I just started probably my 3rd watch of Arrow and I will follow it with The Flash, Legends of Tomorrow is my least favorite of the three.

Color me surprised that a discussion board is for discussion, something you can't seem to grasp.

Glutton for punishment. I finished Arrow but gave up on the other two once Arrow ended. S2 and S5 of Arrow were some of the best comic book seasons ever. Manu Bennett is the only Deathstroke to me. A lot of the other seasons were trash.

He was great in the role. I wasn't a big fan of the election and the alternate reality seasons. These shows have some of the best crossovers, I love Flash vs Arrow shows.

You should give The Flash a chance, it's a good show other than the fact that they recycle the same villain in different forms for a lot of the show.

I watched up to the season his daughter from the future showed up. Really enjoyed the first two seasons. Gustin was a much better Flash than the crazy guy. Cavanagh playing Reverse Flash and the various Wells was the best part.

I felt like this was a great show until the other shows in the universe forced them to go into a more supernatural direction. When it was akin to Nolan’s Batman real world action it was in its stride. But the expanding universe knocked it off course.

Supergirl was so bad.

Black Lightning was good for one season.

Batwoman was ok.

I enjoyed all of Flash, Arrow, and Legends of Tomorrow.

Batwoman was good until the actress left and they swapped her with a black chick. The storyline about the Alice character was pretty legit.

Barry is soooo whiny. Iris becomes insufferable. Joe is the best character. Great TV dad.

I liked Arrow for about 8 episodes. My wife continued to the end and she liked. I would occasionally wander through the room as she was watching and was surprised at how EVERYONE had a bow by the end.

The first couple of seasons of Arrow and Flash were solid. Arrow lost a little when they toned him down from killing folks, but it wasn't much. By about season 5 though, they started losing steam as Ollie was being moved from righteous vigilante to self-neutering through excessive navel-gazing.

For Flash, it was around season 3 with the Wells duplicitousness being exposed and the miracle tech starting to flow like water.

Legends, for me, was only marginal for Season 1 then went too cheesy.

I thought Black Lightning was decent but Batwoman was hot garbage from the start.

Supergirl was good enough at the beginning, through the first Mon El story. After that it started getting progressively preachy-er.

My view on this comes from my wanting the shows to be more grounded in both story and action. Picking up a suit shouldn't automatically make you Bruce Lee in combat, having seasons with no real moral quandaries and solving things with an over-reliance on miracle tech are all things these shows (at least those that went beyond one season) eventually fell into.
