Supergirl has been given the greenlight for a full season order! That means rather than the 13 episodes we knew we were going to get, we are now going to get 20! CBS orders 7 more episodes and calls 20 episodes a full season order. While many might have been hoping for 22 episodes, trust us, this is still a mega win!
CBS announced today an order for seven more episodes of SUPERGIRL, providing a full season of 20 episodes for the freshman drama that launched on Oct. 26. CBS has now given additional episode orders to all four of its new fall series – SUPERGIRL, LIFE IN PIECES, LIMITLESS and CODE BLACK.
