Smallville: Renewed for Season 10!

at .

Smallville won't return with a new episode until April 2.

But fans of the long-running drama have a great reason to celebrate until then: the show has been picked up for a 10th season.

This isn't a major surprise, as the series has been performing well on Friday nights. It's “dramatically improved” the network’s performance on that night across all major demographics, The CW noted in a press release.

There’s no word yet if season 10 will be the show’s last, but let's not worry about that yet.

Two weeks ago, the network extended early renewals to Gossip Girl, 90210, The Vampire Diaries, Supernatural, and America’s Next Top Model.

Things don't look as good for Melrose Place, while One Tree Hill and Life Unexpected are on the fence.
