I think there are two points of view on this.
WB/Dc literally making as many as they can as fast as they can
1. But
2. Do
3. Arrow
4. Flash
5. Gotham
6. Constantine
7. Super Girl
8. Sandman
9. Suicide Squad
10. Shazaam
11. Lucia error
12. I know I'm missing some.

Marvel
1. MCU movies (10)
2. As
3. Agent Carter
4. DD
5. Luke Cage
6. Iron Fist
7. JJ
8. Defenders

That's a lot but there's a difference. Marvels makes sense, it connects, it's planned. There's a goal... yes profit is the goal but there's long term product maximization planned. DC/WB are literally pumping out as many properties as they can and seeing what sticks. That rubs me the wrong way. I'll watch Flash and some others regardless, it's not the brand that bothers me, it's the seeing an opportunity and saturating the market to get a share. That bothers me with CB properties because I really enjoy them. It's a disservice to fans.
