Telly’s Take
Will The CW cancel or renew Arrow for season seven? Despite sizable, sustained ratings declines, Arrow still does very well for the network. I suspect The CW will renew Arrow for a seventh season. Maybe that will be the end but I tend to doubt it. I’ll keep an eye on the Nielsens and will update here as appropriate. Subscribe for free updates on any Arrow cancellation or renewal news.
4/2/18 update: The CW has ordered a seventh season of Arrow for the 2018-19 season. Details here.

What do you think? Are you glad that the Arrow TV show has been renewed for a seventh season? How would you feel if The CW had cancelled this TV series, instead?
Renew Arrow for a seventh and final season, please. Because Stephen Amell is contracted to The CW until 2019. What season seven needs is a special episode. Like Superman (Tyler Hoechlin) traveling from Earth 38 to Earth 1 teaming up with the Green Arrow and Team Arrow. Just say Kara lets Clark borrow her device that travels to other earths or she gives him a spare one. This future Arrow episode could be better than Supergirl episode, Worlds Finest.
So, by saying you want Arrow to quit, you are putting so many people out of jobs. And besides, I think that the Oliver and Felicity approach and the rest of his team are a good thing. You know why? Because it brings dimension to Oliver Queen’s character. It brings dimension to the CW and DC Comics. And maybe, maybe, it isn’t as good as the first season, but maybe they were trying some new things, trying new DIMENSION. See, dimension is key here. But I assure you, since the ratings have dropped, they are probably trying to reign in… Read more »
The TV shows starts and ends, THE SHOWS with LOW RATINGS like Arrow must be stopped because they FAILED ,in this situation the best thing is to stop this show and begin another (so we have new jobs for people) and new viewers for the channel. I haven’t seen in TV history worst actress that this Emily Bett Richards hopefully she is not in any other movie – series and will not miss her from TV. If for new dimenssions you mean more screen play for F.Smoke to say “I will hack the internet” so yes it is reveland to… Read more »
I don’t watch Arrow since season 3 BUT I watch FLASH and LEGENDS, why the hell I must forced to watch Arrow garbage show due to these crossovers ? oh thats why to gain a garbage show some viewers in order to be saved from cancellation. Nope like it or not real DC Comic readers/viewers abandoned arrow since season 3 that why the ratings went to hell, the remainings are F.Smoke viewers and very very few others who wants to see how the story ends.
Ratings of this show went to hell since season 2-3 Green Arrow fans abandoned the show because it had nothing to do anymore about Green Arrow but for a team of people who guided by an anoying computer tech (by the way all the words from Felicity about technology is an insult not only for us who work on informatics but to the whole world who worked for any tech inovation). Please just cancel this show because we want a new Green Arrow based on the DC Comic as it should be and not to this garbage. Just look the… Read more »
Alright everyone who said it should get canceled needs to stop. There are more of us that love this show then their are people who don’t. If you don’t like it don’t watch it is simple. Don’t complain that’s it’s bad because it’s not. Everyone likes different things we like this show and always will. It makes me happy to watch it and I’ve learned a lot, after I watch it I know I’m going to have an amazing day just because I watched my favorite show. I feel like I’m apart of there family. So please renew it and… Read more »

Cancel this garbage
Please cancel after next season or this season need to end like the simpsons. Tired like much more better ones out there please.
Please bring it back. Love this show
Please do not cancel, please renew I need this show to go on for a long time. A couple more years please!! It’s not just a show there a family that has come together and don’t deserve to be ripped apart. So many people love this show and would die if it got cancelled anytime soon. So please DON’T let fans down and cancel the best tv show. Renew it please renew it.
I hope Arrow gets renewed. Moving the show to Thursday to compete against football was not a smart move. Last season Prometheus kept viewers on pins and needles…..this season they counted on Black Siren to be the next big bad and its not going well…..she’s in and out of their lair, walking around in broad daylight……this season the team is clueless…. show is already lacking in the PR Department…..
The problem with Black Siren isn’t what she’s doing, it’s that she’s never there. She disappears for episodes at a time instead of being properly utilized to the fullest extent. Also, she was never going to be the big bad like Prometheus and the show never entertained the idea that she was. She’s simply another character and I also don’t think anyone is buying her staying a villain anyway. Those of us who are Black Canary fans simply wanted to see Laurel Lance actually get some quality material to work with. This season has been a poor followup to last… Read more »
If arrow get canceled means the writers failed this show and their fans
I hope they renew arrow its my favorite show on tv and I know there have been rumors of it possibly getting canceled but please don’t I would cry for the rest of my life.
Cancel this garbage as soon as possible, I haven’t see stupidiest series of this they are an insult to Green Arrow. How DC didn’t protect their product and allowed this garbage to the air. The stupidiest event in TV history “Whole Internet is stored to a room” , ya and an ocean to water glass for god shake
Please cancel after next season or this season need to end like the simpsons.
