6 DC Movies That Would Have Been Better As TV Shows

Summary

• DC movies based on comic book properties are sometimes better suited for TV series due to their episodic nature and long-form storytelling structure.
• TV adaptations can fix problems of overstuffing, poor pacing, and lack of character development found in some DC movies.
• DC movies like Watchmen, Justice League, Suicide Squad, Jonah Hex, Green Lantern, and The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen could have benefited from being conceived as TV series to explore their narratives more effectively.

DC properties have a long history on the big screen, and while several have become iconic parts of the superhero genre, others feel like they may have found more success as TV series. While comic book properties have dominated cinemas for the last decade and a half, the genre's characters almost all got their start in short, episodic stories. By their nature, comic books are usually structured more like long-form TV shows than movies, making the format a natural fit for live-action adaptations.
Even some of the best DC movies may work better on the small screen, but problematic films have even more to gain. TV can help fix problems around overstuffing and poor movie pacing, giving writers more time to explore their narrative worlds. With that in mind, these ten DC movies may have worked better had they been conceived as television series.
