Following the announcement of their Fall 2012 schedule, The CW has now released first looks at new shows Beauty and the Beast and The Carries Diaires.

The latter is a spin off of Sex and the City and actually serves as a prequel.

The first three photos below are from Carries Diaries. The final photo is from Beauty and the Beast (the two leads):

  This is gonna feel like Beastly all over again. WHY??? At least fairy tales are the new thing. I got sick of all the vampire shows.

Wow… The beast doesn’t look like a beast at all… Way to fail at rebooting television series, guys… Bring back TSC!

However, they did a really good job of making Carrie look like a younger version of her Sex and the City self…

Um. Really CW? One scar for the Beast? Please tell me you released the wrong photo. I am disappointed. I’d rather watch Beastly…

  I remember hearing the Beast in this version only becomes a beast when he’s angry..

While Anna Sophia Robb looks really stunning, all I care about is a second season of The Secret Circle.

Kristin Kreuk back on the CW? I would have assumed from her Smallville days that she was aware of the epic fail that is Dawn Ostroff and the CW as a whole…

I am really looking forward to both of these shows!! I’m a HUGE fan of Kristen Kreuk so I can’t wait for Beauty and the Beast and I’ve been excited about The Carrie Diaries ever since I heard The CW was thinking about picking it up!
