The CW shared some major news on Tuesday about its current slate of programming. Deadline reported that The CW renewed seven shows including The Flash, Riverdale, and Nancy Drew. The news comes after several of the shows faced cancellations rumors, leaving their fates up in the air until now.
Deadline noted that some of the renewals were more of a given than others. In particular, Nancy Drew was the subject of cancellation rumors after three seasons on the air.

The show’s renewal was said to have hinged on whether star Grant Gustin would come back. But in January of this year, it was reported that he was in the midst of finalizing a contract for Season 9, paving the way for the show’s renewal. What other shows at The CW were renewed on Tuesday?
