Dramedy Jane the Virgin has rated solidly and received positive reviews from critics following its premiere.

The CW president Mark Pedowitz said: "We have had a fantastic start to our season this year, with The Flash launching as our most-watched series premiere ever, and Jane the Virgin recognized as the best new show this season by critics across the country.

"Over the past three seasons, we have made it our mission to grow and to broaden out our audience, and to keep raising the bar with the quality and impact of our new shows, and The Flash and Jane have both exceeded our expectations on all counts.

"I'm thrilled to announce full season orders for both of these terrific new series."

In the UK, The Flash will air on Sky1 and Jane the Virgin will broadcast on E4.
