The CW has announced its fall 2022 premiere dates for ten shows, including fan-favorites like Stargirl, Walker, and newcomers like The Winchesters. 2022 has been, by far, the most interesting year for The CW since it launched in 2006 when The WB and UPN did its merger. In previous years, The CW has been infamous for being the network to renew almost all of their shows while doing very few cancelations. Typically, around late January/early February of every year, The CW would hand out early renewals, allowing the showrunners and writers to plan their next seasons.
However, 2022 was a different story as it became a shake-up to the network's status quo. In a surprise move, it was revealed in January 2022 that WarnerMedia and Paramount, the co-owners of The CW, are looking to sell the network. This started many domino effects, delaying The CW's renewal and cancellation process. In March, The CW began canceling shows like Legends of Tomorrow and Batwoman, which was a huge shock for the Arrowverse franchise, given its massive popularity. While The CW has renewed multiple shows for the 2022-2023 TV season, it's not as many as in previous years.
