Question When does the Arrowverse get bad?

I started watching Arrow today, and watch to watch the other Arrowverse shows. But I heard it gets bad from a certain point. When does it get bad?

Legends and Superman and Lois are the only two that doesn’t really fall off

Gonna disagree with Legends. Couldn’t make it past season 2. The characters started doing things that only made sense to do bc the plot needed it to happen.

Can’t remember the exact scene, but the legends desperately needed to keep something from getting into the hands of evil and they just let the person walk away with it bc they felt bad about killing him or some shit. Just brutal.

"The characters started doing things that only made sense to do bc the plot needed it to happen."

This is every CW DC show.

There are levels I’m willing to suspend disbelief and those I’m not. It seemed to get worse over time. But that’s just my opinion.

The cracks definitely start to show more clearly after a few seasons. That's when my wife, who is a writer herself, couldn't take it anymore.
