Canceled!? Big Budget TV Shows On The Chopping Block

8. The Flash

Network: The CW
Status: Season 9 Could Go Either Way

Back in 2013, the seed for a new series about “The Flash” was planted, watered, and grew to fruition, when Barry Allen entered the Arrow-verse. The Flash has now lasted 7 seasons totaling 151 episodes, and, with a budget of roughly $60 million each year, the average episode of “The Flash” has cost approximately $2.6 million to make.

Although every couple of years the show sees a slight drop in viewership, the team at The CW must have done something right when developing the plotlines for the “fastest man alive” as the Flash has managed to keep running for 8 seasons with the 9th being just one good storyline away.
