The CW Announces Programming for the 2019/2020 Season
The CW has announced its lineup for the upcoming season, with several returning favorites such as All American, Arrow, and The Flash, and the network’s newest superhero series, Batwoman.
“The CW heads into next season riding a wave of creative momentum and expansion, with more original programming all year round, and a new Fall line-up boasting scripted series in every single time period across our six-night schedule. We have 14 returning series for next year and adding to that three exciting new shows, including our newest superhero, the thrilling BATWOMAN, the mystery and suspense of NANCY DREW and the aspirational KATY KEENE, based on the Archie Comics characters,” said Mark Pedowitz, President of The CW.
“As the original multiplatform network, combining our linear broadcast and our best in class Ad-supported digital services with our ability to harness social like no one else, The CW’s distinct brand and programming strategy perfectly positions this network to grow and thrive in the current media landscape,” Pedowitz continued.
Batwoman will be paired with Supergirl on Sunday nights, and Arrow will air on a new night — Tuesdays after The Flash.
New series Nancy Drew will follow Riverdale on Wednesdays, and Supernatural returns for its 15th and final season on Thursday nights, followed by Legacies.
The CW has five original scripted series lined up for midseason including Katy Keene, based on characters from Archie Comics, along with returning series Legends of Tomorrow, In the Dark, Roswell, New Mexico, and The 100.
