The CW38 will hold a pair of events next week tied in to the premieres of two of its TV shows.
Batwoman Day will take place Sunday, Oct. 6, from 2 to 5 p.m. at Gracie NEPA, 943 Underwood Road, Olyphant. The event will include free pizza and “bat” wings and free Batwoman masks. There also will be giveaways, self-defense instruction with Gracie NEPA’s Dangerous Damsels class, a Bullyshield class for the kids, a prize wheel with Batwoman swag and a Batwoman costume contest, with the winner taking home a $100 Visa Gift Card. Admission is free.
Then, on Tuesday, Oct. 8, from 6 to 8 p.m., Nancy Drew Night will take place at Electric City Escape, 507 Linden St., Scranton. That event also will include a prize wheel, this time with Nancy Drew swag. Additionally, Electric City Escape will offer 10% off admission from now through the end of October using the promo code NANCYDREW.
Viewers can watch the series premiere of “Batwoman” on Sunday at 8 p.m. and the premiere of “Nancy Drew” on Wednesday, Oct. 9, at 9 p.m., both on The CW38.
“Batwoman” stars Ruby Rose in the title role, and the story picks up three years after Batman mysteriously disappears and Gotham is in trouble. The show also stars Dougray Scott, Rachel Skarsten, Meagan Tandy, Nicole Kang, Camrus Johnson and Elizabeth Anweis.
“Nancy Drew” carries on the mystery spirit of the classic series of novels, this time sending the teenage detective into the spotlight as she is suspected of murder herself. Kennedy McMann plays Nancy Drew alongside Scott Wolf, Alex Saxon, Leah Lewis, Maddison Jaizani, Tunji Kasim, Riley Smith and Alvina August.
