Superman & Lois Still Debuts on CW in October
While The Librarians: The Next Chapter has been pulled from CW's fall schedule, the fourth and final season of Superman & Lois will continue to debut on the network in October. The season premiere is set for Thursday, October 17th with a 2-hour premiere airing between 8 p.m. and 10 p.m. ET. The series will air at 8 p.m. on Thursdays beginning the following week. The final season of the series is set to have ten episodes.
"I have watched nine of the 10 episodes and [they are] f-king awesome," The CW 's President of Entertainment Brad Schwartz revealed in a recent interview . "It is weekly event television. Greg Berlanti and the producers have constructed 10 bangers. They really go for it. I've cried twice watching [the first nine episodes], and I haven't even gotten to the finale yet. It's Emmy-worthy. And, by the way, you can watch this final season without having watched the previous [seasons] and still be emotionally invested in what is happening. It's a wonderful, 10-episode, contained arc."
