The CW (finally!) released its midseason schedule Sunday morning. There won’t be too many changes to the network’s current lineup, but a fan favorite show will be on the move to make room for one of the two new drama premieres.

iZombie will be taking over Supernatural’s post-Flash time slot beginning Tuesday, March 17. Supernatural will then move to Wednesday nights following the other superheroes on the block, Arrow on March 18. But there’s no need for fans of sophomore drama The 100 to worry – the show will have already ended its second season run on March 11.

The Messengers will make its debut on Friday, April 10 following the spring premiere of Whose Line is it Anyway and the series premiere of Cedric’s Barber Battle.
