The CW execs want to keep the Arrow TV show in their quiver. The smallest network has given the Wednesday night action series an early renewal order for season six. It’s expected to kick off during the fall of the 2017-18 season.
On Arrow, billionaire playboy Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) was shipwrecked on a remote island in the South China Sea and presumed dead for five years. He returned home a changed man, bent on righting the wrongs of his family and fighting injustice. Other characters in season five are played by Katie Cassidy, Willa Holland, David Ramsey, Paul Blackthorne, Emily Bett Rickards, Echo Kellum, Josh Segarra, John Barrowman, and Colton Haynes.
The season five ratings for Arrow have seen a significant drop this season, currently averaging a 0.74 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 2.04 million viewers. That’s down by nearly 22% in the demo and down by 18% in viewers.
Still, Arrow remains one of the most popular shows on The CW network and connects to their three other superhero shows. It’s no surprise that the series have been renewed for season six.
The next original episode of season five airs on January 25th.
The CW also renewed six other TV shows today — Crazy Ex-Girlfriend (season three), DC’s Legends of Tomorrow (season three), The Flash (season four), Jane the Virgin (season four), Supergirl (season three), and Supernatural (season 13).
We already know that Reign and The Vampire Diaries are ending this season. No Tomorrow and Frequency are expected to be cancelled and The Originals’ future will likely be decided once the ratings come in for the upcoming fourth season, starting in March.
What do you think? Do you like the Arrow TV show? Are you glad that it’s been renewed for a sixth season or, should it have been cancelled instead? Should season six be the final year?
I’m glad it’s still on. They always cancel the good shows. Arrow needs to keep on
I liked the earlier seasons better, but I’m still a faithful viewer!
I just discovered the show on Netflix. (We don’t watch much brodcast anymore.) Enjoy it a lot! It got a little strange with the alien episode, but otherwise love the show and was glad to see its been renewed.
I think the show is great, I’m glad the show was renewed keep it going for many years to come love it.
I love Arrow and I’m glad it got renewed. The characters fit so well together. Keep up the good work.
the theme keeps ones’ interest. good to have good alway winning. The plots keep you coming back. Keep it on!
YES ARROW IS LIKE BATMAN WITHOUT THE BAT CAPE AND COWL.And its amazing.Deathstroke do be clear minded again is great too.And fight side by side.Nice.Cannot wait to watch the new season six.And to me ,i hope to many more seasons.Huge Thanks to the makers.
Why did you do this to me? I want to watch Season 6 already! The marvel tv shows are really awesome! Please I love The Originals don’t take it off
I love the show and I’m pleased to know there will be Season 6. I watch the reruns every day and Wednesday nights. Can’t get enough!!!
Arrow started it all, and remains a great show.
Flash is in the lead, one of the greatest shows of all time.
Supergirl is right behind flash, a great show.
And Legends of tomorrow is in Last place (out of these four), but has more potential than all of the other shows.
Marvel may be winning as far as the movies go, but DC is in control of television!
Thank you for renewing ARROW, FLASH, D.C. COMICS, SUPER GIRL My grandson & I watch them together.
I say the CW shouldn’t throw away such good talent as Stephen Amell, Arrow is my best DC CW show , i find it interesting & suspenseful for matured people. So Yes to S06 without the flashbacks ,I’m curious how it will look like but i know its still going to be Amazing
I definitely love Arrow the show is very excellent the actor is totally on point and no they should not cancel it. I think it’s the best television show on TV. We want to go as far as CW wants to go go to 10 seasons set a record it’s the great show love it.
I love Arrow. I specifically watched a S4 episode, to see Matt Ryan, as Constantine. Now I am hooked. Already on Season 3 & totally loving it. One of tge best CW shows on. Yes to S6.
