The CW gave their announcement of the shows they'll renew for the next season, and a glaring absence in the list for us Superhero fans is the not yet Superman Adventures of Clark Kent in Smallville. Though there's no need to worry... yet... I think... because these are just announcement for shows that are receiving early notice of their renewals. Smallville can just wait on their mailbox to receive their renewal notice.
Those CW shows that got renewed are Vampire Diaries(Well if you like Twilight, you love this... who am I kidding nobody in this site likes twilight), Gossip Girl(it's now the time to watch this, and see if Blake Lively is good enough for our Green Lantern), and Supernatural(Jensen Ackles fans rejoice! Yeah all two of you! just kidding).
You could read the whole press release below(like it matters):
The series receiving early renewals include this season’s breakout hit THE VAMPIRE DIARIES, The CW’s most-watched show (4.6 million viewers) and the network’s number one show among adults 18-34 (2.5/8). THE VAMPIRE DIARIES premiere generated the largest audience in network history for a series debut (5.7 million total viewers). THE VAMPIRE DIARIES has improved The CW’s performance Thursday at 8:00 p.m. by 114% among women 18-34 this season. The network also renewed fan favorite SUPERNATURAL, which will enter its sixth season next year. SUPERNATURAL has one of the most loyal audiences of any show on television and does heroic work in a perennially tough time period. It has improved over last season among women and adults 18-34 (29% and 8%, respectively) this season, a remarkable accomplishment for a fifth-year show.
Also given early pickups for next season are The CW’s Monday night sensation GOSSIP GIRL,which is The CW’s number one show among its target demographic of women 18-34, and Tuesday’s trend-setting drama, 90210, which sees some of TV’s largest percent increases from DVR playback, nearly doubling its women 18-34 live-only ratings once live+7 data is included. Wednesday anchor AMERICA’S NEXT TOP MODEL will also be back for cycles 15 and 16 with superstar Tyra Banks and new groups of aspiring models. AMERICA’S NEXT TOP MODEL continues to rank second in the competitive Wednesday 8:00 p.m. hour among young women 18-34 (3.4/10).
I'm really hoping for a tenth season of Smallville or a first season of "METROPOLIS". After a strong season 9 they really should pick this up again, and let us see more DCU goodness.
-ACCESS out. Godspeed and MABUHAY!
