The CW has renewed The Vampire Diaries spin-off The Originals for a fourth season. During its third season, The Originals and its sister-series were moved to Friday nights, which fans feared might telegraph that the shows would be cancelled. In January, during the TCA Winter press tour, CW President, Mark Pedowitz said, “The move is not to exile [the shows]. It’s a move to strengthen Friday night.”
The cast of The Originals includes: Joseph Morgan, Daniel Gillies, Phoebe Tonkin, Charles Michael Davis, Danielle Campbell, and Leah Pipes. Claire Holt, who was in the main cast during the first season, has appeared as a special guest star in seasons two and three.
The renewal was one of 11 early pickups announced by The CW, today. The network renewed its entire slate. The full list of CW TV series renewed today are: Arrow, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, The Flash, iZombie, Jane The Virgin, The Originals, Reign, Supernatural, The Vampire Diaries, and The 100.

The originals is a masterpiece of a show with excellent writing story telling with exceptional actors. I personally love the show and would love to see a 5th season and more of Kol played by Nathaniel Buzolic
please bring it back i have been waiting and waiting its my fav show next to the vampire diarys i miss it
It is one of the best young adult shows out there I think Joseph Morgan is the best young adult actor on television. And the supporting cast is very good as well that show should be going nowhere I can’t believe they would take it off like I said Joseph Morgan especially stunning but just as much Almost Danielle Gillies!!! other than supernatural it’s by far the best show primetime on the CW
