I doubt 'are you interested in picking up this show? the ratings are terrible but merc really likes it.' would go over particularly well.

The Ultra Humanite. Not pleasantly surprised, as he's been a ridiculous villain since the 1930s, but surprised.

wrong? taken in by misdirection?

Re: Stargirl [Action, Adventure, Crime]

esp 11 was another good eps

▼Spoiler

Jordans "reformed" return was truly vomit inducing, very well acted, made my skin crawl. I had to review the end of eps 10 to confirn the lies  he told about how the crocks died. I thnk in the end Cameron will turn against  his father,   when he sees him as the lying scheming madman that he is. But Starman will killl him

Re: Stargirl [Action, Adventure, Crime]

I caught up on this series recently and was soooo sure the Ultra-Humanite had been in Starman's body while Sylverster's mind was in the giant gorilla, for so long that I felt silly when that didn't seem the case after Ep 11... still I have been loving everything going on and for a YA series, once again, it went so dark with the

Re: Stargirl [Action, Adventure, Crime]

I'm surprised you thought anything like that.

▼Spoiler

One problem I've had with this season is that it's taking the form of a whodunit but without really giving any hints. For a while there it was dropping a new villain in every week with no clues whatsoever. I guess Sylvester's behavior would be a clue in a show on any other network but I'm so used to every character acting like that in other CW shows that it seemed completely normal. And without knowing the clue that let Courtney figure it out until after the plot had been revealed, none of the things he reframed seemed like particularly devious advice either.
Of course since the other problem I have with the season is I don't give a rat's ass, I'd not given it too much thought. I could have easily missed clues even if they were spelled out.

100% Satisfied... Not happy it's over, mind you... But the ending was pretty darn perfect [for what it was]!

Meh. Bonus points for Future Islands though.

▼Spoiler

Surprised they mentioned Damage as a future member, especially as the most recent comics Damage had nothing to do with the JSA. Then again that version was terrible. Probably just decided to throw the name in there since Atom Smasher was in Black Adam.

So it is all over now. shame.  3 Seasons was about right though

▼Spoiler

I just watched it. And the last scene in the JSA museum where Shade is doing the talk and the Flash breaks in - is the call up again of the JSA just an empty gesture for us to fill in or can we expect more? I am glad though that Icecycle finally got evaporated. I understand two eps 13 were shot it would be interestng to see the continuity one?

▼Spoiler

regarding Green Lantern - now it seems to have been a wasted few eps - but made more sense had the series been renewed?

Were it not for the time jump I'd have assumed they were going to show up in the last Flash season. Not sure how they'd age some of them though. Maybe a mix of new actors and makeup.

But @merc given you're the one who listens to podcasts about this show I'd expect you to be the one with the answers to your first spoiler's questions big_smile

I havent listened to the semi official podcast yet - this will also have Geoff Johns talking about the show, so should be interesting. I only l watched the eps a few hours ago.
