Jane the Virgin‘s swan song will get underway on Wednesday, March 27, The CW announced Thursday.
The series’ fifth and final season will premiere at 9/8c that evening. (Take heart, Jane aficionados: A spinoff, described as a telenovela-inspired anthology series that would feature a different book “written by” Jane every season — and with Gina Rodriguez as narrator (!) — is in development at the network.)
In other bittersweet-return news, iZombie will return for its fifth and final season on Thursday, May 2 at 8/7c. As TVLine reported in December, one of the season’s early episodes will find Liv feeling the effects of a codependent dancer’s brain, “and she ropes Ravi into going undercover to compete for a chance to escape the walled city of Seattle… in a nationally televised dance show,” showrunner Rob Thomas tells us. “They are investigating the murder of the couple expected to win [the competition] before their untimely demise.”
Jane and iZombie‘s premieres were part of the network’s overall spring schedule announcement; for details, go here.
