I'm just joking, my intention was to poke fun at another trope of the arrowverse where they had every male character doing the pull up/jumping thing in the ladder.

I know that. You ran with it. So did I.

Give it a look. Stargirl is more than half a season in and nobody's taken off his shirt to show off his abs yet, and it's pretty low on the melodrama. There's been a little, of course, but most of it's been handled with more nuance than I ever saw from Berlanti. And considering the main character is a teenage girl, that feels like quite the feat. It's very different from the other CW shows.

Kind of similar statement that Belmont13 said, I stopped watching these DC WB shows a long time ago. Something about them just got stale and boring. I enjoyed Arrow for like 2-3 seasons, Flash for like 1-2, Black Lightning was pretty ok for the first season and then something happened in season 2 that I just got bored with and Legends was pretty rough from the start but ok for the first season then I just left. I had very little interest in Batwoman as its not really my thing and by the time it came out, I was already pretty bored with the universe so I didnt care to watch. Stargirl I have a bit of curiosity to watch but with the WB DC show fatigue, i m of course hesitant.

Given Stargirl's personal connection to Geoff Johns, I like to think he'd go to the wire to keep her show from being fed to the Berlanti machine. Plus, the man's picked up quite a bit of fan AND Hollywood street-cred, so he could probably leverage that to get his way.

In any case, if it can hold on to its identity, I'm kinda hoping Stargirl will be a sign of things to come.

Don't forget he used to be the president of DC Entertainment. Berlanti used to answer to him.

I never caught this show as nothing about it really apealed to me. I dropped the Arrowverse like 2 seasons ago and never looked back. I think WB/CW should have just cancelled the whole thing and refocus their efforton the other series.
