Welcome to the CW Renew/Cancel Watch, and in light of the CW expanding to Sundays next season, I've moved some shows' predictions.

Dynasty: I have to say, this show is going to be the death of my prediction record. In light of the CW's expansion to Sundays, I decided to move the show to "likely renewed". According to the previous ad rate chart, it's the biggest loser of ad rates. Low ratings prompted a move to Friday in-season, but this news is causing me to take pause. I'll put it there for now, but don't expect it to stay there when there are nine pilots and Life Sentence fighting for their shot.
Black Lightning: After a solid performance without a Flash lead in, I've made the overdue upgrade from "likely renewed" to "certain to be renewed". It has overachieved its ad rate.
Again, ad rates are just a secondary thing for the co-owned network. But it could be a major factor in the prediction record as it goes down to the wire for the CBS shows.
