Great news for fans of The CW as the netlet renewed a whopping 10 shows today, including Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Dynasty, Riverdale and Jane the Virgin for the 2018-2019 television season.
The CW has always championed its shows with low ratings and that was proven today with Dynasty earning a second season. Crazy Ex-Girlfriend will finish its run with a fourth and final season. Supernatural, now one of the longest running shows on the air, and a stalwart CW hit, will be back for a 14th season.
All five DC series will be returning as well; Arrow (season 7), The Flash (season 5), DC’s Legends of Tomorrow (season 4), Supergirl (season 4) and Black Lightning (season 2).
“As The CW expands to a six-night, Sunday through Friday schedule next season, we are proud to have such a deep bench of great returning series for 2018-19,” President of The CW Mark Pedowitz announced in a press release on Monday. “By picking these ten series up for next season, we have a terrific selection of programming to choose from when we set our fall schedule in May, with more still to come.”
Not announced yet are: The 100, iZombie, Life Sentence (currently the lowest rated show on the network) and Valor. We can expect word on those shows to be announced in May.
