"Kung Fu" & "Stargirl" Renewed at The CW

The CW is continuing to kick-ass with renewals. The youth-skewing broadcaster has picked up freshman series "Kung Fu" for a second season and handed a third season of "DC’s Stargirl" ahead of its sophomore debut.

This comes as the network continues to look for stability in its scripted lineup – bringing the number of renewals for the 2021-22 season to 15 with only "The Republic of Sarah", which launches in June, still pending.

The renewal of "Kung Fu" is not a surprise.

The drama kicked off strong with more than 3.5M viewers watching the premiere episode and it had the highest total viewership number for a Wednesday debut in 7 years since "The 100" debuted in 2014.

I'm stunned! This show is just HORRIBLE.

How can they renew after just 1 or a few episodes?? I watched the first 9 episodes but it got so bad I had to FORCE myself to watch the last few. Even the ratings on IMDB are awful so I'm not the only one.
