The CW Orders More Scripts For THE FLASH Ahead Of Series Premiere
The first episode of The Flash hasn't aired as of yet, but in a sign that the network are extremely confident in the series and that they will give it a full 22-episode run, The CW have now ordered an additional three scripts. Hit the jump for further details!
The buzz surrounding The Flash is extremely positive and the team working on the series have already shot a number of episodes of The CW's latest comic book adaptation. However, if ratings are poor, it likely won't last beyond the planned crossover with Arrow! As of right now though, the network are clearly confident that they have a hit on their hands as they've ordered an additional three scripts for the show. Deadline points out that, "Giving any type of order to new broadcast series several weeks before their debut is unusual and comes after both The Flash and Jane had delivered a couple of more episodes, with the CW executives said to be very pleased with that they have seen. The CW brass like having the network’s new fall series prepared for a possible back order with pickups of additional scripts early on." We should find out whether The Flash will get a full season order a little later this year and it's looking very likely at this point.
