Re: The CW Fall 2016-17 Schedule Announced
Some news for watchers of the CW in Chicago. It looks like WGN will no longer be the CW affiliate. WPWR will be the new station for the CW in Chicago. If this means less preemptions for sports this will be a good thing, but I think WPWR carries some sports so I'm not sure.

In a rare change of network affiliations in Chicago, the CW Network will move this fall from Tribune Media WGN-Channel 9 to Fox-owned WPWR-Channel 50, sources said Sunday. The switch, expected to be announced Monday, will return “Chicago’s Very Own” to an independent station with a strictly local programming lineup, starting in September. Tribune Media still owns CW affiliates in 12 other markets, including New York and Los Angeles. Formed in 2006 as a joint venture between Warner Bros. Entertainment and CBS, the network includes such primetime shows as “The Flash” and “Jane The Virgin.” In addition to two hours in primetime each weeknight, CW also programs five hours of children’s programming on Saturday mornings. Sources said the move to WPWR, low-rated sister station of WFLD-Channel 32, is expected to mean a shift of less than $4 million in revenue.

You'd think The CW would be smart enough not to keep Supergirl up against Gotham on Monday nights...isn't it in their best interest not to program a Warners series up against another Warners series...unless the hope is FOX will cancel Gotham and they can pick it up too.

In for Supergirl, Arrow, Flash, Legends Of Tomorrow and iZombie.
And yeah - what the hell is WGN going to show now ? The only other thing I watch on there is the morning news.

Salem is on WGN America, which is a completely different network.
The WGN he's talking about in Chicago is a local station, which formerly was the CW affiliate in that area.

No? Because he's Ray/Atom on Legends of Tomorrow.
I'm rewatching Smallville and I'd love to see Welling return in red & blue. The timing/age kinda works too between Kara & Clark and the time Smallville has been off the air and how long Clark would have been Superman.
It'd also be interesting to see what the Berlanti team could do with a character we all already know.
Also would be appropriate given Smallville was CW's flagship show for years.

However, if they ever go with the Crisis storyline like The Flash seems to be hinting at, I could see Welling's version being involved.
I would also like to see Constantine show up again on one of the shows, but that's not likely.

I really don't want to see Welling appear in the Arrowverse. There is no chance he appears as Clark Kent or Superman, that is for sure. Heck, I would rather see Brandon Routh's Superman appear.

The CW will sign new deal with Netflix that will make the entire season available around 2 weeks after season ends in May.
However, they have severed their partnership with Hulu. No more episodes will be posted. If you only stream their shows or missed an episode, you will have to use the CW website, app or on demand through your provider, which has commercials.

Just a reminder, that if you watch the CW out of Chicago, it will no longer be on WGN. It will be on WPWR effective now (Sep. 1st). You may need to update your DVR if you have your CW series set to only record on WGN.
