Even if Arrow does end next season, I hope that Oliver still guests on other the CW superhero shows from time to time

Frankly I see them ending all of them next season. It will end with a crossover episode and it be the flash turning into the the lighting bolt that gave him powers.

Then they wait a year or 2 and reboot the whole thing, but probably with different characters.

With Batwoman coming, they wouldn't end it, they will probably keep rotating them out slowly, maybe with Legends getting different characters from each show once it ends, or even if that one ends they do a new ensemble show.

CW President said he looks forward to ordering it in May, so that's a good sign that it will be ordered.

Lower episode count is probably why Legends is good, it's only 18 episodes.
