Like last year think it needs it's own thread

Ive been doing this for all shows, including Batwoman to try and get caught up.Man this better be worth it. Have been binge watching last 2 seasons of Arrow so as to not miss out on anything.
Yeah its so annoying. That makes me think after ep 3 there will be a big cliffhanger.I think I just saw a tv schedule for this and the 3rd episode. The Flash is on the 10th of December and the the 4th and 5th Arrow and Legends (concluding parts) isn’t till the 14th of January.
Hasnt been mentioned so far. I suspect it might not until maybe the episode before as its a different Earth.The first Batwoman episode I will be watching will be the one regarding the Crossover. Are there any mentions of it as there are in The Flash and Arrow?
Don't even have the time to get into Batwoman and Black Lightning. At least with Arrow, I was watching it till the Damien Darkh season.Some of the names announced for this is cool.

Ive only watched black lightning season 1 but it looks like I might not need to catch up on that. (hopefully)

It’s the same earth as Bazza and Ollie innit?Hasnt been mentioned so far. I suspect it might not until maybe the episode before as its a different Earth.
Yeah I believe so based on Elseworlds. I reckon they should have made it a different world though, or they just need to ensure that Batwoman doesnt have any take over the world villains and keep it more Gotham city grounded.It’s the same earth as Bazza and Ollie innit?
Arrow season 5 was great. The follow up was so bad though. This season has been fun so far though. Damien was also so much better when used on Legends.Don't even have the time to get into Batwoman and Black Lightning. At least with Arrow, I was watching it till the Damien Darkh season.

Black Lightning season 1 was fun as it didnt waste half a season going into origin story and him learning his powers. I need to pick it up. TBH, Batwoman you havent missed much. If you watched Elseworlds you got pretty much all you needed to know regarding Batwoman.
I think, especially where TV is concerned, it's incredibly difficult to keep something so "formulaic" - fresh and interesting for multiple seasons without losing some quality. The key is probably knowing when to quit, but as with most things in life, they're usually milked until well past their expiry dates.He was such a great villain. The way that season ended was just
Loved season 5 but yeah been going downhill since then. Just into season 7 now.
It's infuriating how most of these CW shows have started so well only for the quality to drop off a cliff.
Nah, Batwoman, Arrow and Flash are all Earth 1.Hasnt been mentioned so far. I suspect it might not until maybe the episode before as its a different Earth.
Yeah, I meant the Earth that Black Siren was from disappearing. See aboveNah, Batwoman, Arrow and Flash are all Earth 1.
I think one of the issues has been changing of writers. So isnt it something like, Arrows went to Flash. And then to Legends. Or something. I do think writing for these shows should be easier than it has been given the amount of source material. One of the issues is when they start favouring a character or two (like they did with Felicity in Arrow, and made season 4 about her and her family, or took focus away from Flash in... The Flash)He was such a great villain. The way that season ended was just

Ironically, I think it would have suited these shows better if they stuck to the formula of the first season. After a drop off, these shows immediately picked up when they went back to the way it was in the first season.I think, especially where TV is concerned, it's incredibly difficult to keep something so "formulaic" - fresh and interesting for multiple seasons without losing some quality.

You're right, the writing has been a major let down. I don't mind the side character stories as long as they are interesting.Yeah, I meant the Earth that Black Siren was from disappearing. See above

Yeah, I know what you're getting at. Also, they all have a ton of materials to follow/write from, which should have helped - especially as a lot of their fanbase would have been picked up automatically as followers from the comics etc.Ironically, I think it would have suited these shows better if they stuck to the formula of the first season.

And, what do you mean took the focus away from the Flash? WE ARE THE FLASH
You gatekeeping people's DC fix?Look at that tiny ass Superman.
This plot with CW budget? Just watch the animated movies instead. This honestly won't come close in quality.
Weird right, I see quite a few people don't like others enjoyingYou gatekeeping people's DC fix?
Awesome
Are you gatekeeping me being able to comment on this?You gatekeeping people's DC fix?
Not in the slightest.Are you gatekeeping me being able to comment on this?
It will be the 2nd for me , I just couldn't bring myself watching the rest of that show after the terrible terrible first episodeThe first Batwoman episode I will be watching will be the one regarding the Crossover. Are there any mentions of it as there are in The Flash and Arrow?
I believe the very last scene of the very last episode?Be funny if the have Hochelin stand next to Welling and Routh. Did Welling ever actually put on the suit in Smallville?
Aye, though even that wasn't really the full suit. All you see is the blue shirt and Superman symbol under his shirt.
I believe the very last scene of the very last episode?
Question, so I’ve pretty much dropped all the shows bar Arrow but going by the trailers it looks like I missed stuff. Just so I don’t have to watch 1 more second of Supergirl than is absolutely necessary what episode should I jump in at?
Last Flash I watched was that James Bond secret agent 1.
There's lot of continuity across seasons with new characters coming and going and coming back so I suggest you read up rather than binge watch them all.Question, so I’ve pretty much dropped all the shows bar Arrow but going by the trailers it looks like I missed stuff.

Yeah there is just one bit in the trailer which looks like it’s from SG which would have massive impact on the future of not only SG but crisis. Guessing it must be from the latest episode then.Im catching up on them. I have an ep left of Supergirl and Batwoman, and 2 left for Arrow and Flash.
So far no mentions of Crisis on SG or BW at all.
Crisis has been mentioned in Flash and Arrow - pretty much both seasons have been gearing up to it. (Ive enjoyed both shows this season)
You dont even need to watch SG it seems (tho ill confirm after watching the last ep). Its been good whenever its focused on the Luthors (lex or Lena)
BW you dont have to watch at all - her appearance in the crossover last year will do.
Oh and the only other big character you need to know about is Black Lightning. But im 2 seasons behind that (but dont think you need to be caught up on that)
So last two mins of BW has a crisis part but it's not even to do with BWYeah there is just one bit in the trailer which looks like it’s from SG which would have massive impact on the future of not only SG but crisis. Guessing it must be from the latest episode then.
