoulos (Cult), Henry Ian Cusick (Lost), and Paige Turco (Person of Interest).

Starring Matt Lanter (90210) and Aimee Teegarden (Friday Night Lights), Star-Crossed follows Emery and Roman, a teenage human female and alien male who have a brief encounter as children. They find their way back to one another when Roman becomes a part of a program meant to assimilate aliens into human society, only humans aren’t receptive to the controlled introduction of aliens and soon, Roman and the eight others who populate the high school are in danger. In addition to Lanter and Teegarden, Star-Crossed stars Grey Damon (Twisted), Malese Jow (The Social Network), Brina Palencia (Upstream Color), Greg Finley (The Secret Life of the American Teenager), and Titus Makin Jr (A Cinderella Story: Once Upon a Song).

The 100 premieres Wednesday, March 19th at 9:00, with the first three episodes repeating Tuesdays at 9:00 beginning March 25th, while Star-Crossed is set to debut Monday, February 17th at 8:00.

The post The CW: Watch New Trailers for The 100 and Star-Crossed appeared first on TVHackr.

The Futon Critic has confirmed several scheduling moves from The CW following the release of the network’s midseason plans earlier this month. Most notably, post-apocalyptic drama The 100 will be having its first three episodes repeated on Tuesdays beginning March 25th at 9:00. Fellow new midseason drama Star-Crossed will have one of its own episodes repeated, though it will just be the pilot following a Tuesday encore of The Vampire Diaries. In fact, much of the moves the network confirmed had to do with how they were planning on doling out their encores, as Supernatural, The Originals, and The Vampire Diaries are all being dispatched to different nights than they regularly air in order to keep the schedule afloat through the premieres of The 100 and Star-Crossed.

In addition to the schedule juggling of established hits, the network will be showing the broadcast premiere of sci-fi flick Attack the Block twice in February, while Whose Line is It Anyway? moves into its Friday night timeslot a few weeks early with repeats scheduled to air with The Originals and one-hour special Colin & Brad: Two Man Group.

The series premiere of The 100 is set to air Wednesday, March 19th at 9:00 on The CW, with Star-Crossed premiering Monday, March 17th at 8:00. You can check out the rest of The CW’s midseason moves here.
