The CW Orders The Vampire Diaries Spinoff, The Originals and Renews Beauty and the Beast and Hart of Dixie

It's a busy day for TV orders. On the heels of NBC renewing five series, The CW has officially ordered The Vampire Diaries spinoff, The Originals, to series, and renewed Beauty and the Beast and Hart of Dixie.

The Originals pickup occurs only hours after the backdoor pilot episode of The Vampire Diaries setting up the spinoff aired, and was expected. Also not surprising is the renewal of Hart of Dixie, which has been fairly stable for the CW. Beauty and the Beast was seen as more of a question mark, as it has not been able to hold on to a large amount of its Vampire Diaries lead-in numbers. With The Originals ordered, we'll find out next month at CW's Upfront whether they pair it with Vampire Diaries on Thursdays and move Beauty and the Beast to another timeslot.

These orders certainly are going to raise the anxiety level for us Nikita fans. That series and The Carrie Diaries remain the only two whose fate is still undecided for The CW. It's been looking hopeful for a fourth season for Nikita, though it could possibly be a truncated one. Last year, Nikita's decision was pretty down to the wire as well, so this is familiar territory for fans of the series.
