The CW continues its annual round of early renewals with a nod to midseason staple "The 100", which has been picked up for a fifth season.

The serialized sci-fi drama, which successfully weathered a controversy over the killing off of a lesbian character last season, was one of the first CW series designed for shorter runs and the first to go the distance. It airs 13-season installments in spring.



"The 100" has done solid business, running on par with such other renewed CW series as "Jane the Virgin" and "Riverdale". Like those two, it sees significant amounts of delayed and digital viewing.

"The 100" averages a +70% increase in total viewers, a +73% gain in adults 18-34, and an +86% jump in adults 18-49 in Live+7 day ratings over Live+Same Day.
