It's official! As you can see from the Tweet above, The Flash has been given a full season order over at The CW. That means it will run (no pun intended) for a full 22-episodes, just like Arrow.
"We have had a fantastic start to our season this year, with THE FLASH launching as our most-watched series premiere ever, and JANE THE VIRGIN recognized as the best new show this season by critics across the country," The CW president Mark Pedowitz said in a statement released earlier today announcing the news. "Over the past three seasons, we have made it our mission to grow and to broaden out our audience, and to keep raising the bar with the quality and impact of our new shows, and THE FLASH and JANE have both exceeded our expectations on all counts. I'm thrilled to announce full season orders for both of these terrific new series."
This is great news for fans of the show and it now joins Gotham as having a full season order. There's no word on Constantine as of yet due to the fact that the series premiere doesn't air until this Friday, but Warner Bros.' plan to take over television with their DC Comics properties is working well so far!

UPDATE: Grant Gustin has now revealed that there will be 23 episodes in season one!
