I think CW needs to reconsider how it launches its new shows; they did it perfectly with The Flash, showcasing Barry Allen in only two episodes of Arrow in a dedicated two-part story. Barry was a hit, and so we rolled straight to The Flash.

Then Arrow consumed SO MUCH of Season 3 with trying to get Ray Palmer accepted, trying to spin him off into his own show. Personally, I feel like the lackluster response to the character convinced CW to go with a team show "Legends of Tomorrow" rather than a standalone Atom series.

My point is this: CW seems to be going too far in one direction or the other, overselling the new characters (Ray Palmer) or underselling them (Hawkgirl), and should return to the model that proved successful (Flash).

... I'll still watch the pilot episode, though.
