The CW has just officially announced that they've picked up Supergirl (season four), The Flash (season five), Legends of Tomorrow (season four), Arrow (season seven), Black Lightning (season two), Crazy Ex-Girlfriend (season four), Dynasty (season two), Jane the Virgin (season five), Riverdale (season three), and Supernatural (season fourteen) for new seasons set to air this fall.
Considering the network is expanding to Sunday nights this October, it probably shouldn't come as a major surprise to see pretty much everything get a renewal since, for the first time ever, they'll have to fill an additional night with original content. The CW president Mark Pedowitz provided the following statement during his announcement this morning, "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. By picking these 10 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. And I’m especially happy that we’ll continue to work with the incredibly talented casts, producers, and writers who create the series our fans are so passionate about.”
As for their currently-airing midseason series, which include iZombie, The 100, Life Sentence, and Valor, their fates are expected to be determined sometime in May, although it's not looking particularly good for the latter two. The CW also currently has nine pilots in the works for the new television year, including the Supernatural spinoff Wayward Sisters, but they have yet-to-make a decision on which series they plan to order.
