#this was good bait anon i really enjoyed this xDD

[laufire]

smallville was the only good cw show change my mind. (although i do love iris west, otherwise the flash is bleh)

I mean, I’ll always maintain that “good” can a matter of opinion. A lot of shows I love I’d classify as “mixed bag”: some absolutely gr10, fucking groundbreaking stuff paired with unimaginative and frustrating shit you wouldn’t believe, in different doses. And I’d agree the CW does have quite a few of those lol. I think I’d classify Supernatural here. Like, the amount of amazing side characters that show has, some of which fascinate me without meeting them and some of whom I remember vividly ten years later is off the charts and that’s actually really, really hard to pull off. I’d put The 100 here too because when it was good it was fucking amazing, actually xD. The Originals is in this list too. Reign, tragically, for that disappointing ending (to me. Because again, quality can be a matter of perspective).

But shows I’d straight up call good, as per looking at the Wikipedia page (there are a lot I haven’t watched like Burden of Truth or Swap Thing or or or. I haven’t seen a majority, actually. Maybe I should change that xD. I’ve heard good things about some of them but I can’t comment either way, so).

Black Lightning. The only DCCW show that’ll get that from me. I’ll add an asterisk because I’m going to wait to see what I hear about that last season lol.

Legacies. Some things about it frustrate me but I still enjoy it more than I’ve enjoyed most things in years, and that’s what is all about!

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. I never finished it, but what I saw of it was excellent.

Gilmore Girls. It captured mundanity in a way that somehow made it entertaining as shit, okay xD. And it GOT family dynamics. It just did. And idgaf what anyone says, Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life was great too xP

Jane the Virgin. It should go in the “mixed bag” list, but I’m granting it this space for its storylines about money alone, they were amazing.

NIKITA. Like, ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME. If nothing else, you have to respect Nikita, c’mon.

Smallville. Not arguing with you there!

Veronica Mars. Also should belong in “mixed bag”, but that first season. THAT FIRST SEASON.

You come into my house and disrespect the CW animated kid shows line?? With gems like The Batman? Teen Titans? The Spectacular Spider-Man? Iron Man: Armored Adventures (okay, so the art is shitty, so what xD)? Justice League Unlimited? I never finished Winx Club, but it had some good stuff going on there lol.

And hey, you all know me. You know how I feel about The Vampire Diaries. It has plenty that should grant it the “mixed bag” fucking throne, but no other show has marked me this much, and that’s my first criteria for quality. I couldn’t care less about shows who have less of the bad/frustrating stuff but that I forget all about within a couple years. I can say a lot of those were good shows because they offered something rare and enduring that I hardly if ever find anywhere else.

One thing about the CW is that their shows, as a general rule, are not forgettable. They will scar you for life xDD
