The CW Renews Arrow, Black Lightning & More

The CW has given early renewals to ten of its prime-time series for the 2019-20 season, including the freshman hits Charmed and Legacies.

Arrow is set for season eight, Black Lightning for season three and DC’s Legends of Tomorrow for season five. Dynasty will head into its third, while The Flash enters its sixth, Riverdale its fourth and Supergirl its fifth. Supernatural, meanwhile, has been renewed for season 15.

“This season, we expanded our prime-time schedule to six nights with the addition of Sunday, which has been an unqualified success for the network, our affiliates and our advertisers,” said Mark Pedowitz, president of The CW. “In addition to growing our schedule across the week, we also continue to add more year-round programming. The early renewal of these signature CW series gives us a head start on laying out the 2019-2020 season, and this is just the beginning. These shows provide a strong foundation for our multiplatform programming strategy, and we look forward to building on this with even more returning and new shows as we approach the May upfront.”
