Also renewed for another season is fellow comic book adaptation iZombie, as well as The Vampire Diaries, The Originals, Supernatural, The 100, Jane the Virgin and Crazy Ex-Girlfriend.

“The CW has become home to some of the most critically acclaimed shows on broadcast television, with a wide array of fantastic scripted series across the week, ranging from musical comedy, to superhero action, to gritty sci-fi dramas,” states The CW President Mark Pedowitz. “As we continue to further our strategy of more year-round original programming, picking up these 11 series for the 2016-2017 season puts us in a great position of having proven, high-quality shows to launch in the fall as well as midseason and summer of 2017.”
