DC scheduled GOTHAM, based on Batman, a DC character, to run 8 PM to 9 PM.
DC scheduled SUPERGIRL, based on Superman, a DC character, to run 8:30 to 9:30 PM.
Same evening.
Why would they schedule this competing overlap between two of their own properties?
As to the near-opening scene saving a plane, didn't DC do that with Brendan Roush in his first SUPERMAN movie? Don't freak out but I also heard this superfeat in a SUPERMAN radio show from the mid-'forties. Bud Collyer was ultra-convincing as Supe.
Also, the quirks in the storyline were predictable as this show involves people behind DC product ARROW whose storyline seems to change as their writers' inabilities to work out story arcs decide to change arbitrarily. A traditional cliffhanger? Car going off cliff and down ends one week. Next week, car actually swerved safely.
