Supergirl Moves to The CW for Season 2
The CW will take over as the new home for the superhero drama, which made it’s debut in October on CBS to 13 million total viewers and a 3.1 demo rating, tying NBC’s Blindspot as the 2015-16 TV season’s top-rated drama launch.
And speaking of new homes, TVLine has confirmed that Supergirl will move production to Vancouver, after setting up shop in Los Angeles for its maiden voyage. No word yet, on Calista Flockhart‘s participation in the relocation away from L.A..
Starring Melissa Benoist in the title role, Supergirl averaged 7.7 million viewers and a 1.7 rating, numbers which with Live+7 DVR playback swell to 10 mil/2.5. Its freshman finale last month did 6.1 mil and a 1.3 in Live-Same Day numbers.
One of Supergirl‘s most popular outings featured a crossover from the star of The CW’s The Flash, Grant Gustin, which boosted the CBS series to a 7-week high in the demo.
