at .  Updated at .

The CW has some big decisions to make. 

With most shows performing marginally, the network needs to establish which shows it will be taking into the 2019-2020 season.

Network politics have previously saved some of its shows based on which of the studios own them, and with most of the shows coming from Warner Bros. TV group, it wouldn't be all that surprising if Charmed ekes out a renewal over one of the DC TV properties. 

Have a look at the slide below to find out where your favorite shows stand!

 

1. The Flash - Certain Renewal

The Flash is down over 10 percent to a 0.7 rating in its fifth season. It is still The CW's highest-rated series and plays well with delayed viewing.

The ratings for its season premiere swelled to a 1.4 rating with a week of DVR factored in.

2. Supernatural - Likely Renewal

Supernatural has slipped in Season 14. It is currently averaging a 0.4 rating in the demo, and gets a decent boost with delayed viewing factored in. It will likely go on as long as the leads are still interested.

3. Supergirl - Certain Renewal

Moving to a new night, Supergirl has dipped a tenth to a 0.4 rating. It still adds a lot of viewers with delayed viewing, so it's hard to imagine The CW parting with it quite yet.

4. Arrow - Certain Renewal

Arrow moved to a new night this fall and is averaging the same 0.4 rating it had last season. As the show to kickstart The CW's DC TV universe, it's safe for a while yet.

5. Riverdale - Certain Renewal

Riverdale may not be scaling new ratings heights, but it is averaging a 0.4 rating. With seven days of DVR added in, the premiere surged to a 1.2 rating. It's not going anywhere.

6. Charmed - Certain Renewal

Despite the backlash, this reboot has been performing decently on Sunday nights. It is currently averaging a 0.3 rating. It is building over 100 percent with a week of DVR factored in. It's safe.

7. Legacies - Likely Renewal

Legacies has been a consistent performer for The CW since it debuted. It is averaging a 0.3 rating. Barring a midseason collapse, it will be back for another season.

8. Black Lightning - Likely Renewal

Black Lightning is down considerably in its second season. It is averaging a 0.3 rating

If it can stay steady in the demo when it moves to Mondays, it will likely be back.

9. DC's Legends of Tomorrow - Could Go Either Way

DC's Legends of Tomorrow is down considerably in Season 4. Currently averaging a 0.3 rating, it is the lowest-rated DC TV property on the network.

The numbers in the coming weeks should help make its fate clearer. If it starts to average a 0.2, it's likely done.

10. All American - Could Go Either Way

All American is garnering rave reviews, but it is struggling. A 0.2 rating is not great for Monday-Thursday CW drama. However, it has shown stability. The network might try it out on another night next season.

11. Dynasty - Certain Renewal

Dynasty is showing stability on Fridays this fall. Despite a 0.2 rating, it has a rich Netflix deal which means the show makes a profit before the episodes even hit the air. It will remain on the network for another few years yet.

12. Crazy Ex-Girlfriend - Ending

This comedy-drama is averaging a 0.1 rating. It was announced in May this the fourth season is the final one.
