The CW picks up Greg Berlanti's Kung Fu reboot with Olivia Liang
The CW is making some moves today, picking up a couple more shows that will be on their 13th seasons before we know it (as all CW shows are destined to survive for far longer than anyone would expect). According to Deadline, the network has given series orders to small town drama show The Republic Of Sarah and the Kung Fu reboot from CW mogul Greg Berlanti. Those two shows have been linked for a while now, with both of them getting pilot orders at the same time back in January, though they are otherwise completely unrelated. The Republic Of Sarah stars Stella Baker as a “rebellious high school teacher” who uses “an obscure cartographical loophole to declare independence” after her town is destroyed by a mining company (we’re going to assume this is less wild than it sounds, but we’d be happy to be surprised).
