I too would probably jump AoS ahead of all the Netflix shows. It’s sort of an unfair comparison to put AoS’ 130 eps against, say, Luke Cage’s 24. Take all the Hell’s Kitchen shows together and put them against AoS and THEN we can have a proper argument.

Welp, they have a year or more to work-shop the character. Ed seemed to be partly on the autism spectrum, partly doing a Bobcat Goldthwaite impression (which might be the crazy sauce that could do the trick) and partly could be chalked up to Spike’s POV tripping on liquor and pain.

I just did eps 5 & 6. All the actors are trying to make their characters come to life. All are successful to one degree or another. Jet is basically strait-up Jet. Faye is more comedic. Funny eye-acting. Vicious is the one lacking so far, he’s kinda one-note. Seems like he was in the cartoon too. He certainly comes off

One from each Gen X decade (roughly)

Killer Bruce Broughton soundtrack too.

I just did eps 2, 3, & 4.

See, what I didn't do was run out and rebinge the whole anime series in the run-up to this - therein lies the road to anal gripe-a-tude. The show is way better if the anime is somewhere in your subconscious and not in recent memory. 

I wouldn’t put it past this show to open up a scene, coming back from commercial break, where we start on Ava and Sara in bed - clearly post love-making - and pan right to reveal (sharing the bed) Gary, Gideon, Zari, Nate ...

Thanks for clearing up Nipplegate.

Does this mean he had 4 nipples originally? I mean, if you have a choice with your human-suit accessories, the more the merrier.

Good catch. Could be Daredevil too. ‘Frickin top ten list of whose CGI ghost that could be. Could be Cartoon Miles Morales!

Chester seems emotionally stuck at age 13.

Check out season one of The Morning Show. Carell Morning Show blanks Carell Space Force and then some.

“Crisis on Earth-X” is still the gold standard.

It would be justified if ‘Brina has a one-line tossed off excuse as to how she’s back from being dead - as she was at the downer ending/blown cliffhanger of her own series.

Meet the new cast of Willow has a couple solid laffs.

This could also be part of the “Fuck, we can’t work the crew 16 hours a day anymore - (sigh) - Ok... let’s rework the fucking schedule and ad in a few weeks of reshoots. Work ‘em 12 hours a day for a year or two until everybody forgets we agreed to this.” situation.

I was surprised (so far) too that Doom Patrol didn’t get a “Finale” mention. I think they got a “pre-air” note this season.

I just watched Doom Patrol’s season 3 Finale. So, that’s on tonight too. Gomez was good. This, Sabrina, and The Flight Attendant makes her kind of a WB player now. Each role improved a little, I think. Mdm Rouge and Rita’s drunk scene earlier in the season was a standout.

Caity shown bright in this latest episode too. In close-up scenes my heart again went pitter-pat.
