Part 9/11:
Audience Reception and Future Outlook
Predictably, the show's ratings have suffered significantly, especially after its initial crossover boost in the Crisis on Infinite Earths. The decline reflects an audience that largely criticizes the series for its perceived political agenda overshadowing entertainment. Many fans now tune in for "hate watches" and humorous derision, leading to a sort of grim comedy in watching what was once a promising superhero show devolve into an ideological vehicle.
The recent casting announcement and the character’s new identity suggest that future seasons will continue this trend. The showrunners appear committed to emphasizing diversity and representation above all else, even at the expense of quality storytelling and character integrity.
