I can't believe that I'm WAY MORE excited for DC TV than I could possibly be with DC films, regardless how much I'm excited to watch Aquaman tomorrow. This is probably my favorite crossoever ever.

DC TV announces Crisis on Infinite Earths for 2019.

Gotta check this out. Not a big DC fan, but my coworker's bro worked there, so I would read all his major story arcs and graphic novels. What I wouldn't give for a Kingdom Come adaptation sometime.
I actually prefer a TV show doing this over the films to be honest. It would take far to long for films to get to this point. A TV shows, and multiple TV shows at that, can better build up to this. I just hope they give them a significant budget. I'd fully take them shorting all the seasons a few episodes just to pump more money into this and it should be more then three nights. Make it 5 days or if it's three make them extra long episodes. I think that's good given the length of the actual COIE story.
Hah, these fuckers. They get a slow clap and an approving nod from me.
From the moment I saw the ending of the Flash pilot, I knew they were crazy enough to go there.

CG? They all going to charge at each other and ends with a bright light, that's it.
I'm still trying to process that they are doing it. Like it's so crazy, but we might get one earth with all the heroes instead of supergirl being on earth-39 or whatever.
It really should at this point. I think Welling signaled he wouldn't be against playing Clark again at this point. For something this big I think they likely could get him to play ball and finally put the suit on fully. Same with Michael Rosenbaum as Lex I think. Both know how how big of a deal this story would be.

It all started with Oliver Queen getting sunk on the Queen's Gambit :P
I bet the CGI guys are already planning in advance. They prepare for the really intensive CGI like Grodd and King Shark in advance and work on them when they have any spare time.

I don't think he has to suit up if he doesn't want to. Just a cameo of Clark in the red shirt blue jeans will already be hype enough.
I meant like been teased since then but yeah like Sara said this all started with them two technically lol
From a show afraid to even lean into superhero stuff calling their main character "The Hood" to doing Crisis on Infinite Earths. That's quite a journey.
I think the closest you get to seeing anything Smallville related was them using the theme on Flash and reusing the farm.
Man. Would've been nice to have this not spoiled for me when I get to watch the episode in three hours.
Literally no reason to not get at least a small Routh Superman cameo now.
If there was any single story to pull that off in, this is it.

They have.
They have batwoman (Kate Kane) so it's Gotham, just minus Batman.
Hell, throw in Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman and Dean Cain and Teri Hatcher as Lois and Clark, too. They've all been in Supergirl already.
A bit out of topic but how is elseworld crossover? I heard the early reaction was a bit unconvincing and tended to be bad. But how's the real result? Is it any good? Please no important plot spoiler but im a bit late behind
Fuck all that "No Black Lightning" shit. I'm usually on board with that feeling, but this is CoIE. All hands on deck.
Shit, bring in the DCU Titans and Doom Patrol if possible. Fuck my shit up, Berlanti.

He means the TV show "Gotham" lol
Part 3 was a bit meh, but the first two are really good and quite funny. The smaller group of people allows the interaction between Kara,Oliver, and Barry to really shine.
Part 3 was saved because of the ending and the resulting announcement of crisis.
So is there anywhere I can find a meta-story episode guide to all the DCTV shows so I don't have to sit through the filler episode?
Oh whoops, sorry.
But that idea wouldn't be the worst one. I'm really curious on how they are going to pull it all together
Yeah, they should definitely throw the DCU characters in at least for brief cameos. Swamp Thing and Stargirl should be up and running by then, in addition to Titans and Doom Patrol.
Next Dec is my guess.
That's a given.

Anyone who can cameo, should cameo. Just have them looking up to the red skies. Every DC film or TV show ever.
I wonder if WB would let them have a "one night only" pass to use Batman for this.
Arrow, Flash, Supergirl, Legends, Black Lightning, Batwoman, Titans, Doom Patrol, Swamp Thing, Stargirl, and references and cameos to past DC TV projects like Smallville and Gotham
Then end with it all being folded into a new Earth. Shit. Be snarky as you want about budgets or cheese or whatever, but that shit would be FLAMES.
They got a year to figure this out re: contracts, scheduling, etc. Imagine if they can somehow work in all this:
Arrow, Flash, Supergirl, Legends, Black Lightning, Batwoman, Titans, Doom Patrol, Swamp Thing, Stargirl, and references and cameos to past DC TV projects like Smallville and Gotham
Then end with it all being folded into a new Earth. Shit. Be snarky as you want about budgets or cheese or whatever, but that shit would be FLAMES.
