More models, geeks, beauties and OTH-ers

Since Asia, who danced like a drag queen, didn't quite work out for the Pussycat Dolls last year, they're back this February to find another doll.

"Pussycat Dolls Present: Girlicious" is one of three reality shows that The CW boasts this upcoming midseason in order to provide original programming to its schedule. "Girlicious" will premiere Monday, Feb. 18 at 9 p.m. ET/PT, following "Gossip Girl," in its new day and time, beginning Jan. 28. Although there has been no indication that these will be new episodes of the freshman drama, it's been wisely moved out of the path of FOX's juggernaut "American Idol."

As far as Tuesdays go, "One Tree Hill" will finally make its midseason debut (new episodes, new era in their lives) on Jan. 8, while the few fresh episodes of that devilish comedy "Reaper" will begin their run on Jan. 15. Fast forward to March 11, and the fifth season of the social experiment reality show "Beauty & the Geek" will debut.

Paulina Porizkova will try her hand at judging for the 10th cycle of "America's Next Top Model" on Wednesday, Feb. 20 at 8 p.m. ET/PT, followed by an encore presentation of "Girlicious."

"Reaper" makes yet another move, however. After returning on Tuesday, Jan. 15, it will make a leap on Feb. 28 to Thursdays following "Smallville," which still appears to have a handful of new episodes yet to take flight.

Beginning Sunday, Feb. 10, the CW's new lineup for the day will feature its entertainment trend program "CW Now" at 7 p.m. ET/PT, followed by an hour block of "Everybody Hates Chris." Apparently "Chris" had shot a whole load of its episodes in advance, and so will be the draw with its first half hour as a repeat and second half hour as new material. "Aliens in America," "Girlfriends" and "The Game" round out the evening.
