>CBS embroiled in negotiation talks with Warner Bros. over costly freshman show

>The network would like the show to come back, sources close to the series say, but there’s a problem. The roughly $3 million per-episode price tag CBS pays to broadcast “Supergirl” – one of the highest license fees ever for a freshman show – isn’t quite justified by the ratings. Thirteen million total viewers tuned in to the heavily promoted premiere back in October, but about half the audience bailed over the season, according to Nielsen.

>That has set the stage for a last-minute stare-down between Moonves and Warner Bros. TV chief Peter Roth. CBS will announce its fall schedule in two weeks at the upfront presentations in New York, so the clock is ticking to hammer out a deal.

>Both sides have a potential out. Moonves could push “Supergirl” to The CW, which as it happens is a joint venture between CBS and Warners (Moonves and his team are responsible for programming the network). Such a switch would make perfect sense. The youth-skewing CW already has “The Flash” and other superhero franchises (there was a crossover between “Supergirl” and “The Flash” this season), and its audience is much more aligned with “Supergirl” than is CBS’ much-grayer viewership.

>Fans have suggested such a move for months and lately the Hollywood rumor mill has gone into overdrive that “Supergirl” is flying to CW. But that move would be fraught for both producers and fans, as budget-conscious CW shows don’t tend to collect huge license fees for the studios. The upshot of a CW shift is that there would very likely be big budget cuts in the offing for “Supergirl.”

Here's an idea. LoT ends and don't bring it back. Cancel Arrow. Take on Supergirl, slash the budget. Reuse sets, cut out all the extras. Cut episodes from 20 to 15. Have last 5 episodes crossover with Flash.

Flash is pretty tight budget wise. Yet they use it a lot better than Supergirl. Idk where the fuck the budget went, maybe filming in LA instead of Canada? Move the production from LA to Canada, get rid of Alley McBeal she's expensive.

Maybe and just maybe we can get away with having two good shows. Also please fire the lead writers for S2, bring back the one who did S1. S2 of Flash was way too meh vs S1. I felt Zoom wasn't even that scary vs Reverse Flash. Zoom just killed everyone, Reverse Flash was methodical and covered up his involvement.

According to Cavanagh, Supergirl's production is moving to Vancouver with the rest of the CW shows.

Higher. The average is $3 million per reg episode. Sometimes higher (Flash crossover, Red Tornado, Red Krypt SG) and some were a bit lower (mostly early episodes where they didn't do that much for power showing.) The pilot was $14 million on its own.
>>
>>82487709
>the same 5 recycled sets arrow and flash have really gets annoying after a while
Some of the same SFX scenes, too. Gotham got as bad during season 2 were they reused lots of the city panning shots, cut down on anything which needed additional SFX to up the cityscape like rooftop chases. The amount of SFX heavy supervillains also got cut down.

Probably. There's a lot off effects but not nearly as much as Flash - Flash arguably looks much better.

Melissa can't fight. She looks like a girl trying to punch, not supergirl. They should scrap fist fights and aim for more flight charges, tackles and throws.

supergirls universe gets wiped out by a mysterious force and she ends up in earth one by some wormhole

>>82489610
Something destroys the universe and she escapes with her close friends. This destroyer of her universe becomes the villain for her next season.

Braniac would be a good one, because you have the twist that the universe is in a bottle, not destroyed.
>>
Could work. Soft reboot. Have Supergirl jump worlds to the CWverse. Easily dump the whole cast if you want. Less big threats in CWverse so less heavy sfx
>>
>>82489732

or the destroyer turns out to be the main villain for the next JL movie

>>82489518
>Melissa can't fight. She looks like a girl trying to punch, not supergirl. They should scrap fist fights and aim for more flight charges, tackles and throws.

This would only increase the budget for the show even more. Someone should post the webm when Kara fights Bizarro SG. That looked so fucking bad with the wire work.

Truth.

My understanding that things like eye lasers aren't too tough, she could do a fly in / tackle (Flash does this shit every ep) and then follow up with a warning shot with heat vision.

>>82487290
Okay, so, budget cuts then.
Flockhart will be out (she's gotta be the most expensive)
I hope Harewood isn't as expensive, or is tempted by the Queen on money, but he's an MBE and may also be too expensive.

So with that, Kara leaves Catco? Maybe takes Winn with her?
DEO moves to a new location to better track down Cadmus?
We never get Director Bones because spooky skellington man would be too expensive to animate?
>>
We could have E1 Jimmy too! Red hair bumbling fool.
>>
>>82490146

The show will mostly go with her being depowered probably. It is the same reason they left clark on the ground.
>>
>>82487644
>>82487438
what does the money even go towards
like catered lunches, team dinners and vacations?
>>
>>82489769
They have to power her down as well.
She's not used to the new sun and it's unique properties. She's about a class 10 in strength and is pretty fast on her feet can fly easily and has blue laser vision and ice breath and can take a few bullets but if she's hit was mortar fire or assault rifles she's screwed.

And if she's out of sunlight for longer then 48 hours she's a normal woman.

It sounds like she's shooting for a crossover, which if my COIE theories are true, this is all to be expected.

>>82489610
It would fuck up the entire dynamic of the show, so I doubt it.

>>82490146
They don't *have* to cut the budget, they just want to. WBTV is charging CBS through the nose for each episode. It's expensive as fuck to shoot in LA and the show was pretty lavish with their on-location shooting (see pic) and set building.

There's a lot of things they could do - splitting production between Vancouver and LA for establishing shots and the occasional desert/street scene - the only problem is that Vancouver looks nothing like LA and that would require really creative editing and shooting with maybe some back and forth. Who even knows if Calista wants to go.

I don't think moving to Vancouver would be for the best, but it would make crossovers easier - part of the reason the Flash crossover looked badly was that Grant had to fly back to Canada and they spliced the footage together for some SFX.

The good news is that Kara will stay on the air, so at least I'm happy about that.
>>
>>82490822

buddy you're under some strange assumption. The only way this show is staying on the air is if it moves to CW.

cost+viewership, this show is gone otherwise

They already said CBS wants it, they're just negotiating over the price. There's a number of ways they could resolve that - moving it to the CW is a measure of last resort.

I'm just going to bemoan that we'll never get to see Cat Grant in her prime sniping at Lois and hitting on Clark.
>>
>>82491028

Not a single source is saying that, everything that has been coming out is saying because they lose half their viewership that CBS isn't right place for the price. So they want to move it to save it sort of deal. CW has women in the right age range and then they could reduce cost.

They already have previous deals though because CW used to be WB, so unlike constantine, she would most likely fit well at CW and is a pre-existing property, I remember a lot of petitions to save it but that was NBC and NBC has been killing tons of shows for years.

Supergirl belongs on the CW because the show was created by CW hacks. It was never intended o be anything better.

but anon can you imagine her face, she won lottery after the fappening getting a show on CBS and now she is getting shunt off to low tier network hell.
>>
>>82493730
No one cares. Supergirl was a CW show on CBS. Benoist was a nobody actress before the role, I bet the fappening actually helped her career. Supergirl was badly conceived, and it needs to ide or either go to the CW where it might be salvaged. Keeping it on CBS it's going to die.

>>82493791

technically it already is dead anon, getting it on cw will resuscitator it though.

>>82493815
Yeah that's not happening. For the CW to afford it, they'd have to slash the budget by half. Moving the production to Vancouver won't be enough to cut it down

why does the Flash universe have to have no Superman exactly? If SuperMAN can exist in Supergirl, then bringing Supergirl to the CWVerse will automatically bring Superman.

The soft reboot was telegraphed in the season finale. With Kara in her own office we would get less and less of Cat Grant if the show moves to Vancouver.

It's not like a second season reboot is without any precedent. Wonder Woman moved networks a day moved from WWII to the present. The 80s Superboy TV show fired the entire cast including Superboy and it went on just fine for three more years. The new star ended up a huge asset as he was a Mark Waid level fan of who would eventually write and direct the show as well.

Even a hard reboot with Kara now on Earth 1 could work. As cool as it is to rip on the CW shows, they're better than literally everything Zack Snyder has ever made. Outside of the Nolan Batman movies, the first Burton Batman and 70s Superman, the CW shows are also better than the collective WB DC movie library. That's even when you count Birds of Prey.

Put the whole damn universe on TV and be done with it.

3 million isn't a lot of money per episode especially for a SFX heavy show. Most of that money is played straight up in full for the season and goes into paying the actors. For example the big bang theory cast gets 1 million dollars each per episode so that show costs much more per episode than supergirl.

TBBT also has twice or three times the ratings depending on the episode and is still highest rated comedy on any channel.

They anchor a lot of other shows as well.

yes please I love supergirl

Mad Men, one of the best shows to come out in the last decade, cost about 2-3 million an episode. The costumes and such are all incredibly well done too.

The problem is that they can't get rid of Nigga Olsen because that would be racist.
>>
>>82487290
I never knew what CW stood for and I am a little disappointed that it's just "CBS+WB"

But now Supergirl originally airing on CBS and being able to move rights over to CW makes a lot more sense

Is that supposed to be shitty VFX? Because I though that was wayyy better than it could have been. I know it's not perfect but it's a live-action kaiju battle on a TV show.
>>
>>82496343

That's because it was a period show, and they were very authentic with it. Also, it reportedly cost them over $1 million to use The Beatles' "Tomorrow Never Knows" in that one episode.

Any MM episode > LoT

To be fair, the one time a legit super feat happend (JJ super jumping) it looked worst than anything on SG.

The areas where SG looked liked crap (alien costumes, super air fights) would have been hard for any tv show to pull off with the money. Flash just limps by blowing its load at creative moments.

That said, there are some instances where they should have just gone for a total resign than butchered it (silver banche).

CUTE! CUUUUUTTTEEE!!!

>>82487290
when Star Trek was on the air, it wasn't even close to that much. Even adjusted for inflation it was about half to 2/3s the price. BSG was about 1-2 mil per episode.

The point was that the VFX won't be any worse if it moved to CW

there is someone in an executive position right now, determined to get felicity and supergirl on screen together as we speak
>>
>>82501043
if anybody whose opinion actually mattered felt that way it would have already been moved. Since it hasn't it's obvious that they are ok with it here and you should just go buy some Prep H for that butthurt you are carrying around

I really wanted it to be good, but it wasn't, so maybe this is for the best.

Licensing fees. That's just the cost to use the illustrious Supergirl name.

So, Felicity becomes Supergirl, right? She's actually from Krypton. Finally, perfect trinity!
>>
>>82490671
Payments for all those Girl Scouts Benoist molested.
She's a monster. A really, REALLY REALLY cute monster. But a monster none the less
>>
Supergirl is better than LoT.

How the fuck is it 3 mill an episode? Special effects I guess? It's normal sets looks worse than Flash most of the time.

And it only has like, 5 sets. The Cat co. set (Cat's office, where Kara works, that outside balcony where Cat and Kara have bad emotional scenes), DEO HQ, Kara's apartment, that one street set and that one Krypton set.

>>82487290
Good, keep all the garbage on one channel

>>82489586
Smallville was decent for awhile. It just went on WAY too long.

3 mil is the license fee per episode.

Why not cancel Arrow, LoT, and Supergirl. Have a whole new show, Felicity.
>>
>>82494818
Cisco got the Flash/Bat signal idea "from a comic"

Good then Limitless gets a bigger budget

Hell, technically Smallville with Kara was just... later Smallville.

This looks more like a sitcom than a superhero show.

Smallville tier special effects was sorta good. Sure they was extremely shit, but they also was so shit that the creators tried their hardest to avoid using them.

just imagine those awful action scenes with an even smaller budget
>>
>>82507840
LoT had a lot of flying. A lot the budget seemed to be from the outrageous fees they had to pay to film in LA. Honestly I don't see why directors bother with LA anymore. California is a lost cause.
>>
>>82489610
they could make a show about their earth-1 doppelgangers and never talk about earth-3 ever again
>>
>>82491906
No, they would give it 1 great season, a second not as good season but still alright, then a 3rd shit show.

Hadn't heard of her, don't think Superman was ever brought up.

>>82487290
I've been saying forever to just let the cw people take over supergirl. It might actually be good now.
>>
>>82507223

I stopped watching during season 2. What's the deal with the felicity hate? What happened between then and now?

I'm legit curious.
>>
>>82487564
Soft reboot. Kara and friends get sucked into E1 and struggle to make a new life for themselves. Kara becomes Power Girl

Oh anon, they have gone out of their way to mention on multiple occasions on multiple episodes that shes jewish.
