The CW has given new season renewals to seven of its series, the network announced Sunday.

“Arrow,” “The Flash,” “Supergirl” and “Legends of Tomorrow,” the four DC comic-book universe shows, will all return for new episodes in the 2017-18 season, for Season 6, Season 4, Season 3 and Season 3, respectively.

The network’s two Golden Globe winners are also coming back: “Jane the Virgin” for Season 4 and “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend” for Season 3.

CW’s longest-running show, “Supernatural,” will also return, for Season 13.

“Over the past several seasons, The CW has built a schedule of proven performers, from our lineup of DC superheroes, to critically acclaimed comedies, to sci-fi dramas,” said network president Mark Pedowitz in a statement. “Early pickups of these seven series now allow our producers to plan ahead for next season, and gives us a solid base to build on for next season, with original scripted series to roll out all year long.”

The renewals noticeably do not include the network’s freshman dramas “Frequency” and “No Tomorrow,” both of which have been struggling in the ratings.

Also not on the list are the new and returning shows scheduled to premiere in mid-season, including returning shows “iZombie,” “The 100” and “The Originals,” and new Archie adaptation “Riverdale.”

“The Vampire Diaries” and “Reign” were previously announced to be ending after their current seasons this year.
