Unlike the four major networks, The CW only has three new shows prepared for the 2015-2016 TV season, so there aren’t that many trailers to sit through to prepare. Only one of them will actually air during the fall and it’s not the one with superheroes.
The CW unveiled its schedule this morning, with Crazy Ex-Girlfriend being the only one to air in the fall. The show, which was originally developed at Showtime, stars Rachel Bloom as the titular crazy ex-girlfriend. It will air on Mondays at 8 p.m. as the lead-in to Jane The Virgin.
Up next is DC’s Legends of Tomorrow from Greg Berlanti and the same producers behind The Flash and Arrow. The new series features many of the supporting characters from those shows, including Brandon Routh’s Atom. Caity Lotz has been confirmed to be playing White Canary. This was held back for midseason so The CW doesn’t have three DC shows on at the same time.
Lastly, there’s Containment, which comes from The Vampire Diaries creator Julie Plec and centers on an illness outbreak in Atlanta. Again, this one has been held for midseason.
