CW skews female and younger.
Makes sense the visual branding of the network follows that

From thw SVP of brand creative:

"we landed on a reddish orange kind of hot orange that we’re branding ā€˜hot sauce.’ We think it’s cool because it’s warm, it’s energetic, it’s accessible, it stands out.ā€ The color is supplemented by a pink he’s calling ā€œicingā€ and a light green he dubs ā€œmint.ā€

Why would a US network film a game show in Australia?

Cost savings? Filming incentives? Availability of studios?

I’ve been watching days of our lives on Channel 9, I was wondering if there’s a streaming app or YouTube where I can watch old EPs and seasons.
