‘Life Sentence’ Sent To Friday By the CW, ‘The Originals’ Replaces It Wednesday

After Life Sentence hit another Live+same day low this week, the CW has decided to move the dramedy to Fridays, a move the network also recently applied to Life Sentence‘s predecessor in the post-Riverdale Wednesday 9 PM slot, Dynasty.

The Originals, originally slated to return on April 20 and air its final season on Fridays, will now open its final chapter on April 18 and will take over the Wednesday 9 PM berth fellowing Riverdale‘s musical episode.

The Lucy Hale-starring dramedy, which has done ok in delayed viewing and on-demand but has struggled mightily in linear ratings, recently hitting a 0.1 in 18-49 (Live+same day), will air one more episode on Wednesday on April 4 before shifting to the Friday 9 PM slot on April 27, a week after Jane the Virgin wraps its season on April 20.

On Fridays, Life Sentence will be paired with Dynasty.
