The CW Developing a Sweet Valley High Series

The CW has another new show in the works. Yesterday, December 13, it was announced that the network was currently developing a Gotham Knights series, now, it has been announced that the network is also developing a series based on the book series, Sweet Valley High.

Sweet Valley is the town everyone dreams of growing up in. And there’s no better example of that promise than Elizabeth Wakefield. But when her missing twin sister Jessica miraculously returns, it reignites a lifelong rivalry. It falls to new girl Enid Ruiz to discover that someone (or something) is pulling all the strings, but can she convince the twins that putting their personal war aside is the only way to drag Sweet Valley’s dark roots into the California sunshine?

Written by Francine Pascal, this is not the first time the series has been adapted for screen. A 1994 Sweet Valley High series ran for four seasons on UPN.

I love these books when I was younger, so I am holding out hope that the CW will develop it into a good series.
