So I'm starting to get caught up on all of the DC shows, and they are all coming to a crossover. So now's the time to decide what I actually want to watch.
I watched all of it last season, fucking all of it, but the only ones I've decided to move forward with this season are Flash and Legends of Tomorrow. Arrow pissed me off last season, and Supergirl I could take or leave.
So how are they this season? Should I give Supergirl a second chance? Should I give Arrow a third?
John White
Flash and Arrow are good
Supergirl and Legends are poo
Ryder Flores
Legends and Flash are good
Arrow and Supergirl are poo
Brody Watson
Supergirl has Melissa Benoist running around in a little skirt and thigh high boots.
That's important.
Wyatt Fisher
Flash and Legends. Arrow is genuinely bad TV and not in a fun way like Legends.
Supergirl is a cute.
Jordan Scott
For non capeshit, iZombie is the only one that has truly had more than one good season but it hasn't started up again yet for the third. Riverdale has an interesting start but I'm not sold yet.
Supergirl this season is better than the first season with less cringely gender stuff, but it's still not good and they're forcing a terrible Mon-El/Kara ship. Flash is absolutely garbage. Arrow is more similar to the first two seasons but there's generally been too much damage to recover. Legends is better than the first season but that's not saying much.
I haven't watched any of the animated stuff besides the first season of Vixen. It was solid.
Grayson Carter
I want to like Supergirl and am looking forward to this week's crossover.
Colton Rivera
So no one can agree. Classic.
James White
no I think the other guys were just trolling to be contrarians
I think it's pretty clear which ones are the good ones (Flash and Arrow)
Dylan Davis
Flash isnt good
Izombie and riverdale. Arrow is the best of 4 very bad shows
Jose Wilson
I'd say stay with all of them. Arrow is the best it's been since season 2. Supergirl improved nicely since it's move. Legends is just too much fun to ever pass up. I only lately have issues with Flash. Whole thing feels stale, the relationshit stuff is becoming too much and Barry just keeps getting dumbed down. But I'll stick with it. It can still be pretty okay on occasion.
Andrew Brooks
Arrow season 5 is the best CW show bar none.
This season of Flash has been frusturating and Barry is a shit but there are enough nice moments to keep me going.
Legends of Tomorrow has really wacky premises and fun character interactions but its started shitting the bed logic wise and has forced fan-headcanon explanations for possible comic fuck ups, but its got based as fuck Eobard Thawn Supergirl is worth watching if you like best boy Mon-El, him and Jobhunter are the only reasons i keep coming back.
>REEEEEEE PEOPLE THAT DISAGREE WITH ME ARE CONTARIANS
stop thinking like this, its mental cancer
Jordan Brooks
Mean to say "canon fuck ups"
Hunter Bell
Arrow is a continuous back & forth between points where it looks like it will be good again to dropping like a rock into worse show ever
Anthony Butler
>Arrow season 5 is the best CW show bar none. There's no way I'm going back to the Felicity and Friends show.
Jacob Wright
Good thing for you that it's not that anymore.
Xavier Davis
Felicity is basically a bad guy at this point
Aaron White
But Kara is cute.
Noah Lopez
No Tomorrow, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Jane the Virgin, Frequency, The Originals are just good television shows
Riverdale is addicting drama with so many cuties
Arrow has been pretty hype this season, the Human Target episode was ace and I always love anything with Wild Dog
LoT is silly fun
Supergirl is kinda great, at least they're doing all these zany plots full of aliens and stuff, corny as fuck but entertaining as hell
iZombie is the best comic book show on television by far
Flash can suck a dick, it's so slow and boring and I don't understand how anyone can defend any moment since Eddie shot his dick off. it's been going in circles since.
Parker Butler
I like LoT, it's not a good show but it's silly and comic book-y in ways I appreciate.
The rest are ass.
Oliver Bell
I know nothing about comics and I'm normie as it comes to tastes. Flash really was good and I really enjoyed the first season.
Isaiah Taylor
Riverdale is a fun show with a nice soundtrack.
Liam Rivera
Legends>Flash>Arrow>Supergirl
Ayden Bell
this LoT is as bad as the rest but at least it's funny and entertaining in spots
Matthew Edwards
Arrow is better. Not amazing, but better. But it's becoming increasingly clear that they are making it up as they go along, on both Arrow and Legends of Tomorrow. Supergirl is better than Season 1 in many ways - better fights, better CG, reduced love drama - but worse in others. I wouldn't bother if you have more interesting things on your TV agenda.
Charles Stewart
Flash is shit now. Even if they do no speedster villians in S4 I have doubts the show will get any better. Supergirl is still shit. Arrow is better, had one shit episode, most of the season is decent. LoT is fun like this user said
Easton Gonzalez
Arrow is back to being as good as it was in season two. Felicity isn't even a complete twat any more. Not a complete one.
Supergirl is more Gurl power LGBT nonsense. Watch it for Dean Cain, Teri Hatcher and Kevin Sorbo.
Flash is spinning the drain this season. Almost no part of this show work anymore.
Legends is as close as we will ever get to an American Doctor Who. Pure madcap fun. Just don't think about it too hard. Also, it has Heat Wave. Any negative comments on this show are negated by having Heat Wave here every week.
Brody Baker
Flash has gotten really boring. They have a great cast and setup and they ruin it with terrible writing week after week. STOP making Barry an idiot, STOP with the pointless drama, and STOP with the clichéd WHO COULD THE VILLAIN BE??? shit
Arrow is still bad but not complete trash like S4
I'm not caught up on Supergirl but I liked the first few eps of the season and I haven't watched Legends S2 cuz S1 was boring but I hear good things
Caleb Stewart
>I haven't watched any of the animated stuff besides the first season of Vixen. It was solid. Second season of Vixen was even better.
Andrew Sullivan
Legends is crap. Bad writing and cheap budget
Henry Ortiz
S1 was pretty awful but 2 has been a really good time especially the legion of doom ep and last week's ep
Noah Turner
>So how are they this season? Should I give Supergirl a second chance? Should I give Arrow a third? No, no, & no.
Leo Thompson
Terrible opinion. Flash is terrible this season, while Arrow is good again.
Ryan Wood
Flash sucks, Supergirl and Arrow are really fun this season
Jordan Baker
Barry is in middle of becoming Darth Barry.
Aaron Morgan
>still They were never worth watching to begin with.
Liam Myers
Arrow and Legends are good Flash and Supergirl are poo
Supergirl is constant poo
Dominic Thomas
Some of the Supergirl shows are fine. The first two episodes featuring Clark were a lot of fun and many people here mentioned liking them, particularly the portrayal of Clark/Superman.
I personally don't bother watching Arrow, and I don't find it bothered me for the cross-over. Even the Arrow cross-over, which was their 100 episode and had a lot of reference to things I had no clue about (parents dead? alive? he was engaged?) and I didn't have a problem enjoying it.
Flash is the one I have kept up with the both but I think a lot of people are tired with how the writers decided on a season long big bad (when they promised they wouldn't) and made it another speedster. Also, bringing someone along as a new cast member, when H.R. was also somewhat new, is being done at the expense of Cisco and future/maybe Killer Frost. Plus they were already bringing along Wally more into the show and adding a love interest for Joe, etc. etc. It's gotten unfocused and there's too much idiot-balling by Grant/Barry - people can forgive only so much due to charisma and tone and I think they lost and went past that forgiveness level with the stuff that happened with Zoom at the last batch of episodes of S2. Plus using Johns crappy Flashpoint as a underpinning for this season is just a stupid idea as well. I'll still end up watching all the episodes but I've stopped watching it live and, ATM I'm behind like 2 episodes on SG, 4 of The Flash and everything of LoT (But I plan to marathon those all at once - everything I've seen and heard, has been promising and I thought the first half of the season was excellent and a huge improvement on S1).
I would definitely recommend LoT without reservations.
Benjamin Thomas
Watch it for Laurel
Gabriel Sanchez
As far as CW goes, I think
Arrow (against all odds) actually ended up having the best story.
Flash is getting worse and worse as they realize they can't outdo the "mystery speedster" from season 1, which makes all the pointless filler and re-used character conflicts that much unpalatable. By Season 4, there will undoubtedly be another evil speedster, Wells gets another new personality, Barry and crew move the plot forward by acting stupidly, and all characters will talk about love like it's some abstract objective instead of having any actual chemistry.
Supergirl is watchable for the characters and the most superhero-y plots... even it it looks really really cheap (except that space ship scene in the last ep, which actually looked pretty good). Gotham, despite being intentionally cheesy, is the only show that's actually written like an actual TV series instead of being a year long slog through pointless filler that inches towards a rushed finale that ties every single thing up in 1 episode before repeating the whole thing again next year.
Jackson Garcia
>Marvel fag detected
Luke Perry
arrow got better
supergirl is stupid sometimes, but overall better than season 1
flash is same shit and it's getting old fast (get it?)
legends is garbage and I don't know why I still watch it
Tyler Davis
this user is right sorta
Parker Morales
So.... should I just watch Arrow Season 5 without watching 3 and 4?
Owen Murphy
I just want the Flash to be over with. They promised next season they're gonna get over with Speedster villains. I sure fucking hope so
Gavin Scott
>They promised next season they're gonna get over with Speedster villains.
>Season 4 villain has the power to make other people slower
Ethan Robinson
oh yeah that would be funny. Though they already sorta did that with The Turtle right? How are they even explaining new villains now? Last Season it was from Alternate Earths. Is the entire Third Season of the Flash just him fighting Savitar?
Ian Walker
never bothered with any of them, but I'm curious, what does CW stand for?
Joshua Walker
"C"bs and "W"arner brothers. the channel used to be called the WB network.
Samuel Nelson
people say legends season 2 is good
I got pissed in the Camelot episode, especially the "captain" goodbye part
Joshua Morales
Yeah. You could probably do with at least reading the synopsis of both series since they're a few call-backs to both in season 5.
But yeah don't waste your time sitting through 46 episodes of shit.
Hunter Ramirez
I dunno I dropped the show during season 2.
Jack Sanders
Comic Hunter Zolomon had the "time manipulation" power that made it only look like he had superspeed.
I'm willing to bet that's what they do.
Aaron Bell
I watch LoT and Supergirl and tollerate Flash. all the fags who went back to arrow have stockholm syndrome, it is fucking terrible still. Just cause he's 'hardcore' again doesn't mean the writing has improved and the supporting cast is fucking aweful
Jose Myers
>No Tomorrow I enjoyed the first couple episodes but dropped it cause it seems like it's going to rehash the same 'lets do something fun' every episode with no overarching story at all.
Luis Bell
season 2 really embraces the cheese factor, it's basically a comedy now instead of an action show. And that really works in it's favor
Juan White
wait....fappening has sex scenes of her?
thank you sir.
Lucas Green
>And that really works in it's favor Until you get to fucking retarded scenes like Stein singing the Banana Boat song.
Camden Ramirez
The only good answer is iZombie.
Arrow, Flash, LoT and Supergirl all tend to crawl along normally just to fill out an hour - every so often they'll do something interesting (talking gorilla! anthropomorphic shark!), and it's just enough of a hook to keep the viewers waiting on the next moment.
Ayden Scott
I laughed, but mainly cause of Mick not knowing what the fuck was going on. I hated it at first but then started laughing as it dragged on.
Ryder Lopez
Arrow>Supergirl>Legends>>>>>>>>Flash
Kevin Rodriguez
This all of this.
James Lopez
Legends were really good last couple of episodes. It's still damn, but the show seems to finally embrace the silliness. Arrow is ok, not that bad, but nothing spectacular really. First episodes of S5 were better. Flash is absolute garbage and the series at its worst right now.
Stopper watching Supergirl a while age.
Samuel Russell
So...any word on whether Black Lightning will be Arrowverse or of Supergirl's earth? Kind of think Supergirl needs to fill out her world with supers a bit more and that'd be a better choice.
Ayden Sanders
>muh company wars Fuck off, faggot.
Nathan Harris
Season 2 has been a huge step down from season 1. They went from having an ongoing plot to the most formulaic main story any of these shows has come up with yet, and has mostly stopped making attempts at character development outside of the two boring new characters. They brought in good villains, but not good writers so nothing interesting has happened with them. Season 1 was a bad show with potential, season 2 is just a terrible show.
Arrow is still much worse than its first two seasons, but standards have gotten low enough for some people to be happy with it for improving from season 4.
Flash is at its worst right now, huge waste of potential. This show hasn't had anything good since Wellsobard.
Supergirl isn't even worth considering.
iZombie and Riverdale are awful.
James Perry
>Season 1 was a bad show with potential
What potential? Was it after they let Vandal go for the 15th time?
Elijah Bell
Could be a third Earth
Owen Evans
Shit taste all around.
Charles Brown
There is just so much incorrect with this post it's hard to start. So like the other guy said, shit fucking taste.
Eli Allen
I hope not. Especially when there's these two worlds he could easily fit in.
Jason Collins
Gotham isn't CW, and thank god for that
Daniel Bailey
Yeah Gotham would actually be good.
Mason Turner
Watch 3 and 4 if you got nothing better to watch or do.
Isaiah Sanchez
I'd honestly not recommend watching s3 and 4 at all... Their tone and quality is really inconsistent with s1 2 and 5.
It honestly might make more sense if you just skipped em and assumed Laurel was hit by a bus, and now Oliver is really mad about it, because he wasn't good enough to stop the bus.
Luis Thomas
dropped all of them
Easton Davis
Why do you want him to suffer?
Jayden Myers
Flash is good, but is not season one. Need improvement fast. I really enjoy all the Multiverse thing.
I dropped Arrow after season three. Legends is really fun, but this second part of the season is kinda of boring.
I don't watch Supergirl. It's just not for me.
Jason Rogers
Reading some of the theories on r/FlashTV makes me want to kill myself.
Evan Cook
>Letting them convince you to rewatch Felicity and Friends: The Show
Elijah Diaz
Season 5 is good though.
Brayden Rodriguez
Her clit is online for the world to see, your argument is irrelevant
William Robinson
Anyone who didn't watch this back when it was on air missed out
Dylan Allen
Gotham is amazing you hacks
James Lopez
...
Dominic Campbell
Is the difference that CBS put research points into railroad?
Eli Jones
Not CBS, Fox. I'm not drunk enough for this level of analysis.
Justin Sanders
It's okay, I stopped watching after the proto joker died. After that every villain just lowered their brow when they spoke, so evil!
Landon Morris
>death stopping anyone in Gotham
Blake Ross
this season 5 started out ok because Felicity was being kept to a minimum but more and more focus is getting switched back to her now that she has a secret hacker army she hasn't told Ollie about
David Richardson
Arrow's pretty great this season
Jonathan Cruz
Kill yourself.
Connor Wilson
The latest season of Arrow is decent, Flash season 3 is a mess, Supergirl and Legends are meh but watchable. It depends on the season at best: seasons 3 and 4 of Arrow were HORRIBLE and season 1 of Legends was boring. Supergirl season 1 only gets good when Martian Manhunter shows up. Flash season 2 was ok but they dragged the Zoom thing for too long, imo.
Camden Robinson
No its not.
Justin Martinez
Arrow season 5 has been incredibly tolerable. So yeah that
Justin Fisher
Kino webm
Carson Howard
Not all of season 3 was bad. The first half was good, it only went downhill after Oliver fought Ra's. Drop all of season 4 except for the Constantine episode.
Charles Collins
So did Barry sustain any serious head injuries to explain how retarded he's been written lately? I mean drooling retard retarded.
Joshua Diaz
They need to dumb him down in order to accomodate his support crew. Killer Frost should have left by now. Original Wells should technically still be alive cause of Flashpoint. They should have held off on Wally till the next season.
Charles Torres
I caught up on Arrow. This season is actually decent. Flash is bad. And Legends is decent.
Curious, how did Sup Forums react to the MUH GUNS episode, and the Prometheus reveal?
