Comic Television Discussion – Week beginning 11th November 2018

Arrow, Black Lightning, Legends of Tomorrow, Riverdale, Superman/Smallville, The Gifted, Titans, TV Series 6 Comments

The weeks seem to be flooding faster than it is possible to keep up with all of these shows.  Which of these do you Bureaucrats watch?  Did you watch Supergirl fight a suped up version of that thing from Star Trek 2?  Did you watch Gene Simmons guest star on Arrow?  Did you watch a bunch of middle age adults try to pretend to be kids on either Riverdale or Legends?  Did you enjoy the family issues of the Flash family?  How about Black Lightning working with his daughter, or Titan’s attempt to visit as many of their DC properties as possible?  Do you come here to chat about Gifted while waiting for the lazy reviewer to watch and post the detailed review?

Comic Television Discussion – Week beginning 4th November 2018

Arrow, Black Lightning, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Legends of Tomorrow, Riverdale, Superman/Smallville, The Flash, The Gifted, Titans, TV Series 4 Comments

While The Flash and Black Lightning take a week off to read Blaine’s review of Daredevil, Supergirl introduces Manchester Black in a way that makes it clear that you should know who that is, presumable from some comics.  Arrow continues chasing last seasons big bad, while the Legends of tomorrow visit the British punk scene, where Constantine should feel at home, but is instead entirely underused.  The Titans start working as a team.  In the X side of things, we get the Stepford Cuckoos Frost Triplets backstory.  Riverdale way back into the old people’s ancient past (the 90s) to see the games they played.

Comic Television Discussion – Week beginning 28th October 2018

Arrow, Black Lightning, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Legends of Tomorrow, Riverdale, Superman/Smallville, The Flash, The Gifted, Titans 2 Comments

Halloween has happened, which was why I was delayed with this post, but it doesn’t seem to have affected the comic based television as much as you would expect, except that Sabrina was released.  Supergirl teases her cousin, Arrow keeps working without Arrow, the Legends lean into the magical side of things, The Flash explores what it means to be meta, Black Lightning’s situation continues to degrade, the Titans visit even more DC properties, while the Gifted introduce romances.  Riverdale takes the week off to Enjoy catching up on Sabrina’s new show.

Comic Television Discussion – Week beginning 21th October 2018

Arrow, Comics, Legends of Tomorrow, Superman/Smallville, The Flash, TV Series

We are entering a golden age of comics on TV, maybe not due to quality, but definitely due to quantity.  Supergirl gets a new villain of the week, Arrow continues his Heroes in Prison story, Constantine joins the Legends (Yeah!!), The Flash threatens to kill a favorite character, Black Lightning lets his daughters do the heroing, and Titans gives us some backstory.  The Gifted took the week off (presumably because they’re behind on watching Daredevil, too,) and Riverdale trends towards more Halloween horror in order to make its sister show, The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, feel welcome when it drops on the 26th.

Comic Television Discussion – Week beginning April 15th

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Arrow, Legends of Tomorrow, Superman/Smallville, The Flash, TV Series

On the CW, we are Dropping Content as the seasons come to a close, so I have revamped these posts to include some more comic television!  I am not going to say I got everything based on a comic, but I added the ones I watch.  If there’s another comic show you like, please comment and I’ll include it.  I’ll throw any streaming series up as they show up.

For our Debut Catalog, Lucifer thinks he is going on nocturnal missions, Supergirl returns bringing Laurie Metcalf with her.  The Flash continues fighting against intelligence, Black Lightning ends his first season with a showdown of black vs. white, Supergranad is still trapped in a terrorist cell, and Arrow has expanding businesses.

From the House of Ideas, Legion is still crazy (and that description probably won’t change) and the Agents take a trip to Rome to stop Malficent’s daughter from breaking the world.  In Riverdale, the “teens” get prepare to put on their bloody musical.

DC Television Week 20 Discussion

Arrow, Legends of Tomorrow, Superman/Smallville, The Flash

This week, the disasters, climaxes, and seasons reach their peak before they Don’t Continue for the summer.  We see the Flash finally return as our Legends wrap up their season, Black Lightning gives us the penultimate episode for its inaugural season.  On Legends, we see everything you’d predict from a season finale.  Flash shows us how different Barry and Ralph are.  Black Lightning sets up our Tobias fight.  Krypton has Seg consider joining terrorists.  Arrow shows us just how much Oliver is screwing up.

DC Television Week 19 Discussion

Arrow, Legends of Tomorrow, Lord of the Rings, Superman/Smallville, The Flash, TV Series

This week is a week off for half of the Arrowverse, but special guest Denethor Crashes the Legend’s episode as John Noble appears and pretends to be the voice of the character he voices.  I think the Legends are turning “meta” into a weapon.  Black Lightning reaches the painful point of his allegory.  Supergrandpa begins his new job.  Meanwhile, Arrow showcases dating woes.

DC Television Week 18 Discussion

Arrow, Legends of Tomorrow, Superman/Smallville, The Flash, TV Series

I got a bit distracted this week with work, so please excuse any delayed conversation that I have caused.   On Lucifer, Maze goes bad.  Well, Maze goes back to being evil… er?  The Legends find out Ava’s secret origin.  Black Lightning works with the children more, Arrow is not working with the Avenger’s villain, but some new Deadly Contractors.  On Krypton, Supergrandpa adjust to his new life as an orphan.

DC Television Week 17 Discussion

Arrow, Legends of Tomorrow, Superman/Smallville, The Flash, TV Series

Like the universe we inhabit, the DC television universe expands beyond its Defined Constraints.  Instead of just the CW, we are now branched out to Syfy and to CW Seed.  While a decent chunk of our heroes enjoy their vacation, Lucifer takes a back seat to C̵l̵a̵r̵k̵ ̵K̵e̵n̵t̵ Pierce, Legends has the best pun of a show title yet, while Black Lightning enjoys some quality time with the family.  Out in deep space, Krypton begins to end, and we get a heaping helping of John Constantine.

DC Television Week 16 Discussion

Arrow, Legends of Tomorrow, Superman/Smallville, The Flash

The Date Convention I have been using isn’t that accurate as it was when there only four shows and were starting at the same time.  This week, we get to see Lucifer act as a groupie for a superstar, The Legends visit one of the first big superstars, The Flash swaps out with Iris so she can be super, Black Lightning deals with his family and their super powers, and we get a preview of the new super show Krypton.  (Arrow and Supergirl are still taking a break from being super.)
