The CW Renews ‘Arrow,’ ‘The Flash,’ ‘The Vampire Diaries,’ & More!
  |  @   |  

The CW, home to most of my favorite shows, has announced that 11 of its current shows will be renewed for the 2016-2017 season. Some of these are proven fan favorites like The 100, The Vampire Diaries, The Originals, Arrow, and The Flash, completely covering the primetime slots for the entire week.

Check out the rest of the list and The CW’s tweet and press release below.

The complete list is:

Arrow, iZombie, The 100, The Flash, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, The Vampire Diaries, The Originals, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Jane The Virgin, Reign, and Supernatural.

Some of the shows like Arrow, The Flash, and Jane The Virgin were a given because of their immense popularity. Supernatural and The Vampire Diaries were of a surprise to me, not because of their quality (I may not get to review them, but I still watch them religiously), but because of their longevity. Supernatural will be going into its 12th season and TVD will be heading into season 8. This speaks to not only to the writers, actors, and crew in these wonderful shows, but to the loyalty of the fans. There is an extra compliment in there for TVD, especially because of main character Elena Gilbert (Nina Dobrev) off the show this season, and the move to Friday night (usually a death toll for shows).

Congratulations to all of the renewed shows on a job well done!
