There’s a lot more crazy on the way. The CW has renewed their low-rated musical comedy Crazy Ex-Girlfriend for a second season for the 2016-17 network television season.
On the Crazy Ex-Girlfriend series, Rebecca Bunch (Rachel Bloom) was dumped by Josh (Vincent Rodriguez III) back in high school because he felt she was over dramatic and a little bit crazy. Some 10 years later, the two run into each other in New York and Rebecca’s feelings for Josh are rekindled. He’s moving to California and she decides to do the same. Has anything really changed? The rest of the cast includes Santino Fontana, Donna Lynne Champlin, Pete Gardner, and Vella Lovell.
So far, the series has averaged a 0.31 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 892,000 viewers. It is the lowest-rated CW series of the season in both categories. However, it has been popular with some critics and Bloom won a Golden Globe earlier this year for the role.
The other series renewed today by The CW are The 100, The Flash, Arrow, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, The Originals, Jane the Virgin, iZombie, Reign, Supernatural, and The Vampire Diaries.
What do you think? Do you like Crazy Ex-Girlfriend? Are you surprised that it’s been renewed for a second season? Should it have been cancelled instead?
CUTE SHOW AN FUNNY LIKED IT
Love Love LOVE “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend”.
Rachel Bloom’s comedic writing (and song writing), along with the musical talents of all the actors is simply a joy to watch. Especially if you’re into musicals. Thank goodness for Season 2! If the CW isn’t smart enough to pick up for season three, I think that Rachel Bloom should search out Netflix.
How about putting up a nice billboard in Manhattan and California for this show. It needs more marketing.
I LOVE this show. It is my favorite TV show. Finally there is something on TV for educated viewers! I am a senior and fought for women’s rights in the 60s when I was young like Rebecca. I am just delighted this show will be back.
Thank you so much for believing in this show, CW!! I’m a creative writer, and this is the bright spot in my week, especially if I’m feeling down. This show could not be cast any better and the chemistry between / among the actors is phenomenal! I don’t care for musicals at all, but I love this show
I adore Crazy Ex Girlfriend! It is a show that embraces feminism in a brilliant light. I find this show to be important for many to watch in order to understand various topics that this show portrays.

Great news. I really enjoy everything about this show. The singing is terrific and the lyrics are spot on. Only minor suggestion is moving away from the chasing Josh episodes and let Rebecca explore other avenues in her crazy life. Thanks a million CW, it was the right decision.
