The CW has officially picked up two of its fall freshman shows – BATWOMAN and NANCY DREW – for full seasons. Each show will have 22 episodes for their first seasons.
The network says that “Both BATWOMAN and NANCY DREW have seen significant increases in overall audience once viewership from DVR and streaming from The CW digital platforms is factored in. BATWOMAN has seen its linear ratings grow 73% among adults 18-34 and 80% in adults 18-49 with L+7 viewership, with NANCY DREW posting 94% gains in adults 18-34 and 114% in adults 18-49 in L+7 gains.”
