I'm not gonna complain about any product placement less obtrusive than Chuck's Subway obsession. EDIT: Y'know what? In a world where commercial breaks are becoming increasingly irrelevant, I'm okay with them switching entirely to in-show product placement. Ditch all ads. A three second shot of a Maybeline product versus a thirty to forty-five second ad? No contest. Just don't be as bad about it as Chuck. Or Hawaii 5-0.

Jamesman posted:Never watched that show, but I read about it and admittedly forgot about it. Yeah, this is definitely worse. This borders on parody. That's some Wayne's World level poo poo. It almost (but definitely doesn't) makes me want to watch the show. Doesn't make me want Subway, though.

I hope the show goes as balls-to-the-wall crazy as the comics. But, like, so gradually that, by season seven, we're not even phased that the main plot involves Jon Bernthal's Frank Castle fighting off the Predator while Sabrina desperately tries to undo her soul-switching spell that's got everyone in the wrong bodies.

Narcissus1916 posted:Hermione also referred to Veronica as "mija" an episode or two ago. She's done so two or three times. It's more obvious when you binge.

esperterra posted:Netflix is pretty good about CW in general in other countries. The 100 has the same deal here in Canadia. And yet we can't get Arrow, Flash, or Legends of Tomorrow, since they air on CTV. Supergirl we get, though. And now iZombie. I'd say it's a mixed bag.

bunnyofdoom posted:That poo poo is on crave tho along with agents of shield. I'm not going to encourage the cable companies and their ridiculous notion that they should all have their own streaming services. I watch what I can on the networks' websites the day after broadcast, then watch what's on Netflix. Anything that isn't covered by those two venues gets streamed guilt-free.

esperterra posted:But yeah, this version certainly works best at selling her and Betty as best friends, tho it felt like they did a time jump between episodes one and two where V was suddenly hella close with the core gang. I don't feel that way at all. It seems to me there are a lot of scenes of Veronica basically forcefully interjecting herself into everyone else's business. She's a member of the core gang through force of will.

Snooze Cruise posted:The Blossoms are like a Gothic verison of the family from Dallas if they had syrup instead of oil. The Blossoms remind me of a V. C. Andrews novel. Like, you know those twins are gonna end up locked away somewhere if Ma and Pa Syrup-Baron get their way.

Did you see the loving student lounge in that school? Their paper probably has a bigger operating budget than most real life high schools' actual budget.

Lord Krangdar posted:One thing I really like about this show is that even though it obviously takes place in a campy, over-the-top reality the characters' actions and especially their reactions are often unusually restrained for a teen soap. I think it's just that they're consistent. Unlike the other CW comic book shows like Flash and Arrow, where how smart, secretive, emotional, or murderous anyone is at any given moment are all functions of the plot rather than their characters.

DivisionPost posted:Man, a shittier show would've swerved at the last minute and pinned the murder on Polly for a cheap "DID I JUST BLOW YOUR MIND" pop. I love that the Blossoms were on the board as potential suspects fairly early on and the show followed through on it. I was afraid they'd go the "Yeah, Mustang, that guy we totally showed you one time is the real murderer!!!" route and wuss out of having anyone actually important get the rap. Glad they didn't.

I don't know if it'll work with anything else, but I know that when I stream from the CTV app to my Chromecast, it skips the ads.
