Sources confirm to TVLine exclusively that CBS Television Studios is developing a reboot of the ’80s cult classic Beauty and the Beast for The CW.
The new version will not only modernize and CW-up the love story but also add a procedural twist. Nice pedigree, too: Without a Trace vet Jennifer Levin and Brothers & Sisters‘ Sherri Cooper will pen the script and serve as executive producers.
I’m told this was the first project new CW president Mark Pedowitz discussed with CBS Studios head David Stapf when he succeeded Dawn Ostroff in the spring.

Beauty and the Beast was the worst thing about Saturday afternoon TV.
No, I don't think I will fuck Stummies.

It was also the worst thing about my childhood. I was the Beast in our school play until we had a kid sign up late steal the lead and then I got resorted to playing the Baker. So instead of hanging out with the prettiest girl in school I got resorted to wearing a chef hat and 2 lines. I was praying he got sick because I was his backup.
