I really love the show, warts and all. For the next CW DC show I want Blazed Canary and cold puns with shameless Prison Break references.

I am so incredibly hyped for Arrow Beyond next week. :woop:

How old is Wentworth Miller? There's a lot of white in his hair, and he doesn't look that old...

He's 43!

^^^ I was on a project once for a Fortune 100 Hollywood owned company. It had a $20MM advertising budget. 18MM of it was for a magazine owned by the parent company.

"Well Magazine X isn't reaching it's numbers this week, better move 8 figures from column ZX to column B" "Yay it's profitable!"

This is pretty much standard operating procedure for all of Hollywood. 2 Million actually spent, 20 million charged to the production so that nothing ever makes money on paper, thus no paying for those pesky backend points.

No, Stein wasn't affected by Flashpoint. They're talking about what happened to the Original Harrison Wells when Thawne stole his identity. Thawne engineered a car crash as a cover story, stole the OG Wells' face and killed him, then killed his wife to silence the only other potential witness, claiming she died in the crash while he "survived".

My reading comprehension is bad :cripes:

After the crossover I decided to give the next episode of this a shot, they last me really early in the first season, I gotta say I like season 2 so far, it is really fun. My wife and I lost our poo poo when Sara winked at the "corrupted women" of Salem.

That said, this season feels like it is leading to Thawne getting Gideon. But then something broke my brain in the last episode. The face swapper thing that he used to kill the real Wells being nonlethal when used on Stein. In order for this to make sense this has to be a younger Thawne than the one that was the villain of season 1 Flash, sooooo why did the face stealing thing kill Wells?

I guess it wouldn't be a thing if I'm just forgetting Thawne stealing real Well's face before vibrohanding him. But I'm pretty sure I remember the face thing turning wells into a dried out corpse.

Fun show though!

Thawne specifically said he'd modified it not to kill.

So are we all in agreement this is the best CW DC show right now? The show should get points alone for the dramatic improvement from s1 to s2.

They've all got their charms, and this year is a serious upgrade over the previous but yes, The Idiots of Tomorrow is now the show I look forward to the most.

I laughed when George learned the word Kaboom. I laughed again when Mick used himself as a bowling ball and knocked over a dozen redcoats. Yet again I laughed when the dude pointed the rifle at Mick. It was a good sequence. This was a good episode. This is a good show.

I mean it's show about people traveling back in time and going on adventures with famous people, with a season plot involving a secret organisation that tries to control the world. So far I've enjoyed it a lot.

They end up using the same historical figures in the plot on the same week. The most recent was Al Capone and Untouchables jokes. Timeless is entertaining, not amazing though.

Right up until the end I thought Captain Sarah Lance, Time Lesbian was gonna fall short on this one but nope she bagged another one. Good job idiots.

Christ this show is so much fun.

Friendly reminder that Captain Sarah Lance started out as the Green Arrow's dead lover who then became Black Canary.

I love this stupid show so much.

Who was then killed by Oliver's mind controlled sister only to later be revived by a Lazarus Pit and her soul restored by Constantine, a personal friend of the Green Arrow where they met on an isolated island in the South China Sea

Most of the crew has something has something they could do with the spear.

Sarah could bring Laurel back to life
Jax could bring his father back to life
Stein could cement his daughter in reality so she's not an aberration
Mick could bring Snart back to life, and/or stop his family dying in the fire he started
Amya could bring Rex back to life
Ray could bring his fiancée back to life
Rip could bring his wife and daughter back to life turn his spaceship into a high-tech Real Doll

This won't even occur to them. They're idiots
