Since this has been rolling around in my brain for awhile, I figured I should start a topic about it. Everyone say how you would save The CW. If u don't like the network, say what you would do. If u like it, great but tell us why and if u would do anything.
First thing I would do is bring back Michigan J. Frog! Michigan was THE quintessential mascot for The WB. Rather ironic since at one point, it was going to be Bugs Bunny! They changed that to Michigan before the network's launch because Bugs was everywhere and they wanted to give our favorite green guy a shot. Think it worked well too.
One day, it was decided that Michigan would be retired since the heads of The WB decided it was time to steer towards a larger demographic than just teens like they had catered to b4. So unfortunately, after his retirement Michigan would have only one more Froggy Evening: the final night of WB programming. The WB's Night Of Favorites and Farewells returned Michigan to life but barely. He was only in one nostalgic ad and at the end, tipping his hat in silhouette at the end of the night and the network. Between his retirement and the end of the net, that's the only time he was mentioned. Nice huh?
Ever since the launch of CW, something has been missing. The logo is already green so why not give the brand a more comfortable image? Bring back the Frog! Just from a press release saying he would be back, I think most of the fans of the old WB Network would tune in to see what would be done. So I say bring him back and have us Watch The Frog!
Step 1: Revive Michigan J. Frog as the spokesman and image of The CW!
