10 DC Characters That Need A TV Show

Since debuting last year, DC Universe has cemented itself as a marquee streaming service for Warner Bros. Pooling together all of the comic book publisher's efforts under one roof - from comics, to TV and film - it's proven to be a real favourite among fans.

From its live action projects like Titans and Doom Patrol, to its animated works like Harley Quinn and Young Justice Outsiders, DC Universe has become that place that doesn't have to rely on the old favorites all the time to turn a profit, where the obscure and odd parts of this universe that we all know and love can thrive. And with a Stargirl show on the way next year, the question has now become: what other DC characters can this platform give their own show?

The possibilities really are endless in this regard. As such, it only seems apt to start thinking about what DC characters deserved their own show the most. Only characters who haven't made the leap to live action in the past qualify though; if they've already received that treatment, then no dice.

This list is for DC characters who hadn't had the privilege of their own show yet, but could flourish with the creative freedom granted by DC Universe...

Plastic Man, who has appeared in shows such as Batman: The Brave And The Bold in the past, has not actually gotten a show of his own - so it makes perfect sense for him to take the next step on DC Universe.

While his rogues gallery and supporting cast definitely leaves a lot to be desired, that's nothing a talented showrunner couldn't fix. Handled correctly, Plastic Man could make for a truly hilarious slapstick comedy. Think along the lines of DC Superhero Girls' screwball comedy, but unrestrained by kids television standards and practices.

Plastic Man is one of those heroes who's stuck around despite interest in him never being all that high. That's because when used well, he's hilarious, and could easily hold up a comedy series of his own.
