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

That's what I always heard was the reasoning for Nikita getting a final season of 6 episodes, so that it could have a proper conclusion for Netflix. Just googled it and http://www.webpronews.com/netflix-is-helping-shows-get-endings-2013-11/ goes into it more

Thanks for the link. I'm all for whatever gives everyone closure. I honestly am starting to think upfronts should be a bit earlier or at least networks should call the shots earlier and let showrunners know "hey, there's a strong possibility that your show won't be renewed you should wrap things up". This explains iZombie and Crazy Ex-Girlfriend.
