Nothing's cracking 1.0. This can't be good. I mean, I know they have additional revenue streams like Netflix that help, but I think this whole thing of relying too much on DC superhero stuff is taking its toll. Not as bad as Valor is stinking things up, lol.
Black Lightning is going to have its work cut out for it in order for the network to justify renewing FIVE DC shows. I figure the four that are on are safe because they're either successes (Flash), would need a "final season" announcement (Arrow), or are in Season 3 (Supergirl, Legends).
One reason I like that Project 13 idea is it isn't a superhero thing and doesn't even require itself to be tied to the DC Universe; it's kind of like iZombie in that way.
As far as renewal priorities I expect everything currently airing except Valor to be safe. Dynasty has a rich Netflix deal overseas, and it's CBS, which helps. Jane is critically acclaimed and isn't doing too badly considering. Crazy Ex has a four-season arc planned, and I doubt they'd end it just now, though a shorter Season 4 wouldn't shock me.
