The younger-skewing network has handed out early renewals for 11 of its series. They are: Arrow (season five), Crazy Ex-Girlfriend (season two), Legends of Tomorrow (season two), The Flash (season three), iZombie (season three), Jane the Virgin (season three), The Originals (season four), Reign (season four), Supernatural (season 12), The Vampire Diaries (season eight) and The 100 (season four).
That is all 10 of the series currently on the air and Reign, which returns next month. The network is not revealing episode counts — or when each of the series would be slated as Mark Pedowitz remains committed to a year-round schedule that includes making a bolder push with originals in the typically lower-rated summer period.
I was really scared for Crazy Ex Girlfriend so I'm thrilled it's coming back. I hope they have a bigger push for it since it won the channel an award. The show is too good to keep being THIS ignored.
Honestly, this seems like bad business. Cuz they have a fair number of shows flopping right now. But I guess CW's profit margins are low anyway, so...eh?
