ha! like I expected, some people are seeing MM for the first time through stuff like this.

DC has full rights to everything Constantine related. NBC has nothing, and don't care.

90% of the DC TV collectibles have been terrible tbh.
 
I know everyone says that them being Comic Book Shows is what is killing the chances of an Emmy win, but wouldn't them being on the CW also be a major aspect? I can't remember anything from the CW winning an Emmy. CW always seems like the type of show to win at the more Teen-aimed awards or in some specific cases maybe the Golden Globes.

I don't know if everybody is saying that, it's well known that Emmys don't do The CW. Gina Rodriguez winning the best actress Golden Globe but not even getting an Emmy nomination cemented that. The Flash got a special effects nomination last year, Crazy Ex got some musical ones this year but they're completely ignored for anything major.

King Shark and Grodd were definitely way above average which is even more impressive given the show's budget constraints. I can't remember the last time I had been impressed with CGI effects on a television show.

It is the CW thing. They should still get technical nominations like other comic book shows. But the minute they didn't nominate GOLDEN GLOBE WINNER! Jane the Virgin.
The Emmy winner is the show that is usually the biggest winner of the previous year. They don't like change. See GoT winning last year. It is why they keep nominating Homeland, Game of Thrones, ...
