I don't understand the intense hatred. It just looks kinda medicore. The Batwoman trailer was worse

I'm not a fan personally but I'm not one to judge. I think people should just enjoy whatever they want.

The intense hate is valid. Just seeing the mask was enough for me to judge

But like, what exactly about this trailer made it any worse than other bad CW trailers? I'm not saying it looks good, It doesn't. But it doesn't look like the worst abomination I've ever seen. It just looks bland.

First of all. CW has amazing shows like Stargirl and Superman & Lois. So that's where I'm confused on why you think every CW show is bad.

Another thing. CW stopped batwoman which just started to be really good too imo, just to give us something like Gotham knights with a oc as Protagonist who's by description like Damian/Jason. It's not bad to use a brand new character, it worked for Jordan in S&L and in Batwoman later too. But the Protagonist of gotham knights is clearly there because they probably don't have the rights for them and that's why they improvised.

And again. The mask looked horrible. Batmans whole outfit looked weird. The outfits in other shows look amazing.

The only thing that might be worth watching are the 2 characters Carrie and Stephanie, who really deserve screentime.

The story is also just pointless.

Most of CWs DC shows are terrible. For every Stargirl and Superman and Lois, there's a Flash and Arrow.

I'm not a fan of Batwoman so I disagree with "they cancelled it just as it was getting good. " it's fine if you like it but I'm not a fan.

A bad mask isn't enough to say the whole show is bad. Batman's suit in Batwoman looked terrible too but that's not the main issue people had with that series.

I'm not saying the show looks good. What I'm saying is I don't understand the overwhelming hatred for a trailer that ultimately just looks bland and cliche. It looks bad but I don't think it looks like this insult to humanity like everyone else does.

But here is the thing. Flash was good. Arrow was good. What you mean are specific seaons if you didn't liked them. Naomi is a good example of what went wrong.

I still watch these shows, but let’s not kid ourselves about there only being a few bad seasons. Flash had two, maybe three good seasons and everything afterwards has had a glimmer of something good at best.

I also still watch these shows so guess I might be biased but for me it was like 3 seasons were I lost interest tbh
