The CW network has officially ordered two new series, The 100 and The Tomorrow People, for its upcoming season. Both shows are set to expand the network’s lineup with fresh science fiction narratives.
The 100 centers on a group of juvenile delinquents sent back to Earth from a space habitat to determine if the planet is habitable after a nuclear apocalypse. The series promises to explore survival, society rebuilding, and moral dilemmas in a post-apocalyptic setting.
The Tomorrow People follows young individuals who represent the next stage in human evolution, possessing special powers. As they navigate their abilities, they face challenges from those who fear their potential.
These additions reflect The CW’s strategy to invest in genre programming that appeals to a younger demographic. The network aims to offer stories that combine action, drama, and speculative elements.
By introducing these series, The CW continues to build a diverse slate that includes both established hits and innovative new content.
