The Arrowverse Thread

[Anxiety Cafe]

Oh, and I forgot to mention the utter dick move of

dragging Sara from her quality show just so she could hear her dad died.

Well, at least we can have faith that the Legends writers will incorporate it into their season in a successful way

Also, did anyone else hear that in the next crossover this fall, Gotham City and Batwoman will be joining the Arrowverse, as announced by Stephen Amell?

...This doesn't mean they're crossing over with that Gotham show on Fox does it? Cause I refuse to watch that.

I don't believe so, I think it means they're introducing a different Gotham City for the Arrowverse.

Okay then.

Gotham was only renewed for 13 episodes to make it to 100 for syndication, then it's over.

That might be why they’re doing it.

Yeah, they did it for that.

I think it just means that Gotham as a thing has freed up.

This literally just occurred to me, but didn't Supergirl not just name drop Bruce Wayne (like Oliver did on Arrow) but more specifically allude to Batman when she talked about her cousin working with a dude with a lot of issues? Maybe they'll go with Earth that (I can't keep track...Wells is from 2, right? Where it's all a little more art deco and the Flash was whatshisname with the tin hat...Supergirl is Earth whatever that has a Superman and a former person he worked with...)

You know what, they'll probably just go with a solution that's even more confusing and messed up.

I’m not sure if they’re even introducing Batman, they might just have some weird backstory for Batwoman.

I would not be surprised.

EDIT: I doubt they'll do a cape.

Last week's Supergirl was really good so this week's obviously had to be crap.

So the police turn up to an altercation, try to detain the known vigilante but nobody else? Fuck off, show.

Turns out Alex is awful with children, so I guess she ditched Maggie for no good reason.

Mon-El tried to give sage advice, except it was terrible and feeble and Kara just sort of walked off mid-flow. I'm not sure if this was shoddy writing or brilliantly self-aware writing.

Quick, stop the show! Time for an entirely irrelevant discussion of racism!

And there was some kind of plot going on with a magic rock or something. Wasn't really paying attention.

There was, however, this:

"I don't think about you while I'm doing it."
-Lena, lying to Supergirl

Almost like the whole breakup was shoehorned in cause her actress left and they went with a lazy option to end it...

A little off topic, but I hear Colton Haynes has been a confirmed season regular next season for Arrow, and Joe Dinicol announced somewhere on his social media that he was coming back too. So perhaps they'll actually try next season to make it good.

Who even cares anymore. Arrow has gone to shit.

My problem with Ragman on 'Team Arrow' was akin to that sketch Angel Summoner and BMX Bandit, which is not foreign to Green Arrow, seeing as he use to team up with Green Lantern. For a while I just felt that the plan should always be, "Send in the guy with the magic bandages."

Also...still waiting for The Question. I know they want to do it, so it makes me wonder who at DC is sitting on The Question.

Also, CW app, please stop showing me ads for the next episode of the show I'm currently watching.

Speaking of apps, Berlanti is doing Doom Patrol...

[Ameriganastan]

And that's all she wrote for The Flash this season. It was...okay. Way better than last season. Ralph added a lot of needed levity back after that angst fest. But it still had a few ass episodes here and there.

And that chick is their future daughter after all. And she screws up time just like her pops...

So apparently Krypton (that Superman prequel TV series in Syfy) was renewed for the second season. Apparently the reasons because Krypton is Syfy's highest-rated first-season show and to cut off the more expensive The Expanse tv series.

Can't believe this. I was wary about Krypton because I thought it would not be renewed.

1. Called it. Caaaaaalled it. Called it called it called it.
2. Digley too. Called both of them.
3. The Wells carousal will continue, something I thought was clever and now is belabored. "Oh look. This version of Wells is gone. New one next season..." No doubt this is what keeps Tom Cavanaugh interested but the Council of Wells was dumb and felt like a shitty Council of Ricks but without the exaggerated reality to justify it.
4. The Flash, whose super power is to run fast, had to reach a portal before Devoe stopped him. Devoe shows up behind the Flash and Digby and instead of just saying "Later Skater" and just booking it for the portal they monologue for a minute, fuck around until Devoe Agent Smiths and then they book it to the portal. That was some frustrating bullshit.
5. Devoe thought of his wife's betrayal but couldn't sort out that she would walk around the chair and pull out the plug?
6. So, Flash died punching the satellite...and his daughter travels through time and punches it with him? But then evil Flash would have known about that, or not, I guess. Because this is a whole different time line with Iris in it so I guess it doesn't matter.
7. Did I miss the resolution of Wells saying the same thing as the Flash when he came out of the speed force? What was that about?
8. I did like that this season at least wasn't revolving around yet another speedster and the Flash not being fast enough.
9. Do I want to watch another season about how delicate time is when there's a companion series where they fuck with time with wild abandon?

[Anywhere Else But Here]

That finale was fine. That is all.

[Anywhere Else But Here]

This week's Supergirl was...competent.

The magic rock thing I wasn't paying attention to last week happened this week, and I think they'll use it next week for plot stuff.

[Anywhere Else But Here]

Nghh, Supergirl. Why must you do this?

Weird decision to put a wheelspinner this close to the finale. On the other hand, I don't much mind because I haven't found this season's arc all that compelling.

"Guns are bad!" says the dude running round beating up criminals in military-grade gear.

Oh, fucking hell. Mon-El and Kara make a perfectly good pair of crime-fighting friends. Why are the writers the only people who seem to think they're better as a couple?

[Ameriganastan]

Wakey wakey, fools. Arrowverse is back tonight with The Flash and Black Lightning.

[Nation of Quebec]

Well, it looks like us Canadians are screwed for The Flash. The network that aired it here lost the rights to it (though still has Arrow and Legends). The past seasons are on Netflix so I've asked them if they'll have the new episodes.

Just watch it on the CW's website.

Anyway, good start to the season.

Nora is adorable, Barry finally has a proper bright red Flash suit, Ralph remembered he's a detective and they phased a freaking plane through a building. That was cool.
