The CW has placed full season orders for The Originals, Reign and The Tomorrow People.
Said CW President Mark Pedowitz in announcing the renewals:
“In just a few seasons, we have built a much stronger primetime schedule. Our on-air ratings are up year to year, and our digital viewing continues to grow exponentially.
"We're excited about the creative momentum the producers have established for all three of our new series, and now our fans will have the chance to see the full stories unfold for them this season. With the additional episodes ordered, plus two new dramas and new reality for midseason, we’ll be able to continue our commitment to adding more original programming all year long.”
Overall this fall, The CW is up 9% in total viewers and 10% in the key advertising demographic of 18-49-year olds.
All three just-renewed shows air new episodes this week.
