The crazy story of Jane Villanueva and her family will continue. The CW has renewed Jane the Virgin for a fourth season. Season four will air as part of the 2017-18 season, likely kicking off this fall.
On Jane the Virgin, a driven 23-year-old woman named Jane (Gina Rodriguez) ends up becoming pregnant thanks to being artificially inseminated by mistake. Once she has the baby, things seem to get even more complicated. She’s caught between the attraction for her detective boyfriend, Michael (Brett Dier), and her boss, Rafael (Justin Baldoni), who’s also her baby’s daddy. Now that she’s married one of them, is the drama over? The rest of the cast includes Andrea Navedo, Yael Grobglas, Ivonne Coll, Jaime Camil, and Anthony Mendez (voice over).
Thanks in part to having Supergirl as a lead-in, season three of Jane the Virgin is up by nearly 10% in the ratings. It’s currently averaging a 0.40 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 1.05 million viewers. It’s the sixth highest-rated series on The CW right now (below the superhero series and Supernatural).
Today, CW President Mark Pedowitz said, “When you have great critical work and a critically acclaimed and award-nominated show like this, it deserves to be picked up… It has nothing to do with numbers. It has everything to do with [how] Crazy Ex, Jane the Virgin and the DC franchises have helped alter the perception of what The CW has become.”
The CW also renewed six other TV shows today — Arrow (season six), Crazy Ex-Girlfriend (season three), DC’s Legends of Tomorrow (season three), The Flash (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.
The next original episode of season three airs on January 23rd.
What do you think? Do you like the Jane the Virgin TV show? Are you glad that it’s been renewed for a fourth season or, should it have been cancelled instead?
I love it, so glad there’s a season 4.
I love Jane The Virgin! Thank you for renewing it! It is very well written with lots of drama and plenty of comedy as well! I love all the characters. One of my favorites is Rogelio DeLa Vega. He’s super funny! I was, however, sad to see the Michael character gone. He added substance and really grounded Jane. All of the actor seem to adjust fairly well together, despite their many differences. I love this diverse and multi faceted show!
Jane the Virgin is great show. There is great chemistry between her and Raphael. To keep viewers interest, need to keep this going
Yay! So excited for a fourth season! Love this show!

I love the show! Can’t wait for it to return! Will be interesting to see if Adam or Rafael ends up her next hubby ? Also, the whole baby situation is gonna be an interesting story.
I love Jane…. i am very happy they are doing another season. I was sad that Michael passed and am confused by Jane’s dating ideas. I hope she gets herself back to how she was before.
I used to like this show, until 3 weeks back when Jane went from becoming a considerate woman who respects herself and her family, into a huge *****. She meets this hot guy who works with her father, shows attraction but it turns out, she just wants to have pointless sex with him. She used to be all about waiting for marriage. She tells this gorgeous man she just wants him for sex, like, she’s not Jane anymore. I can’t respect her or this show. She thinks it’s sweet to share with Mateo that he was a miracle, that under… Read more »
You want it canceled just because you didn’t like Jane anymore . Well why don’t you just stop watching it and let people that liked it keep watching JS
I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE Jane The Virgin, The Originals, The Vampire Diaries, and Reign. I am very unhappy that Reign is ending so soon and that TVD already ended without letting at least Caroline join the Original, but at least it had a good run. Reign ending really sucks though. I haven’t missed an episode of Crazy ex girlfriend and I have watched several episodes of Supergirl and i have to say that Reign and Jane are FAR better shows. Not saying that Supergirl isn’t good.. it is, it’s just not in my top 5) if anything is going… Read more »
Please keep Michael. The wound was not a fatal heart shot anyway! In this day and age someone deserves a happy, soulmate life. There certainly is enough going on all around them to make a great show and continue addressing the issues they’re so good at and now they can add marriage to it.
