Looks like Walking dead might become the shambling walking undead thing it tells stories about. Never has a shows subject matter become so apt and representative for the show itself.

The cast was gonna be Starfire, Nightwing , Raven and Hawk & Dove and it had been retooled to be called Blackbirds instead of Titans

Ugh that is terrible, plus i doubt it will have any of the fun of Teen Titans. Sounds very serious and dour.

The worst thing about Walking dead lasting forever is main cast members will want to leave, and that means dying and if someone like Rick or Glenn died people would freak out.

Wikipedia says they were married from 2009-2011. Of course I didn't realize he died in February when I posted that and it doesn't say when they got married, so it could be considerably less time.

How good is the Static comic? The only thing I know of him is the Static Shock cartoon which I thought kicked complete rear end. Didn't pick him up when the New 52 started because I knew that poo poo was gonna get cancelled and thrown in the trash.

Watching the JL show on netflix before It goes. I like how Flash is the doofus of the team, Wonder Woman is the rookie, and Hawkgirl is the sick of your poo poo person. Though I shouldn't be surprised they went with the Alien version rather than the reincarnation one because that was Hawkpeople origin de jour at the time.

Really weird that ABC has three new Marvel shows in development (this, Damage Control, and the John Ridley project), and yet the only one they're full steam ahead on is the direct spinoff of a show with middling (if acceptable in the current broadcast climate) ratings.

Though Powerless being ordered to pilot probably doesn't help Damage Control's chances.

So, I got the first season of Flash for Christmas, but I've had the first two seasons of Arrow on my shelf for a few months now after I got them on sale for cheap in the local record shop. Thus, I'm now watching Arrow for the first time, and it's been pretty enjoyable so far.

I feel I must say, though, I wouldn't like to see whatever regimen they've had Stephen Amell on to get him looking that good! I think about what I manage when I'm at the gym and I'm like :stare: (:shobon:).

Not that I expected them to go full Grail and Herr Starr in season 1, but it sounds like that outside of Cassedy, there won't be any supernatural aspects. It will be just Jesse, his Ex, and a Irish Vampire dealing with Southern lowlifes from the sound of it.

Ugh that does not inspire me with hope. The whole "hunt for God" thing is kinda essential to the series. I was getting a bit worried that they hadn't cast the Saint yet.

In case you weren't drowning enough in comic books on TV, Marvel is developing a SECOND comedy based show on top of the Damage Control pilot.

If this show isn't a live action Squirrel Girl, Marvel is doing it wrong...

I really don't understand why they keep trying to make this a thing. I like AoS a lot and think they have a good dynamic but there's no way in hell they can carry their own show, it's like if they made a Worf spin-off or something...

Oh

Oh

Because the Marvel TV division is different people from the movie division, and because there was drama over the committee that once linked them, I can see the TV people trying way to hard to do... whatever it is the think they are doing. AoS is really not in need of a spin off and it is going to be hilarious when after the "committee" is now solely in charge of TV they end up being the first of the two groups to produce a massive flop. It would be nice if Most Wanted was actually good, but I am really not holding my breath. Unless Marvel becomes more willing to go balls to the wall with their ABC shows, I really have my doubts.

In other news, both Berlanti and CBS President have dropped hints that a Flash/Supergirl crossover was still a possibility this season. Berlanti said they only have a few weeks to figure it out though.

That would be pretty nuts. The hype for the season premieres would wonderful. It could work pretty easy too, they just need Barry to "get lost" in jumps between the two Earths, and end up on SG Earth.

I like Hunter a lot, but spinning them off into a second AOS show is a bummer. I'd rather they try something new on TV than divide their current winning formula into two- most likely - mediocre shows.

I mean, I'm going to watch them, because I'm a sheep, but still.
