A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
she was a woman in a happy, healthy marriage.
There certainly seems to be a vendetta against them, and since the guy's the hero, she's the obstacle.
Bea! I always thought she got her powers back home, now that I think about it--that's the only name other than Dibney and Raymond that rang a bell. Maybe Dibny's alive and just spread a molecule thin somewhere. Pull it together, man!
Okay, now to see who the others are.
Gotham--who's watching that? Is it fair to say DC has 3 decent TV properties (live action, anyway--I'm out of touch on the animation front) (I find Constantine horrific enough, but I don't like anyone--I would like Zed to be the chosen one of some sort...who was that Vertigo kid no one thinks about after Harry Potter from Books of Magic--chosen like that) and Marvel has 1.5 (I'm sure Agent Carter's future is rosy after the kick in the pants Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (I got that far, how could I leave out the dots?) of quality that they got.
Ugh, and I totally missed that was Poison Ivy. Only was thinking about each new adult. It's weird thinking about Dent as a generation almost older than Bruce. And Selina needs to lose the goggles. She hasn't grown into them yet. Otherwise she's great casting.
But I don't see how Bruce lives through puberty if he doesn't pre-Batman more. He's so damned NICE (you were right, Kyle) it makes me ache. How can you have a thread of horror like that and still appear unjaded? You are growing neither into a psychotic detective with family issues (lost a parent? want to move in with me and FIGHT CRIME (aka risk bodily harm) --I might even let you go to high school, if you like--nor the millionaire playboy.
Shit, I really want to read Batman comics now: comic spoiler
is Damian back?
DC is going through another not-a-reboot right now. He's probably mixed in there somewhere, but who knows for how long.
That left me with 0.5% hope I'll buy DC again.
I just like Batman SO much.
That article made my head hurt. I'll stick with Lumberjanes and Sex Criminals (an admittedly odd combination).
What about
Saga,
Steph? Are you not reading
Saga
?
WHY ARE YOU NOT READING SAGA.
Also, WTF
Convergence.
I took the metaphor to mean the network was slowing down (i.e., only airing the initial 13 and not filming a full season) but not yet canceling it.
Fair enough. I was reading the show as being pretty much stopped by the cut order, which I can see that you're right, they could extend the season.
Elongated man was treated as a joke of a character in the 70's, if I recall. I seem to remember a red outfit and sunglasses.
ETA: or was that plastic man? hmm. Off to Google!
Yep. Plastic man. Whew. No wonder I was surprised when I saw EMan later and he was drawn more seriously.
I was conflating the two.
Hey, at least I wasn't thinking of Mr Fantastic. I stayed within the right universe.
I'm sad yet reassured that almost nothing DC has put out since 2006 makes me regret my boycott.
Batman still exists and gets new canon I know nothing about. That's made me kinda sad for years.
