the life cycle of every superhero show on the CW

1. Let's make a show about a superhero!
2. Let's give them a fun, diverse supporting cast!
3. This is going great!
4. If one superhero is good, more superheroes are better. Let's make the fun, diverse supporting cast into superheroes, too!
5. Oh wait, now we have to scale all our antagonists to account for the fact that there are multiple superheroes available to fight them.
6. This is getting out of hand, we don't have the budget for this.
7. Better introduce petty interpersonal drama so the superheroes don't have the team cohesion to effectively fight our latest god-villain!
8. shit fuck people aren't watching anymore because our show is annoying and terrible now
9. kill off some of the superheroes for ratings
10. wait shit fuck people are mad we murdered our fun, diverse supporting cast
11. introduce more superheroes
12. repeat steps 5-11 forever
13. welcome to hell
