Though the girl of steel can fly high, The CW wants her to stay put — on the network. The CW has renewed the Supergirl TV show for a third season. Season three will air as part of the 2017-18 season and will likely start airing in the fall.
Supergirl revolves around Superman’s cousin, Kara Zor-El (Melissa Benoist). As a girl, she survived Krypton’s destruction by being sent to Earth where she was raised as a human. She kept her powers a secret and now, as an adult, works as an assistant at a big city media conglomerate. Kara’s existence becomes known to the world and she is enlisted by a super-secret agency to help protect the citizens from evil forces as Supergirl. The rest of the cast includes Mehcad Brooks, Chyler Leigh, Jeremy Jordan, David Harewood, Floriana Lima, and Chris Wood. Recurring actors this season include Calista Flockhart, Ian Gomez, Katie McGrath, Lynda Carter, Brenda Strong, and Tyler Hoechlin.
As expected, season two of Supergirl is way down in the ratings when compared to the first season which aired on CBS, a much bigger network. It’s currently averaging a 0.87 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 2.69 million viewers. Those numbers aren’t good enough for the Tiffany Network but they are good enough to make Supergirl the second-highest rated show on The CW. A third season renewal is no surprise.
The next original episode of season two airs on January 23rd.
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), Jane the Virgin (season four), 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 Supergirl TV show? Are you glad that it’s been renewed for a third season or, should it have been cancelled instead?
It will be ended soon. The worst erotic show i have ever seen.
I assume y6ou don’t watch Arrow?
Yes, I love watching Supergirl. Keep it going. I love all the characters as well.
i’m liking supergirl more each week and i’m really looking forward to next sesaon and where the ariters take the story line. i do hope they bring back superman for a few shows as well. or better yet..give the man of steel his own show… its time !!
The Supergirl series are very inspiring by showing that a female can also be powerful and helpful for others. I watched Session 1 and 2 and l am looking forward to Session 3.
I had not watched Supergirl till recent. Reason: I thought it was going to be boring due to the assumption that someone had just gotten the Superman character and made it a female position. No story line just similar story with a female version of Superman. However, I watched all Season 1 and am about to go on to Season 2. I loved the show. It is a continuation and compliment to Superman. I especially loved the incorporation of the Flash and Meta humans. The story line is good – it is not a repetition of Superman. It has similar… Read more »
I m from Indonesia.. All my friend love supergirl but how we can give this rating if we didn’t watch at the same times?
I feel you. Been watching this show on HOOQ, and I freaking love season 2. Too bad they don’t do online rating system.
Supergirl is probably the worst written TV show I have ever seen. The writers stoop to extremely idiotic plots and don’t come close to the use of any imagination that any better experienced writers would easily have. Aliens all the time? Can’t they come up with slightly smarter plots. This was never the concept of Supergirl or Superman by its creators. Didn’t the writers bother to read any of the original comics? Obviously not.
I’ve watched since the beginning and it’s gone downhill. I think it should have ended after season 1 and I’m surprised it’s survived.
So glad to hear it was renewed. It’s my fav weekly show.
Although I miss Cat Grant terribly, I still enjoy Supergirl and am happy to hear I can look forward to at least another season.
I am really glad to hear that this show has been picked up for a third season. I have watched it from the beginning as well. I definitely plan to watch.
