The CW renews seven shows including Arrow, The Flash, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow and Supergirl

January 8, 2017 by Gary Collinson

Good news for fans of The CW’s DC universe, as the network has announced today that it has given early renewals to Arrow, The Flash, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow and Supergirl, as well as its other hit shows Jane the Virgin, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and Supernatural.

In addition to the above, the network is also reviving another DC show, Constantine, albeit as an animated series on CW Seed.

“Over the past several seasons, The CW has built a schedule of proven performers, from our lineup of DC superheroes, to critically acclaimed comedies, to sci-fi dramas,” said CW president Mark Pedowitz on the renewals. “Early pickups of these seven series now allow our producers to plan ahead for next season, and gives us a solid base to build on for next season, with original scripted series to roll out all year long.”

Originally published January 8, 2017. Updated April 16, 2018.
