Eh, with Legends and Doom Patrol, I kinda wish DC would focus on the sillier or more obscure stuff when it comes to live action works right now.

Catching up on Doom Patrol. That's the most Grant Morrison thing you could possibly have. It's what Legends wishes it could be, but they don't have Grant Morrison supplying source material.

What part are you on?

Also, a Blue Beetle show, I want a Blue Beetle show covering all 3 of them. Maybe swapping them out each season or 2 (Probably 2, to really flesh out their stories).

Legends is great without having to rely on that puerile tone those shitty Titanverse shows have. Just cause someone can say "Fuck" doesn't make a show good.

No, it's really not. Cause when you rely on being edgy instead of actually putting effort into the writing, you get stuff like Doom Patrol and Titans...and Arrow...so glad Arrow is almost over.

You just gonna keep saying that or can we have an actual discussion here? Cause I'm curious why anyone defends these shows when they think an overly long scene of a whole town orgasming is comedy.

I still laugh at the word "Uranus" and even I rolled my eyes.

I'm in.

Especially the one who had his suit constantly doing crazy shit.

I was thinking like, Dan can be the campy and classic 1950's all American type (Honestly, maybe making the season(s) a parody or satire could work too), Ted can be kinda like Ironman where he's constantly building and inventing new shit, and Jaime can be like how he is in Young Justice or his stand alone series (A kid basically thrown into the deep end and who's forced to adapt to survive).

They actually mentioned Kord a few times in the Arrowverse. Routh was actually supposed to play him at first instead of Ray Palmer/The Atom. Some kind of copyright issue.

Young Justice is back!

I've been loving it, but apparently the rest of the fanbase thinks it's terrible and should've been put off for another decade. You just can't please them, can you?

Yeah Matt Ryan said something about a crossover but I guess it never happened since the show was cancelled.

I'm not done with the episode, but I was sure enough that it would be that that I clicked the spoiler before finishing.

I'm really trying to be on Batwoman's side here. But they're making it hard. Like the fight scene with Magpie was Iron Fist levels of bad. And the non-ironic use of the term "Batsplaining"...you're killing me here, show.
