So I just started watching Supergirl. I'm on episode 2. How long does the show keep up the whole "guys have it better than women" thing? That's a subject that needs to be addressed, but they're beating you over the head with it. Let the story speak for itself. You don't need to spoon feed us the lesson.

I don't think they beat you over the head with it, maybe mentioned it once or twice.
At this point, I'm giving Arrow at least 5 episodes to be compelling and good or I'm going to drop the show. I've stuck with Arrow since the beginning but after the second season things have legitimately been terrible. And the series has failed in a number of ways to move itself forward.
I'm really floored by the often pointless and lack of use of Green Arrow actually using his bow. I'm baffled this show has done nothing interesting with his bow either. No trick arrows except for explosive (which is more sparks) and... net arrows. No electric tazer arrow, smoke arrow, flash bang arrows, sonic arrow, or concussion arrows? It's not like these are in the realm of disbelief, they're not ridiculous like the Glove Arrow. Seriously, it would add a new dynamic.
I just wish this show was more about sharpshooting and espionage than literally walking normally around a hostile environment, and forced hand to hand combat situations.

Sure, but seeing him pick off multiple enemies from afar then swooping in to take on the remainder is far more interesting than swooping into an heavenly guarded area, just walk around until you get into a fight. Most of the time GA is shooting arrows from merely a few feet away from the bad guys.I don't know why they're so resistant to trick arrows. They really want to avoid the less realistic archery stuff, despite all the magic going on.
The main reason it becomes hand to hand combat is simply because it's more exciting to watch than a guy launching arrows from afar.
Not very long as far as I remember.So I just started watching Supergirl. I'm on episode 2. How long does the show keep up the whole "guys have it better than women" thing?

This show also lacks any type of spectacle. You never see GA swinging from rooftop to rooftop in pursuit.
The thing about Arrow season 3 and 4 is that they started off pretty great before falling off. I won't say they were downright bad, just disappointing and kind of boring sometimes. I hope the same doesn't happen this season.
I just want them to stop forgetting how badass Olie is supposed to be. This is the man that solo'ed damn Ra's in a sword fight. Him completely owning Malcolm was great, but shit like not stomping Anarky or getting caught by that evil cop shouldn't happen.
"A shark that does not move forward drowns." Someone needs to bone up on their biology.
While it's true that many sharks need to constantly move forward to pass water through their gills, it's not true of all sharks.

S3 started off bad by fridging Sara, got worse with the complete waste of Komodo, started to get a little better up to the mid-season finale (even with that fight scene where they didn't even really try to hide the stunt double) and then for the most part shit to bed afterwards.
I really feel it's more laziness.Well, yeah, budget.
I really feel it's more laziness.
Arrow looks like it has the least amount of effort put into of all the shows.These are some pretty simple things they should be able to do. For god's sake Nikita had better action and espionage than this show.I don't think that's fair. All of these shows have a lot of effort put into them.
But time constraints and budget greatly affect what you can reasonably pull off.
Uh...really? Season 3's start was bad. It wasn't untill Cupid episode when things picked up for a good stretch of episodes.

I think Arrow looks fine for its age. It was dark Vancouver warehouses in Season 1, it's dark Vancouver warehouses now. They still try to do good fight choreography from time to time. The daylight action sequence in the suburbs with Ollie and Diggle was pretty dope.
I'm more concerned about how The Flash is going to age since it is so reliant on CG. Supergirl too now that I think about it.
Supergirl is supposedly going to actually have a higher VFX budget in season two than it did in its first thanks to the cost cutting of moving to Vancouver whether that's literally higher or just because more can be done with the same cost I'm not sure.

Smallville still looks ok.

The fact that Supernatural has so few regulars (I think it's 3-4) is probably a big reason why it's went for so long.
Gotham starts tomorrw, wish Netlix would have uploaded s2 alittle sooner -_- (s2 gets uploaded tomorrw)
Feel behind on Gotham and a few others last season. Arrow and legends -_-

Gotham fell off shortly after returning from the break, so don't feel too bad about that.
I would never turn down Supergirl.
To be fair, Benoist is waifuIt's weird to be creepily obsessed with a fictional character.
