The CW renews Supernatural, DC superhero shows, and more
The CW has given early renewals to seven returning series, including Supernatural and the entire DC superhero lineup. Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, Supernatural, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, and Jane the Virgin have all been renewed for the 2017-2018 season, the network announced at the Television Critics Association’s press tour on Sunday.
The future remains unclear for other returning shows like The Originals — flagship series The Vampire Diaries is ending this year — as well as midseason entries The 100 and iZombie. It was previously announced that Reign would end after season 4. New dramas Frequency and No Tomorrow were previously not picked up for full seasons, with their fates still to be determined, while Archie drama Riverdale has yet to launch.

Date: 2017-01-09 06:43 pm (UTC)Love Crazy Ex-Girlfriend! Did not watch it for the longest time bc of the title, but it's wonderful.
Supergirl remains adorable, but I miss Cat and still ship Kara with James. But yay for Alex!
Fingers crossed for iZombie!
The 100 is dead to me. ;-)

Date: 2017-01-09 07:46 pm (UTC)And I'll keep my fingers crossed for iZombie, considering how many of my friends watch it.

Date: 2017-01-09 11:40 pm (UTC)And yep, I'm guessing that both Frequency and No Tomorrow will be dropped in favour of whatever new pilots the CW wants to try out next year. They always seem to have a lot of potential new shows, and not enough slots to fit them all in!

Date: 2017-01-10 12:54 am (UTC)I think I saw both shows mentioned in an article before Christmas about what the shows needed to do to get a second season pickup since their option for the back 9 on either didn't pan out. But other than that it's been dismal.
I hope Riverdale doesn't turn out to be the same but I've already seen one review where the person had seen 6, I think, episodes and raved about pretty much everything in all of them.

Date: 2017-01-10 11:50 am (UTC)I think you need 100 eps for syndication. At least you used to.
Maybe 4 years is how long the actors contracts were for. Rather than pay them more, they can the show.

I've not even mad about this show lately, but... let it die.

Date: 2017-01-10 02:01 pm (UTC)Also, odd that the network hasn't stuck with its go-to shows, ie The Originals and The 100, but already decided to jump full on board with their internal DC verse?

Date: 2017-01-10 03:26 pm (UTC)No idea about The 100 though, but I wouldn't be surprised if it ends this year as it doesn't seem like even the fanbase is there for it any more
