Here's Why There's No New Episodes of The Flash and Legends of Tomorrow This Week

If you're looking forward to watching new episodes of The Flash and Legends of Tomorrow tonight, you might have to wait a bit longer.

The CW announced that both shows will have a one-week hiatus so there won't be any new episodes on Tuesday, March 3rd. Although they didn't specifically state the reason for the delay, it is likely because of the "Super Tuesday" primetime coverage. This is an election day where some states have the votes counted for primary elections and will be part of determining who will run against Donald Trump for the U.S. Presidency.

So as not to compete with an important event, new episodes of the Arrowverse shows will air on March 10th. However, if you still want to watch the show tonight, you could but it will only be reruns of "Love is a Battlefield" episode from The Flash and Legends' "Meet the Legends."

Set to air one week later, there's pretty exciting episodes coming up from both series. The Flash's "Death of the Speed Force" will finally feature the return of Wally West. Along with new tricks, the Kid Flash also has some bad news to share. As for Legends, the next episode, titled "Mr. Parker's Cul-De-Sac", will be setting up Ray Palmer and Nora Darhk's exits. That being said, there's so much to look forward to in this episode.

The Flash airs on Tuesday nights at 8 p.m. ET/PT followed by DC's Legends of Tomorrow at 9 p.m. ET/PT on The CW.
