I haven't seen a single one yet. They seem kinda corny to me. Am I wrong?

 

IMO they are entertaining but the quality varies between seasons.

I think theyre generally better than most of the Dc theatrical movies (Except Wonder Woman)

 

Flash and Arrow in S1 and S2 were great but their 3/4 seasons were mediocre or bad(Arrow S4)

Black Lightning is in its 1st season and despite me knowing nothing of the character , I really like it.

IT has a different vibe than the others because the main character is older and has kids and it doesnt really have a villain of the week feel that the others had starting out.

 

Legends was just ok in Season 1 , nd improved significantly in S2 imo.

 

They do have some cheesy elements but I Think overall theyre good.

Well that's why Black Lightning is a bit surprising. It's more like a Netflix series than a CW series. Despite being from the same creative team, it was originally a Fox pilot that The CW picked up. Maybe that is why the show has such a different tone.

 

Not that the other shows have completely identical tones though. Black Lightning is just so far removed from the others tonally. Arrow was previously the most "serious" show. Flash is the more "comic booky" show with a lighter tone. Legends of Tomorrow doesn't take itself seriously and is frankly a bit ridiculous which is part of the shows charm.

MisterBee, I know you aren't too keen on the DC shows but you need to give Black Lightning a try. I'm really digging the show. Tonight's episode was damned good.

 

Heh my queue of movies/TV shows/anime is so damn long already. I'll consider it.

I can't stress enough what a pleasant surprise Black Lighting has been.

Side note: Arrow hasn't been as strong this season as last season. That said. They definitely took an interesting turn in the last episode. Not sure if things can ever be the same after this.
