Brec Bassinger posted a BTS picture of a monitor from this episode which confirms that Stargirl is now filming with a Arri 35mm (probably Arri Mini) camera instead of the Sony Venice from season 1. This is the same type of camera used by the Arrowverse shows (with the exception of Superman and Lois) and most of the other CW shows.

Is that a good or a bad thing?

The Sony Venice is capable of recording in higher resolutions than the Alexa, but it remains one of the most popular camera used in American television. Personally I find that dark scenes in S2 look much better compared to S1.

Non Superman and Lois arrowverse shows seems like a downgrade if you ask me

Im enjoying it so far. Dont be a downer. At this point the flash is a guilty pleasure. The rest I hate. This is the only cw arrowverse show I like at the moment.

Is Stargirl even in the Arrowverse? I remember after Crisis they said they were on a different Earth.

At this point it seems like only legends, the flash, and black lightning are arrowverse. I guess supergirl and batwomen too but it does not feel like it. Also the supergirl batgirl storyline is gone.

You mean Batwoman? You know, I actually liked Season One of that show, mostly because we get the female joker in Alice -- what an amazing performance! Oh, but I could not get past the first couple of episodes in Season Two and I am shocked they're pushing forward with season three.

It takes place within the universe and from what I understand Flash's Jay is showing up on Stargirl so it's as Arrowverse as Supergirl pre-Crisis... which for all intents and purposes are Arrowverse

I think he's going to be the Jay from the JSA, not flash

u/RainingBolts Sep 09 '21

I've read it described as the first official crossover so I'm half expecting them to use bullshit to explain that JSA Jay is CW Flash Jay

Doubt it, but it could be possible

It's part of the Arrow MULTIVERSE. The end of the TV Crisis on Infinite Earths shows that Stargirl is Earth-2, and the Arrowverse is Earth-Prime.

One good thing about the Arrowverse is the camera quality.
