The CW has added four new shows to their 2014-2015 primetime lineup including the much-anticipated Arrow spin-off, The Flash. Pilots from Veronica Mars‘ Rob Thomas, 90210‘s Jennie Snyder Urman, and Teen Wolf‘s Eoghan O’Donnell were also among the pilots given series orders and will debut during the upcoming fall season.

Here’s the scoop on each of the new series:

The Flash – “Based upon characters published by DC Comics, through a freak accident, scientist Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) is given the power of super speed that transforms him into the Fastest Man Alive.”

iZombie – “A med student-turned-zombie takes a job in the coroner’s office to gain access to the brains she must reluctantly eat to maintain her humanity, but with each brain she consumes, she inherits the corpse’s memories. With the help of her medical examiner boss and a police detective, she solves homicide cases in order to quiet the disturbing voices in her head.”


Jane the Virgin – “A series of surprising and unforeseen events causes a hard-working, religious young Latina woman to be accidentally artificially inseminated. Adapted from the successful Venezuelan telenovela.”

The Messengers – “When a mysterious object crashes down to earth, a group of seemingly unconnected strangers die from the energy pulse, but then awaken to learn that they have been deemed responsible for preventing the impending Apocalypse.”
