Just thought I would share this. I am still yet to see the show but do you want to see them crossover with each other and more importantly do you think a crossover could work?

Stephen Amell says Arrow WILL cross over with Black Lightning
"That's just the way that the world works."
Those dreams of an Arrow and Black Lightning crossover just took a step closer to reality thanks to Arrow himself, Stephen Amell.
Despite not having seen the new CW series, the star said that the process of crossovers in the Arrow-verse so far mean that they are likely to meet at some point down the line (despite Black Lightning not being set in the Arrowverse).
"Everyone pretends like we're not going to eventually cross over with Black Lightning but we're probably gonna cross over with Black Lightning because that's just the way that the world works," Amell said at Awesome Con over the weekend (via ComicBook.com).
"I met Cress [Williams] properly, I think, for the first time yesterday. I think maybe we had met incidentally at upfronts or something like that and I was a big fan of his from 90210 when he kind of dated Donna – it's a true story."
He added: "I think that anything you can do to expand the universe and to build out what we've built on our show would be great. So, I'm glad that show's doing well, I hope that it has a very successful run, and I would love to be a small part of it in some way shape, or form."
'Black Lightning'
Black Lightning star: Arrowverse crossover is possible
Of course, there are no plans in place, and The CW's president Mark Pedowitz previously said that Black Lightning was never designed to be part of the Arrowverse.
"With Black Lightning, Fox had the pilot and they passed on it," he told Black Girl Nerds. "So, Salim and Mara came in and said this is what we have. It was different from our other superhero shows and it was never designed to be part of the Arrowverse."
Black Lightning and Arrow both air on The CW.

but they might surprise all of us and get better as the seasons go on. We still haven't seen it here yet and I have no idea when it is going to air 'cause with 'Marvel's The Runaways' finished they are replacing that with 'Supergirl' and 'DC's Legends of Tomorrow' is being replaced by 'The Gifted' and I have seen the guide for this month and it is nowhere in sight but I think we will get it at some point. We got 'Krypton' which we weren't expecting to get this quickly and that is airing on both the SyFy Channel and Fox 8 now.
