That would make for a fun night of television and iZombie's ratings aren't really good enough to be on after the network's biggest hit. Supergirl would be up against Agents of Shield but it's already aired against Gotham so it's already had comic book-y competition. (I hope iZombie continues to do well though, just...it would make sense to me). I don't think they'll waste Flash's lead in on a show that will pull high numbers for them.

Jane the Virgin is off course really good, but the ratings are tiny so they could just bump it to nine and save Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, another low rated but critically acclaimed show, for another time.

ruby24 May 12, 2016 Share May 12, 2016 (edited) Splitting SG and LOT makes so much sense now that I think about it, because it probably helps financially to not have to do the full 23 episode season of Supergirl, since we know the effects are going to wipe out a lot of these other show's budgets anyway. But it also may help with the cast's logistics issues, because they'd be done shooting a lot sooner. I would not be surprised at ALL if this is what they end up doing.

Actually, it wouldn't hurt them to trim the fat a little (James Olsen and Lucy I'm looking at you). But the way the CW should really make this work is order shorter seasons of both Supergirl and Legends and put one in the timeslot for Fall and the other for Winter so we don't have to sacrifice special efforts for either show. I would much rather have 13 good episodes of both of those shows than 23 so/so ones of either.
