Okay I tried to post a link to the article "The CW Renews ALL 11 Series For Next Season, Including Veterans ‘Supernatural’ & ‘The Vampire Diaries’", but I kept being told that deadline is 'banned for spam' for some reason?

But anyway, awesome news! I was starting to worry about iZombie as so many people seemed convinced that the ratings were pretty terrible and it was at risk, so I'm pleasantly surprised that we're getting a third season. And I'm still here for The Vampire Diaries of course! Although I do hope that we will get confirmation on whether the 8th season is going to be the last or not, I'm not sure that it needs a 9th or 10th season, but I definitely wouldn't have been ready to let it go after this season when there's been no real build-up to it being the end

It feels strange that I only watch two CW shows these days actually, I used to watch four or five of their shows, but I'm not as into the superhero shows that they've been focusing on lately I suppose. Lol I know I'm too old for them these days, but I can't help wishing that they would bring back at least one high school focused teen show to their schedule, the WB and CW used to be known for those shows after all! Still I suppose that you can't really blame them for sticking with the male demo instead, those shows do seem to do a lot better for them ratings-wise

You know, you could have linked tvline's article :D *lol* I always am on tv-line for tv-show spoilers and the likes :D

I know I'm too old for them these days,

I'M sorry, but that's a bit of a lame excuse? I mean, I'm 32 and still love Superhero Shows, even though I'm not in the Superhero Genre at all, but I love Arrow and Flash and Legends of Tomorrow *shrugs* And that has nothing to do with the age in my eyes... but that's just my opinion!

It seems like the CW makes a lot of "strange" decisions lately, though, or doesn't care for ratins anymore, which is a good thing in some ways, because now I'm glad The Originals and iZOMBiE especially got renewed and a lot of my other shows alongside them, but I was worried about those 2 most... not sure about the survival or Reign, as those ratings are at aroun 0.2 - so I REALLY don't get it, but what do I care, right? :P

No you're right, I do absolutely enjoy those shows still and will keep watching them, but I guess I just feel a bit dodgy about watching high school focused shows when I'm in my 30's now :P

Amd yeah I can sort of understand renewing Jane The Virgin and Crazy Ex-Girlfriend as they have critical praise and awards, even though the ratings are bad, but I am surprised thst Reign is getting another season with its current ratings. The CW likes to see shows through to the end I guess!
