CW slates heavy dose of reality

May 17, 2007 Three more reality series are on deck for midseason: a second season of "The Pussycat Dolls Present" as well as the mother-daughter beauty contest "Crowned" and the dating show "Farmer Wants a Wife." Along with "CW Now" and "Online Nation" (previously "User-Generated Show"), the CW will introduce four new scripted series next season: the dramas "Gossip Girl," "Reaper" and a South Africa-set project and the comedy "Aliens in America." The Tyra Banks-hosted "Model" is expected to stay put at 8 p.m. Wednesday, followed by hot scripted newcomer "Gossip," a new teen drama from "The O.C." creator Josh Schwartz.
