DC Comics Multimedia General - A crisis of infinite fuck ups

Almost every time Iris was on screen it made my blood boil and it was her actions that did that. I liked Joe, I really wish she hadn't been in the show and we had just gotten more scenes of Barry and Joe working together.
Still not as bad as Felicity from Arrow. A key plotpoint in a crossover is that she inadvertedly causes Vandal Savage to win because she whined about her fiance not telling her about the son he didn't even know he had.
Having a sidekick or Alfred is one thing. But Can you imagine how terrible the Battison or Nolan films would be of they had a soap opera style "team Batman" behind them?

It might work for some heroes, even Batman has had Oracle helping him. But the CW over used this format as as a lazy crutch.
Worst part was when Supergirl gradually got her own team with heroes like Martian Manhunter, Guardian, Brainiac, and Dreamer, they decided to go by the "Super Friends". Yes, seriously.
that was the big difference between Goku and Superman was Goku had kids and then had to go train and fight and save the world and be dead and shit but he had kids to worry about too
I think part of why Super focused more on Goku's home life was to stop all the "Goku's a bad dad" memes DBZA helped popularize.
Batwoman had an episode where a teenage hacker got a slap on the wrist after committing terrorist acts because she got outed as lesbian before telling her intolerant parents. She also whined about having no representation, which led to Batwoman publicly revealing she munches carpets.
In hindsight, it's hilarious how much The CW was banking on Batwoman being a success. Arrow was coming to an end, so they needed a new cowl to fill his role. In the Crisis on Infinite Earths adaptation, they dragged her into a conflict where most of the heroes had years or even decades of experience, and really tried to act like she was on the same footing as the other heroes. Not only did they try to set up a World's Finest friendship with Supergirl, they killed off Kevin Conroy's only live-action portrayal of Bruce Wayne to hype her up as one of the seven Paragons to save the multiverse, and even made her one of the founding members of the Arrowverse's Justice League.

Buuuuut then COVID cut Batwoman's first season short before Ruby Rose left during production, so the writers had to scramble to craft together a replacement Batwoman nobody really cared about, and the show petered out after its third season.
 
The CW DC shows were terrible when it came to morality. Batwoman had an episode where a teenage hacker got a slap on the wrist after committing terrorist acts because she got outed as lesbian before telling her intolerant parents. She also whined about having no representation, which led to Batwoman publicly revealing she munches carpets. Gotham Knights would justify stealing from a luxurious clothing store because the clothes were made with child labor.
The amount of mental gymnastics the show went through to justify Batwoman letting multiple mass murdering psychos get away scot-free is almost impressive. "Poison Ivy? We'll book you a nice vacation to a jungle. Alice? You're like crack for try hard teenage disaster girls, so we will make up every excuse to let you go even when the only main characters left are the people who you traumatized and/or butchered the loved ones of."
 
You can tell the writers of CW Supergirl struggled to figure out if Kara and Lena should fuck or not because this was such wasteful shit right here. They could have spend more time developing Kara instead of this and the blatant SJW propaganda.
