Both The Hollywood Reporter and TV Week are reporting that The CW has renewed six shows through the 2009-2010 season, including its Thursday duo of Smallville (for a ninth season) and Supernatural (for a fifth season). No word yet on the fate of Reaper, which returns for its second season on March 3rd.

The Hollywood Reporter notes that two of Smallville‘s current “showrunners,” Darren Swimmer and Todd Slavkin, may leave the series if The CW’s pilot for Melrose Place is picked up. Kelly Sounders and Brian Peterson would remain to guide Smallville through its ninth season. The show’s creators, Al Gough and Miles Millar, left after Season Seven.

Do you think Smallville and Supernatural should each return for another season? Sound off in the comments.

    I’m glad that Smallville and Supernatural will be back. They’re probably the two shows I look forward to most each week.
