Updated May 19th: Supergirl keeps its Mondays at 8 p.m. slot on the CW. And the CW President confirms a four-way crossover of the DC shows for December.

Four-way-crossover anyone? Supergirl is making the move to The CW and to Vancouver in its second season, according to Deadline Hollywood. Does that mean a Supergirl-The Flash-Arrow-Legends of Tomorrow crossover is possible? The production logistics boggle the mind. Certainly a Supergirl-The Flash crossover is more feasible now even if National City is in another dimension.

So Vancouver will now play Star City, Central City, future and past versions of the DC Cities as well as National City. Downtown will be crowded.

Supergirl stars Melissa Benoist as Kara Zor-El/Kara Danvers and the titular caped character; Mehcad Brooks as James Olsen; Chyler Leigh as Alex Danvers; Jeremy Jordan as Winn Schott, David Harewood as Hank Henshaw and Calista Flockhart as Cat Grant. It’s not clear if the complete cast will make the move to Vancouver for a 22-episode second season as the Warner Bros TV production must reduce costs to produce a show on a CW scale instead of a big network CBS scale.

Supergirl’s ratings slowed after a strong debut last Fall, but it still ranked as the No. 1 new CBS drama, according to Deadline Hollywood, and the No. 4 new network series overall with an average 10 million viewers and a 2.4 rating among the coveted 18-49 demographic.

Uber-Producer Greg Berlanti produces all four DC Comics TV series Arrow, The Flash, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow and Supergirl, as well as new Archie Comics TV series Riverdale, which shot its pilot in Vancouver.
