I must say, I think a little bit of wee came out when the Smallville theme tune played biggrin

The Elseworlds ones actually gave an idea that they know and appreciate the material in all its forms.

The next bit (as trailed at the end of Part 3) might be good too, at least it's a proper major story if done properly.

The LoT quick dismissal of not being in the crossover was quite well done too.

Just watched that bit, did make me giggle.

That episode is brilliant fun though, especially the Puppets of Tomorrow hehe

Just watched the follow up episode to Elseworlds... I think I'm done with Arrow, going to try the next Flash but that's not looking good either.


Shame really, arrow was always my favourite but they've dragged too hard on certain elements now and it just feels like it's repeating itself.

Quite liking Flash at the moment. Cicarda seems unable to deal with Frost and Nora is playing with Fire

I felt the same about Arrow and even Flash but must say I don't miss not watching them anymore.
Found other good shows to watch and apart from this thread coming up on my feed, i've not even thought about these shows

See I think he is a terrible actor. Couldn't act his way out of a paper bag. And that goes all the way back to American Pie.

Just a heads up, Arrow confirmed to be ending after season 8.

Anyone watching the latest series?

I've not bothered yet, will wait until they're all finished, then torrent the whole damn lot.

Looking forward to the crossover event, apparently there will be multiple Supermen including Brandon Routh and Tom Welling from Smallville.

Must admit the fanboy in me in squeaking a bit at that! Would be ace to have Dean Cain in there as well hehe

TBH I have given up on it, Arrow and Legends. They had their mid-season break and I just CBA to go back, which is a shame.

Still watching The Flash, I am a few seasons behind on Arrow, up to date with Legends as well. This seasons cross over is supposed to be pretty epic also includes Black Lightning apparently as well, which I have seen most of season 1... I think!

IMO Arrow went downhill when it got a bit lighter, shortly after the Ra's al Ghul stuff wrapped up at the end of Season 3, think i made it to the end of Season 4, maybe 5. Preferred it when it was all a bit dark! It works on The Flash, BA has always been a bit of campish happy hope type of hero. So unless it has got darker again I will struggle. But I will binge the whole lot once Season 8 is wrapped up, I have some work away from home coming up!

It's a while since I watched any of these things but just catching up with Batwoman - it's harder edged than the cartoony stuff in the others.

Seems promising but then so was Arrow at the beginning...

It has been kind of ok but getting a bit bored with it, hopefully the next new one which starts in a couple of days will be better

Looks like Batwoman will probably get binned as the main lead, Ruby Rose, just quit

Likely because they wouldn't up her pay. She already absolutely rinsed them for millions of dollars after a stunt went wrong and nearly paralysed her, then rumour has it she went into the negotiations asking double her S1 salary, believing she was untouchable given S2 had already been renewed.

I guess it was a no then... hehe

Probably. I was on IMDb last night and looked at this, 3.5 is a terrible score. amongst the acting and writing, it was also slammed for its blatant, in your face, box ticking wokeness.
