Telly’s Take
Will The CW cancel or renew The Flash for season six? I think it will get a renewal. The CW has gone all-in on DC programming and while Arrow is the foundation, The Flash, which was the littlest network’s number one show for its first four years on the air, has been its superstar. For now, I’ll keep an eye on the Nielsens and update this page with breaking developments. Subscribe for free alerts on The Flash cancellation or renewal news.
