The CW announced the fall renewals of five hit series on Tues. (April 26) — “Gossip Girl,” “90210,” “Supernatural” and “The Vampire Diaries,” which air locally on WGN 9 Chicago. The network also greenlit the first-ever All Stars Cycle of “America’s Next Top Model,” featuring models from past seasons.

Missing from the list are long-running drama “One Tree Hill” and first year series “Hellcats” and “Nikita.” The majority of the “OTH” cast have signed on for another season, yet it still remains on the bubble as it has almost every season.

The pickups for the rest of the returning series should come as no surprise. “The Vampire Diaries” remains The CW’s most-watched series with 4 million viewers, while Season 6 of “Supernatural” is up 60% in total viewers on Friday nights, paired with departing “Smallville.”

Monday night staple “Gossip Girl” ranks as the second highest-rated series among the network’s target audience of women 18-34. While “90210″ delivers modest ratings, it has the largest increase in viewers from DVR playback.

Meanwhile, “ANTM” will return with two new cycles, including the All Stars edition in the fall, which will bring back several models who became breakout characters and had the most memorable stories from past seasons. Details about the cast, judges and prizes will be announced at a later date.

All five series will return next fall. The CW will unveil its official fall schedule in May during the annual upfront presentations to advertisers.

The Universal and Media Rights Capital’s comedy centers on a man who as young boy made a Christmas wish that his Teddy Bear would come to life and be his best friend forever.

Jessica Stroup, one of the stars of TV’s 90210, has joined the cast of Ted, Universal and Media Rights Capital’s comedy co-written by and being directed by Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane.

The movie centers on a man who as young boy made a Christmas wish that his Teddy Bear would come to life and be his best friend forever. Twenty-five years later, the bear is still at his side, but has now evolved into a cursing, smoking, delinquent (voiced by MacFarlane) that is preventing the man from maturing.

Mark Wahlberg is the grown man. The movie also counts Mila Kunis, Joel McHale, Giovanni Ribisi and Patrick Warburton among its cast. Stroup will play Kunis’ office co-worker, a woman who has slept with their boss (McHale), a man of many fetishes.

Producing Ted are MacFarlane, Scott Stuber and John Jacobs.

Alec Sulkin and Wellesley Wild wrote the script with MacFarlane.

Stroup, who plays Erin Silver on 90210, has done voicework in MacFarlane’s Family Guy. Her feature credits that include Prom Night and The Informers. Stroup is repped by ICM, 3 Arts Entertainment and attorney Neil E Meyer.
