Today The CW announced its fall premiere dates, including dates for the greatly-anticipated new shows Hellcats and Nikita.

America’s Next Top Model will work as the lead-in hour for Hellcats (a perfect pairing of fun, girly shows), on Wednesdays. Nikita will get a boost from The Vampire Diaries on Thursdays.

Some fans have been vocally disappointed that Supernatural season six will now air on Friday nights, but almost as many fans have voiced that they’re glad for the change in schedule due to previous TV conflicts. This just in: you can’t please everyone.

Life Unexpected has moved from Monday nights to Tuesday nights, following One Tree Hill.

Pairing their two, established, slow-but-steady shows 90210 and Gossip Girl on Monday nights, this game plan looks pretty great to us.
