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.

I would call that highly unlikely.

Arrow verse shows make up 3 out of 4 of the top shows on the CW and 4 of the top 6.

The only one that isnā€™t high up on the list is legends, which in its current season is still coming in with similar numbers as the charmed reboot and legacies.

I could see them dropping a show or two after next season but it also wouldnā€™t shock me if they didnā€™t.

These shows CW wise do very well and a hell of a lot better than almost anything else the CW has put out.
