The Shows On The CW Suck So Bad. by Nobody: 6:21pm On Feb 20, 2015
C'mon the CW a.k.a UPN, a.k.a the WB have always been sub-par in terms of programming. They should consider demographics other than teenage chicks with abandonment issues and that not everyone is a fan of The 100/Vampire Dairies/Gossip Girl bandwagon. Shows like The Original, Arrow, Flash and Beauty And Beast makes struggling networks like NBC feel better about themselves. The only good thing on The CW at the moment is Supernatural.

Grown-ups that watch the aforementioned shows should have their psyche evaluated. It's no longer a question of choice, rather, a mass cry for help.

My ratings on some of the shows produced by the CW.

-Gossip girl 4/10: Basically for teenage boys and girls with abandonment issues. If you're an adult following this show, then you're not okay.

-Reign 5/10: Something is a little off about this show... Yes, I got it now. The plotholes are too embarrassing to be ignored.

-Smallville 6/10: Neat, Sophisticated but marred by too much CGI and little acting

-Arrow 3/10: Seriously, what were they thinking when they created this ridiculous piece of sh*t?? Made Smallville look like a masterpiece.

-Flash 3/10: Another ridiculous piece of sh*t

-The 100 4/10: Bunch of teenagers running around summed it all up. An adult caught following this crap avidly is seriously disturbed.

-The Vampire Diaries 2/10: Possibly the worst vampire themed TV show ever, case closed.

-The Original 5/10: An improvement of it's predecessor but over acting and linear storytelling is killing a once promising show.

-Beauty And The Beast: 1/10: Most ridiculous show on TV hands down.

-Supernatural 7/10: Funny and enchanting, Supernatural is obviously a fluke.

And for the record, just to bang it into your numb skull one more time, I didn't get drawn to the CW shows. Out of curiousity and fair play, I tried to give each one a benefit of doubt as I would any newly minted show out there, but on each occasion couldn't. This opinion of mine didn't arise from bias, but from practical research.

I don't think they can stand HBO and Showtime shows. How could they? Such people are allergic to complex plot and solid contents, they'd rather watch crap with plotholes, that way, their constipated brains can be able to process.

Look at d highest grossing movies in cinemas ,de r all marvel n DC comics movies dat r meant for tweens n teens ...so it's a matter of choice n @op u don't hv to castigate an adult watching TV shows like "The 100" or "The vampire diaries" just cos u don't like dem ,like u said "it's ur opinion" n u shouldn't trample upon other ppl's opinions in order to elevate urs ....#peace

@Parrotibaba, first of all, thank you for admitting that The CW shows are inferior to those of HBO and Co. Acceptance is the first step to healing. Meanwhile, the rest of your arguments were very flawed. ABC is a family network, and that alone gives them the flexibility of creating TV shows that covers all demographic. They were famed for their family friendly programming such as Modern Family, Castle, How To Get Away With Murder and Grey's Anatomy. Do they dabble occasionally in fantasy? Why not? As a family network, it's only fair that young adults preferences mustn't be left out. That's where Agent Carter and Agent Of shield comes in. What sets ABC apart from The CW? Fantasy is a full-time job for the former, whereas that particular genre is merely a part of ABC's massive collection of genres.

Okay, let's talk Movies. You made a grave mistake by referring Marvel and DC comics high grossing productions as teen movies. You couldn't be more wrong. One mistake people consistently make is by ranking TV series and Movies in the same category. Movie is a big screen motion picture, whereas TV series is a small screen motion picture. Both have different set of rules. Any production spawned from fantasy that consumed a lot of money and manpower in order to produce is most definitely not for teens alone, it's for a larger audience. The same cannot be said of a marvel co-produced TV show, cuz it's basically a watered down, weekly representation of a bestselling fantasy that can only attract the teen demographics.

CW is not catching up to the other networks as you implied, au contraire... it's getting left behind. It's shows are getting b*tch slapped every week by the big 4 rivals and Cable. It's News broadcasts are receiving similar punishment. And as if that ain't enough, it's other affiliates are adopting their own identities, for example, a formerly called The CW-NWPN news network based in Buffalo, New York, now wants to be known only as NWPN. Several similar cases have been reported across the country. The CW is toast.

With The CW, everything's relative. Any success pales in comparison to that of the other networks, and many shows survive on The CW schedule for years even though they'd be axed almost immediately elsewhere FACT.

Lolz. That's where you got it wrong. HBO and AMC will never dabble in silly teenage Vampire and Zombie TV shows when they could easily create bad-ass adult versions. Ever heard of True Blood and The Walking Dead? Yup. That's how the adults play.

Living in denial will not do you much good, bro. A solid show like "Crisis" that was cancelled by NBC after airing for only a season would have spanned for several seasons had it been it were a CW show. What About Almost Human? A FOX show that was head and shoulder above most of the shows you find in CW's schedule, but was cancelled because of poor ratings. The so-called poor ratings was higher than the weekly ratings of TVD and Beauty And The Beast combined BTW, and yet those CW shows survived. That should tell you something.

The fact is that the CW has really tried, go check some of the reviews of their shows frm people round the world.Take nairaland for example TVD and TO are the ones that hv the highest number of comments on the tv/movie section.
They hv also gotten lots of awards.

You still don't want to admit the fact that capturing your target audience is what mostly keeps shows running for long,so even when ratings start to dip,you still have the select group of loyal fans who would still keep watching
I really don't know the denial you say I live in.the 100 vd and originals are good shows imo not great but good enough to watch for fun they are not as terrible as you claim.

The CW have always been there. It used to be UPN, then changed it's name to WB before finally adopting it's present name. As for the reviews, don't even get me started on that. The only favorable reviews coming The CW way are from it's hardcore fans. And having a large percentage of fans doesn't necessarily translate to a show or shows being great, rather it speaks much about the exposure of the kind of people that patronize Nairaland TV/Movies section. Go to reddit, and see castigation at it's peak. Adult just don't like The CW and that's a fact.

wait guy are u saying that a show might be really poor and it wud still have a lot of fans shoo!! yes I know some shows are better dan some no doubt but u cant hv a large fan base if the series is crap. By the way the comments on nairaland are they all from teens are dere not adults there too, guy pls dont generalise it u might not like it based on ur perception. I have seen people criticise great shows just becos dere is something dere dey might not like.
