I think Frankie's a great character but I find a lot of her behavior insufferable.

Have not watched any of S3 yet but I've got a question for the folks here: does anyone else enjoy this show but not find it all that funny? I binged two seasons of this show a few months ago and quite honestly did not laugh out loud once. I love the premise, the cast is top-notch, and I love the stories…
I'm in the third camp: I think they're both terrible. But that's what makes the show so entertaining and interesting to me.
I think it's in line with what the show is. LOVE likes to deconstruct
what we assume about characters. I mean the show pretty much inverts the nice guy/reckless girl clichés with Gus and Mickey, it makes sense that it's examining what kind of guy Randy really might be too. Lovable losers are only lovable in truly…
I think the best part of that whole thing was that by straight up revealing that they were all replaced my LMDs, they've sidestepped the whole tired "who's actually a cylon?" thing that would have been so easy to do. I like that after the May and Radcliffe LMD reveals, the show isn't trying to milk the uncertainty…
What I loved most about it was that, for the most part, the song wasn't being played for laughs. Pretty much all of the songs in this show undercut themselves with jokey lyrics. Absolutely nothing wrong with that; it's a comedy, after all. But sometimes I want a musical on TV that plays it straight.
I so badly want to read Nick's book. Every other character is completely selling me on how good it is.
I think a lot of people who make the argument about Hamilton only being accessible by the rich/elite are ignoring the fact that the original cast recording, which contains nearly all of the show, is readily available on streaming services like Spotify and Amazon Music. I understand that theater is meant to be seen…
I found Schmidt's enthusiasm about the Birthdays Express at the airport to be one of the most endearing moments of the episode.
You might be interested in reading "The Last Family of Krypton," a really interesting Elseworlds story DC published a couple of years ago. In it, Jor-El makes a rocket that's big enough for Kal, Lara, and himself to escape Krypton, and the three of them all land on Earth. It's quite interesting how they all adapt.
There's always been weirdness at Warner with regards to who can use what characters. The old Justice League Unlimited animated series famously suffered from the "Bat-embargo;" no Batman-related characters were allowed to be used because the other DC animated series "The Batman" was airing at the time.
Do you really think she doesn't know? I feel like she knows but she's playing along at this point.
Yep.
Are you talking about all the other stuff he wrote? Ultimatum and all of his weird Marvel stuff? I'm not ignorant of the guy's faults and his work that's actually bad. I'm just saying that you can't say that something wasn't Jeph Loeb's idea because it was good, because the guy DOES have good ideas.

You know I see a lot of people say this, and I'm not going to disagree, but I personally had a lot of problems with LoT outside of the Hawk storyline, specifically all of the insanity with Rip and the Time Masters. Rip just didn't feel like the Rip I knew from the comics, and the show didn't have any self-consistency…
Come on. They're not pushing anything. It's just homage. The Superman in this TV show isn't the Superman from the 1978 movie.
Probably not canonical, just a reference.
Yep! Henry Clover Jr., aka Gotham!

I thought it was a nice bit of comedy.
