Bad timing.

As someone who doesn't watch them, does this leave *any* of the DC shows on the CW still in production after this season? Or are the new owners getting out of them entirely?

I'm curious because of the news that James Gunn and Peter Safran are taking over the DC Extended Universe, and whether this cleaning up of CW series allows them to tie the movies and TV offerings a bit closer? While DC has always been happier to have outliers and alt-universe versions of their heroes appearing elsewhere - Joker, The Batman - and I think many comic book fans understand this as there have often been mini-series and one-offs that reimagine superheroes ("What if Superman was a communist?"), DC has in the past felt completely unhinged. Different execs were able to do what they liked. 

So while this is maybe not quite a clean slate, it might be getting that way.

IIRC, I believe "Stargirl" and "The Flash" were the only ones renewed for 22-23; "Flash" was set to end this season anyway, so no, I don't think any of the Berlantiverse shows are left once "Stargirl" finishes its run.

Unrelated, there is "Pennyworth", which I think originally aired on EPIX and moved to HBOMax for the current season.  I don't think anything's been said about its future, but given the way the winds have been blowing...
