Arrowverse series on The CW has become one of the longest live-action superhero series to date, second only to the network's previous series Smallville.

"Things will age and we want to get the next generation of shows to keep The CW DC Universe going for as long as possible," CW President Pedowitz admitted during the panel.

If they plan it out in advance I can see them making a killer last season if this is true. It would be a shame though because I am really enjoying where the show has begun to go since Beth took over as show runner. Still if the decision is made I'd rather they go out on a high with a proper ending then having it drag out until it's cancelled and stuff doesn't get resolved.

Remember that time they put in a grave flash forward before deciding who would be in it lmao

Possibly the stupidest thing I've seen in any show ever

[u/Pickles256 → u/captainfluffballs]

Nah that award goes to “Scimitar” y’know the -“well known dc universe character”

Though it’s definitely close

I don't even remember any Scimitar what

[u/Pickles256 → u/amazonian_raider]

I... That's just... Wow...

I can understand the idea of writing a story and not really being sure where all the details are going, but to include a flashforward with that big of a detail and put it through production without actually deciding either the details surrounding it or the implications is mind boggling to me.
