I'm going to be disappointed if Cat and and Lord disappear. I enjoyed the frenemy thing Lord had going on, and Cat is an excellent character, who I feel is an important part of the show.

We just need one more DC-CW show so that we can have a full weeks run, and a weeklong crossover. We've got a nicely fleshed out potential Justice league already. Who to base it around though? Batman is too much of an overlap with Green Arrow, the hawk people are too bland and miscast to be useful as anything other than side characters in an ensemble (and barely at that). Ray and firestorm are both fun characters, but they're already on legends and I don't think either of them could carry a show. Constantine is fun, but they seem reluctant to let the CW shows use him.

Maybe Wonder Woman, or green lantern? They've been dropping hints about the latter on flash.

They seemed to have significantly toned down the effect of green kryptonite in this show. At least, supergirl doesn't collapse or become violently ill just by being in its presence, the way it was on smallville.

Given that there are no kryptonians on earth 1, we can only assume that Earth 1 is a dimension where krypton never blew up (or hasn't blown up yet) therefore kara would still be there. Or krypton blew up but they were sent to some other planet to be safe.

Speaking of which, I've never understood why such a highly advanced spacefaring race would only have 2 survivors. Did they not have colonies on other planets? Kryptonians living/working/visiting other planets? There were aliens from numerous species in that prison, so there was clearly a lively exchange of interstellar traffic. The galaxy should be littered with kryptonian refugees.

The musical will only be occupying the flash episode from what I've read. It's going to be like the big crossover earlier where the supergirl component will be like 1 min of setup at the end of the episode.

Except the show didn't really approach good until they moved to Metropolis, added Green Arrow to the main cast and basically became the Justice League show, with Clark and Lois as reporters. Say Seasons 7-10; with maybe seasons 5 & 6 demonstrating a gradual improvement. The first 3 seasons were mediocre, Season 4 in my opinion was dreadful, absolutely the low point of the show.

We the audience knew, but it wasn't public knowledge in the show because I'm assuming their constitution is like the real one, and only natural born citizens are eligible for the presidency.

Do we know for certain she wasn't born in the US? I can't remember what was revealed about her backstory; other than the fact that she was at University with Cat Grant. I feel like if they end up making it about her not being a natural born citizen it will be a bit of a cop out. Having her be a validly elected President who happens to not be human would be much more interesting.

They changed the boots, I dig that. I hope that goes for the red and blue suit as well.


But don't be silly, Cavill's suit is amazing and the cape is a work of art.




Edit: Gustin and Amell are wearing the same boots.

I think Cavill could have been a decent superman if he'd had the opportunity to be in a competently made movie. As things stand though I'm kinda glad both he and Affleck seem to be done with the DCEU. Affleck batman was far worse than Cavill Superman IMO. Tiny Clark is much better though and I wish he'd move to the big screen or at least show up more in the arrowverse.

What's the deal with the Black suit?

Yea I don't like the stuff with Brainy and Mia. His whole "But i cannot not be at 100%" is not a good excuse, because you shouldn't be smothering your partner, even if you think its an expression of love.

If he always has to be at 100% then he should learn from Data and just devote the appropriate 3% to his relationship and divert the rest of his processing power to other tasks.

The politics in Black Lightning feel organic. In Supergirl it feels like a gimmick, like the writers are saying look at me, look at me. It's disruptive to the show. Plot and dialogue is chosen in order to tick a box for an issue instead of because it makes sense for the story.

Yeah this first batch of episodes has clearly been a "Crisis Holding Pattern" thing. Flash is doing it too this year and doing it much better though. Batwoman's response to Crisis has been to just ignore it so far and Arrow has been 100% Crisis focused so the crossover being effectively it's final run of episodes works super good so far. Legends is starting its year with Crisis, so it doesn't have to worry about that. And from the look of the latest batch of previews, Black Lightning is just gonna get t-boned by Crisis out of nowhere.

Batwoman couldn't deal with a chubby middle aged dude with an axe, none of the real heroes are going to waste time getting her involved with the crisis until they have to.

It's a good move. Babies are effectively living props, kinda like noisy poo poo producing plants. These kids are the right age to carry their own plotlines, and have interesting storylines around parenting teens, growing up, etc. Presumably they both have powers to some degree as well so we can explore that.
