Disappointing. I actually wouldn't mind them starting to sunset a couple of the shows and work toward a live-action Justice League kind of thing with a revolving cast.
Legends can stay forever, though.

1.) Supergirl's actress is decent, but the show sucks.
2.) Superman's not a dudebro. Cut that out.
Yeah, the writing on Supergirl is just achingly bad. I wish it wasn't, because Benoist deserves better, but the show is just...woof.
While we're at it, there's room for a Krypton show and a fucking Metropolis show, but none for Superdad? Booooo. :/
I'm still hoping they'll go with a live action JL Unlimited show once they start cancelling Arrow/Flash/SG.
Agreed on the Legends though, don't take them away.
The FIgureheads/Mascots for these Franchises, always big-screen... never little screen... Lois and Clark was a bit of an outlier.
Adventures of Superman...Superboy...Lois and Clark...even, ugh, Smallville. Superman is no stranger to the small screen at all, friend.
Now Batman? Yeah, Adam West's show was an outlier.
Smallville doesn't really count, because the show literally is built on the premise... everything BEFORE he becomes Superman... so once he became him, then the show had to end.
They don't want a long-running series with Supes because he deserves better for being a long lasting enduring icon
Seasons 6-10 were pretty much a Superman tv series in all but name.
I knew the "doesn't really count" thing would be thrown in, but that shit ran for a decade.
And anyway, "better" wouldn't be a movie because films aren't the best format for serial characters like superheroes.
If Cavill isn't being used for a film and you've got no Superman replacement...a show would be a good idea. Just...not on CW, and if so by a crew more like Black Lightning's than the other series.
Problem with tv is that Batman could be done too well, personally better than a movie could.
Gotham has proven if they wanted they could do a Batman TV show much better than any of the films. I don't know about the writing, but the set and costume design of that series is pitch-perfect.

Yup,
and if Gotham writing isn't your thing just picture something original like Prometheus
The only thing tv has trouble with is suits at times and a good Batmobile sequence is probably not an option but personally I wouldn't care.
Noooooo. It'll look fine once they finish post-production stuffs.

So my current theory on the crossover: Ollie-Flash and Barry-Arrow are our Oliver and Barry, not AU versions. I'm predicting that the crossover involves the fabric of reality being in peril, and one of the results is the world changing around the heroes. At some point in the adventure, Oliver and Barry will suddenly find themselves in each other's suits with each other's skills.
Can't believe Titans actually made Hawk and Dove cool....
honestly I kinda want their own series over the rest of this.

Shane West is playing Bane in Gotham? That first pic is not great... Really need to see how it plays out.
He looks like an early nineties action figure that would have the "flint-sparks behind transparent plastic" action feature.
His first and current suit were actually pretty good. The one with the football shoulder pads was awful
I can't stop seeing Jon Hamm in a goofy suit whenever he shows up.His first and current suit were actually pretty good. The one with the football shoulder pads was awful
