    Default Will CW's Batwoman Disgrace Batman like Supergirl Disgraced Superman?

    I completely agree with everything they said in this video. The way Superman was disrespected in the Supergirl show really annoyed me. And they did it over and over as a cheap way to elevate Kara. Really bad writing, imo. It's the main reason why I'm not excited about the announced Superman and Lois show.

    How do you Batman and Superman fans feel? Does it bother you?

    Note: I know Ruby Rose has left the show, but they'll surely replace her with a new actress to continue the story.

    Thankfully for myself, I never sat and watched Supergirl because I knew I wouldn't be entertained. But I remember in a crossover Supes said "The world doesn't Superman if it has Supergirl", I turned my T.V. off.

    And from I hear from those who cover Batwoman the show kind of already did with, Batman, by saying he abandoned Gotham.

    You must have missed the whole:

    Fox-"The suit is literal perfection."
    Kane-"it will be, ...when it fits a woman"

    Fans-Why can't they just write Batwoman without implying they are "fixing" Batman - melt down.

    I'm not at all crazy about what went down with Superman, but I think "disgraced" is a little much

    I think "disgraced" is a bit much even if I feel like Superman's portrayal has been hampered by being a supporting character to Supergirl at times.

    As far as Batman...well, if you don't have a problem with him actually killing Joker, I don't think the show's take will bother you.

    I haven't care for what I've seen of CW Superman but kind of seems like clickbait. I haven't watched much of the CW shows beyond their first seasons but the main point the guy seems to bring up about Superman getting jobbed out for Supergirl doesn't seem particularly egregious to call a "disgrace" or even unique to the CW.

    They are tv shows.

    There is no disgracing.

    This is the PRICE you pay when you hold franchises hostage around certain folks.

    This is what happens when you don't allow characters to stand on their own.

    Supergirl or Batwoman can't ruin 2 guys with a ton of movies and shows.
