Superman & Lois Season 4 Gets New Release Date for The CW Premiere

Superman & Lois, the CW series on the quintessential superhero and his iconic romantic partner, has got a new release date for its fourth and final season. Now, it is coming earlier than what initial reports suggested. This should come as a pleasant surprise for the fans who have been eagerly waiting for it since the previous season finished airing in June 2023.

Superman & Lois Season 4’s new release date and time revealed

Superman & Lois Season 4 will now debut with a two-episode premiere on Monday, October 7, 2024, at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT. In the following weeks, episodes of the show will air weekly, with the docuseries The Wranglers, premiering on August 14, taking up the 9 p.m. slot.

Superman & Lois Season 4 was originally supposed to premiere on Thursday, October 17. But now, Superman & Lois and The Wranglers will swap timeslots with the game shows Scrabble and Trivial Pursuit. Scrabble will air weekly on Thursdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT, followed by Trivial Pursuit at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

This move on The CW’s part seems to have come due to ABC developing a Monday 8 p.m. – 10 p.m. game show block, comprising Celebrity Wheel Of Fortune and Press Your Luck.

Since 2023, The CW has seemingly made a conscious shift toward developing more non-scripted projects, though the network asserted its commitment to its scripted shows. In a May 2024 interview with TVLine, Brad Schwartz, the President of Entertainment at The CW, had only positive things to say about the final chapter of Superman & Lois.

Schwartz said that he had watched nine out of 10 episodes and they were “awesome.” He elaborated, “It is weekly event television. Greg Berlanti and the producers have constructed 10 bangers. They really go for it. I’ve cried twice watching [the first nine episodes], and I haven’t even gotten to the finale yet. It’s Emmy-worthy.”

The CW executive continued, “And, by the way, you can watch this final season without having watched the previous [seasons] and still be emotionally invested in what is happening. It’s a wonderful, 10-episode, contained arc.”

Schwartz also revealed that he had read the script of the finale and claimed that “people are going to be blown away” after watching it.
