cwtv.com seems to be testing a new player which embeds ads into the player and will not let you skip past them. It appears the newest episodes of Riverdale and The Flash are the only shows using the new player at the time. You can tell by the &extended segment of text at the end of the link.

http://www.cwtv.com/shows/riverdale/chapter-twenty-five-the-wicked-and-the-divine/?play=130737d1-b003-42c1-9ac7-a31ecb2cd438&extended
http://www.cwtv.com/shows/the-flash/honey-i-shrunk-team-flash/?play=10cd69da-0e4b-4767-a88b-8abad1464c5d&extended

Here is the new episode of The Flash using the new player: https://gyazo.com/b0f9b841b69e069f3185c0f8a42459b9
And here is the newest episode of Dynasty, which does not use the new player (and adblock works on):

Simply attempt to watch the above links. At the time of writing they are the only two to use the new player. Ctrl + F5 may be required if you have already watched these specific episodes prior to today.

We are falling behind in the arm race. We don't have a good system to remove ads that are baked into video stream.
