“Reign” and “The Originals” also among network’s midseason debuts

The CW set the premiere dates for its midseason series on Wednesday, including for its Archie comics adaptation, “Riverdale.”

The freshman drama will bow on Thursday, Jan. 26 at 9 p.m. It will be preceded by “Supernatural,” which makes the move to Thursdays on the same night, at 8 p.m.

“Legends of Tomorrow” — currently airing on Thursdays — will move to Tuesdays at 9 p.m. starting Jan. 24, a week after “No Tomorrow” wraps its first season run and vacates the same time period.

The network also set premieres for returning series “The 100,” “Reign,” “iZombie” and “The Originals,” as well as season finales for some of its other currently airing shows.

Beginning Feb. 1, “The 100” will air on Wednesday nights at 9 p.m., following “Arrow.” “Frequency,” which currently occupies that time slot, will wrap its first season on Jan. 25.

Neither “Frequency” nor “No Tomorrow” are getting additional episodes from The CW, a blow to the renewal chances of the two first-season dramas.

The second season finale of “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend” — another one of the network’s series that’s struggling in the ratings — will air Friday, Feb. 3 at 9 p.m. “Reign” will return for Season 4 the following Friday, Feb. 10 at 9 p.m.

“The Vampire Diaries” will conclude after eight seasons on Friday, March 10, with spinoff “The Originals” to premiere in its place the following week.

On March 4, “iZombie” will premiere with two back-to-back episodes beginning at 8 p.m., before moving to its regular 9 p.m. time slot the following week.
