The explanation given by the WB suits is that the show does very poorly in repeats, so they decided to run Beauty and the Geek 2 nonstop through February, and then resume Everwood in March with nothing but new episodes through May.
I'm starting to think TV series would be better served this way -- Two shows share the same timeslot during the year. Run 22 episodes of Prison Break in fall and winter, then 22 episodes of "24" in spring and summer.
