! I didn't get that part for some reason until sum1 mentioned it and thne i was like OMG.
! It even had her voice actor playing the role from the games if i'm not mistaken
Just saw last week's episode. I'm so glad that Isabel didn't just die like that. And now no power in the verse can stop her.
Just finished yesterday's episode, spoilers for those who haven't seen it yet!
! Moira's death was a surprise! I also imagine that Oliver's child will come into play in the finale, or end of this season at least. Perhaps that's who Slade meant when he said "One more must die" ? Anyway it was a pretty great episode, lots of good moments. Sad to see Sarah go, but I guess she'll be back for the end with the League of Assassins.

! Definitely a surprise. Although I'd have been happier if Laurel had died, since I think her character does nothing for the show except adding unnecessary family drama, which are the worst moments on the show. I'm not sure why they have so many of them, kind of Gossip Girl style or whatever…
! Ollie's kid must be like 6 now? Don't think he'll be very important, but definitely a fture plot point. Sarah's leaving was also really sudden and seemed forced. But the finale is building up to be really strong.
! Did everybody see "Ravenger" in the promo for next week?"

! Yeah Laurel is kinda unnecessary right now, she may have been a better character to kill off… Eh we'll see how her character develops now she knows Olliver is The Arrow. Really looking forward to see how they fix all this in the finale.

! Did everybody see "Ravenger" in the promo for next week?"
! You mean Ravager ? Yes I did, I assume it's Isabel doped up on Mirakuru, we'll see how all that turns out…
Anyone else sick of Roy, Sara? Those two really crowd the "secret basement".
! I'm guessing that Sarah will return with the League of Assasins. Hopefully we'll get our Ra's Al Ghul appearance and I'm assuming they'll play the largest part in stopping Slade's army. If the League doesn't come, then Merlyn will most likely play a role in stopping them. Or hopefully both.
! I'm pretty sure they stated that "Team Arrow" will not be as cramped as it has been the last few episodes. If the League stuff does happen, I could imagine Sarah going back with them. They still have their whole honor code and I'm sure taking down a Mirikuru army warrants Sarah returning with them. And depending on what happens with Roy he could end up cured of the Mirikuru, live with it and cope, or some inbetween. But I hope we do continue to see Roy as part of the team. I love his training scenes.

I hope Roy gets cured, I loved his training scenes
Tah-Dah! New trailer for Gotham has arrived! Extended trailer even!

Yes… I'm very excited for this. Looks better than Arrows... And I bet it will be better than Flash.

It really looks better.^^ Better actors, possibly bigger budget and it's not a CW show.^^ Although I have to say I somewhat liked arrow, and was a huge supernatural fan till I fell out of it, need to start watching it again. For gotham I hope the younger actors who play bruce wayne, catwoman etc do a good job and are not annoying.

oh. It's not the same channel?
Yeah I like Arrows too and still watch it. But they really need to kill off some characters if they haven't already.
For gotham I'm very happy with riddler and penguin atm.
Always wanted them for dark knight rises.
I hkpe that will 1 dya lead to an actual Batman TV series - which would no doubt be a big hit, and would have tons of material to work from….. Here's hoping...
I feel like in that episode where Bruce Wayne is shown, the score will take a slightly special turn, the camera will be on him for a while, and then end of scene - or break. I bloody hate those. I hate it when a tv-show or movie does that. It's the creaters telling me that something is special, instead of just introducing a character or a moment and letting the viewer decide if it's special. Smallville did that all the time.
"I am Louis Lane! Ta-dam!
And people unfamiliar with the comics or movies be like, "Well what's so special about you that you get fancy intro music?"
Skyfall did that at the end, where Montgovery or whatever declared that he is the new M. They had a moment.
That Gotham trailer looks fantastic
The only thing that annoyed me about the trailer was: do they seriously need to put a young Poison Ivy in this? Like, a kid Poison Ivy? Poison Ivy's whole shtick is being a seductress, and it's kinda hard to be a seductress when you're ten.

Not if you seduce…..other 10 year olds lol

Agreed. I wonder why they decided to go with her. Batman has a very rich Rogue's gallery that could be better, although Poison Ivy is the most prominent female one(I think).
They should use Zsaasz(sp?).
Its a shame this isn't on CW, then we could have had an Arrow/Flash/Gotham crossover, although the timelines wouldn't make sense but they've name dropping Bludhaven recently so there is hope for Nightwing.

If they wanted a female villain in the mix, it probably wasn't real easy to find a popular one with schticks that work aside from Catwoman.
The only other options they had (aside from making a new one) are:
Harley Quinn
Talia al Ghul
The second Ventriloquist
Sofia Falcone
Two of which aren't really popular/known and Talia being kinda weird to pull off. I have no idea what they would do with Harley though.
I really want/expect them to utilize Black Mask (Sionis) and Hush since both have ties to Bruce's childhood (I think). Though, the most interesting additions fir ne would be Strange, the Red Hood(s) (pre-joker), and maybe the Scarecrow. shrug
It's Zsasz btw.

Sofia Falcone would be a wonderful alternative to poison Ivy. They could show that Harley was always crazy(I think it can be described as Sociopathic) from the start, she just hid it very well.
Agreed on Scarecrow and Black Mask, they make the most sense for a show centred around cops. I'm not really excited for the riddler but I can somehow see them making him a police consultant or something.
Can I bitch about the Gotham Trailer here? Somehow everyone thinks it's going to be good. I really don't see how it can be, as it's literally just a crime drama, continuously going to drop serious hints at things to come without showing any. I mean, probably. I don't know that yet, it's just very likely to be the case, and it's going to suck big hairy balls.

Hmmm I see your point.
Yeah none of the "big names" will be seriously taken down. Since they need to be there for Batman in 10 or so years.
And they're not going to have batman in TV… probably.
Meh, I'll still check it out when it comes around but yeah. Hopefully they find a way around that.

Well, SHIELD suffers from the same problems really. They have a good cast, but they keep dropping names without anything happening on screen. And those allusions get annoying after a while. But SHIELD has now actually become awesome, because it ties into the larger universe and lately dealt directly with Cap 2 repercussions… And it's SUPPOSED to be the way it is, actually related to the Marvel universe - and the story fits into it. Gotham won't have that, and it's going to suffer from it. Badly.
As long as Gotham remembers it's supposed to be about Gordon first and that it's a crime drama more than a name-dropper, then it should be fine.

Before she's a seductress, she's a plant activist, though.
She doesn't have to be Poison Ivy yet. She can be Pamela. We can learn where her love for plants stems (heh heh) from, and understand why her plant activism reaches such a ridiculous point.
Only somewhat disappointing thing about this show is that we won't have Joker, thus we won't have Harley, and thus we won't have lesbian adventures with Harley and Ivy. ;_;
Can we have a TV show about that instead? Those two are my OTP.
I kinda think some of the characters like ivy will only have a brief cameo and never appear again.
Thus the obvious problem the show is going to have. And I'm sorry, but I can't see it being better than Arrow - which is great - and the trailer looks SO much worse than it already, imo.
Arrow is not all that great and it wouldn't take gotham much to be better.
The Flash, iZombie and Constantine have been ordered to series. Might be time for a DC TV thread. Might be a more positive affair than the movie thread too.

damn, Constantine series? Now that sounds great.

We could use the Arrow thread for the DC TV shows after renaming it.
A DC TV thread? Not a bad idea.
One more episode of Arrows and S2 is over.
! Did Thea really shoot Malcolm. WTF.
I know Malcolm's not a good guy but geez, and I was actually not minding Thea's character nowadays, but lol.
The women in this series are really really annoying. Especially the Lance sisters. I cringe everytime I see either of them and when they share a same scene I close my eyes and ears.
Anyways, DC TV thread is awesome~

! I don't think she'll have shot him,it's just a cliffhanger, I assume she shot the mirakuru guy who might have woken up/another one showed up
Yeaaah Sara is really getting on my nerves now, Laurel is ok for the moment, definitely better than earlier this season.

You best be excluding Felicity from this statement.

felicity is on a whole different level.
She shall not be mentioned in the same sentence as the others.
Up to recently I kind of liked isabel too but
! her whole "I was hurt because of your pops waah waah" thing was a real put off

I think laurel did improve a bit. But mostly thanks to detective lance himself.
! oh I think you might be right about thea there.
I mean Constantine would do better on HBO, as would a lot of shows , but I think NBC might be the best place for Constantine to be. Hannibal has been pushing the boundaries on creepiness/grossness. If they allow that freedom for Constantine I think it can be great.
Last episode before the finale. Excellent season - can't wait for the
! Ollie vs Deathstroke showdown. Sum1 is supposedly gonna die, just hope it ain't Sara, cuz i like her as the Canary, and we need to see more of her past

Well anything is great when it is by HBO in my opinion.
But I hope Constantine to be more commercial.

Doesn't look as awesome/stylish as I hoped but I'll judge the series after watching the pilot.
Keeeewwwwwlllll.
I really want it to do well, but I can see this getting cancelled after 1 to 2 seasons.
edit- Didn't realize we were merging everything, or that hellblazer was even DC(haven't read the thing in years)
This goes in the DC TV Series thread.
Wasn't sure if this was posted or where to post it but…last week Efrem Zimbalist Jr pasted away at 95.
Most of you would know him as Alfred from Batman TAS.
We have our first tiny "promo" trailer for The Flash:
It looks . . . . cute? I'm still not sure if I like the costume or not.
