So, much like when BvS came out....

DC gets shown up by their own TV shows. Remember when BvS came out and they had the first Supergirl/Flash crossover right around that time? And some people (myself included) said "well, the TV shows told us how these crossovers SHOULD look". And now, on the heels of the Justice League, we have the four part Crisis on Earth-X on the CW shows. Yeah, the TV budget shows but again....wow, so THAT'S how you do a big team up with DC characters. A real threat, solid sci-fi, tragedy, humor, characterization.....you've got to think WB is both proud and embarrassed.

MCU is killing in the movies department. Their tv/net shows are embarrassingly bad

DCEU has some interesting shows [I don't watch them though], but their movies are atrocious.

I used to watch The Flash and liked it a fair bit [minus all the emo barf]... but then they had to ruin it by injecting all sorts of speedsters into it. Lost interest fast... though Zoom was quite alright.

Pretty speedster free this season (aside from...you know....Barry). Sure, Reverse Flash was in this crossover, but it was fun AND limited.

Heck, they even shipped Jesse Quick home and sent Wally to Blue Valley.

I can't believe I'm actually liking Supergirl.

Arrow is getting a little shop worn and Legends is just silly (but they lean into that heavily). All that being said, I choked up at the big loss in this crossover and there was a VERY nice Superman 2 homage.

I watched a couple of Legends... but the Hawk couple made me cringe.
