That's the only place I've seen it referred to as a "tv movie". Everywhere else I've seen it referred to as a new series, and going by the schedule having it air from 8-9pm, that'd be a pretty short movie.

IMDB lists failed pilots, which this was at Showtime, as TV movies. They just haven't updated with it being unexpectedly picked up by the CW.

Unfortunately, DC has been taking all the movie characters out of the TV shows. Most notably, they killed off the CW Deadshot right after announcing a Suicide Squad movie. Because DC assumes we are all dumb and can't tell the difference between some white guy and Will Smith.

Tell me you don't seriously believe he is dead? It's not even the first time they "killed him" on this show, for God's sake...

They have flat out said that suicide squad in general and Deadshot in particular had to be written off the show due to the upcoming movie. While some things, such as more Deathstroke, are in the maybe category, they have said that DC has made Deadshot and Harley Quinn a firm no.

OK, I must have missed that, sorry. I knew they said Harley was out, but not Deadshot.

I still say it's likely he will be back at some point in the future. It was extremely obvious the way they shot his "death" that it was not supposed to be thought of as such.
