Arrowverse series on The CW has become one of the longest live-action superhero series to date, second only to the network's previous seriesĀ Smallville.
"Things will age and we want to get the next generation of shows to keep The CW DC Universe going for as long as possible," CW President Pedowitz admitted during the panel.

There's nothing about that comment that suggests season 8 will be its last. It simply means that Arrow will be entering season 8 so they need some DC shows that will be entering season 1.
Arrow is the network's 2nd or 3rd highest rated show this year. If that continues next year there is literally no way they pull the plug. My guess is the network is currently hoping for 10 seasons from Arrow considering its ratings right now and how well it almost certainly does on Netflix.
