A CW rep would only confirm that the series has been renewed for Season 4, but Bloom and co-creator Aline Brosh McKenna have said all along they had a four-season plan for the series. Crazy Ex premiered in the fall of 2015, with Bloom winning a Golden Globe for her lead performance as lovesick lawyer Rebecca Bunch. Season 3 ended with Rebecca facing a lengthy prison sentence after pleading guilty to attempted murder of her own unstable ex Trent.
And Crazy Ex might have company when it sings its CW swan song: Jane the Virgin, just renewed for Season 5, is believed to be ending next year as well, with star Gina Rodriguez calling Season 5 “our final season” at a panel last month.
