The CW usually rolls out its new slate of fall shows a little bit later than the other major broadcast networks. New seasons of Arrow, Supernatural and the rest usually start hitting around October. This upcoming season is no different. The CW has released its fall schedule and the next season of your favorite shows will start premiering on Monday, October 9.

Are The CW Superhero Shows’ Cliffhanger Endings Too Farfetched?>>> Though there is typically a week or more of separation when it comes to fall premieres, not only on The CW but the other broadcast networks, this is not the case for Fall 2017. From Supergirl to Jane the Virgin, all of The CW’s shows, new and old, will premiere in the same week. 

As previously reported, there are a few changes in the line-up. Supergirl will be paired with the new military drama, which also has a female lead, Valor. Wednesday will be the night for nighttime soap operas with Riverdale airing alongside the Dynasty reboot. Arrow will be moving to Thursdays after Supernatural, while Jane the Virgin and Crazy Ex-Girlfriend will be on Friday nights. With those changes in mind, here are the premiere dates.
