The CW has built an empire out of superhero shows, kicking off four nights of primetime per week with shows all about comic book characters. The trend started in 2012 with Arrow, then expanded to The Flash in 2014 and Legends of Tomorrow in early 2016. This fall, the CW lineup got an addition when Supergirl made the move from CBS.
All three of the original CW shows have their merits. There's Arrow for folks who don't like superpowers, The Flash for people who love the fantastical, and Legends of Tomorrow for viewers who like time travel. The writing generally isn't anything phenomenal, and it tends to be best not to think too hard about the plots and just try to enjoy the ride. Supergirl is a different story. Although everyone has their favorite, thanks to a combination of factors, Supergirl has pushed above and beyond the original shows. Check out our breakdown of the big reasons why it has become the best superhero show on The CW.
