The CW Midseason Schedule: What's on the Move?

at .  Updated at .

The CW has announced its midseason schedule and the return dates for some of their much-loved series. 

The most shocking thing about the new schedule is that Riverdale didn't go to Tuesdays with The Flash. Instead, it will be paired with Supernatural on Thursday nights. 

Yes, you guys, Supernatural is on the move again. The series has proved to be resilient in the past, so we wouldn't expect anything less this time round. 

Retaining Control - The 100 Season 3 Episode 16

This also means that DC's Legends of Tomorrow is on the move. The sophomore series is being moved behind The Flash for the second half of Season 2. 

This will no doubt give the series a boost, but it's not like the series was doing poorly on Thursday nights. iZombie will return to Tuesdays on April 4, 2017.

The 100 will return to its original Wednesday night time period, following Arrow on February 1, 2017. It struggled to compete on Thursdays earlier this year after a strong premiere. 

The Originals will return on Friday, March 17, 2017. This is one week after The Vampire Diaries takes one final bite out of Friday nights. 

Reign will return for Season 4 on Friday, February 10, 2017. 

With all of the schedule updates, it has now been confirmed that both No Tomorrow and Frequency will have their orders capped at 13 episodes. 

The full schedule can be seen below.
