Doesn’t look low budget at all? And the effects fit that Scott Pilgrim aesthetic.

I noticed that Alex was pouring 2 glasses of wine before Kelly arrived home, and she seemed surprised by her arriving at that moment, like “Oh, you’re home.”  So why was she pouring a glass of wine for Kelly then?  I understand that they wanted the two of them to be drinking wine on the couch while talking, but this…

I feel sort of the same way. The beginning of the show had so much promise and the ending is truly engaging; and, as you mentioned, Return of the Joker is some of the best DCAU there is. That said big chunks of the middle part of the series get really tedious and repetitive. Way too much of the show is set in high…

That’s true. Arrow petered out after Season 2, to be honest. Though perhaps that’s not quite true. Seasons 3 and 4 were a different breed of terrible than the exhaustion and burnout of 6 and 7.

I think the biggest mistake they made was mistaking lightheartedness for complete silliness. Season 7 was tons of fun, though.

Caity Lotz is so funny, along with being the best in the action scenes, her character having the most dramatic/ tragic backstory, and her relationship being the best one in the ArrowVerse. A lot of elements make the show so great, but none of it works without her.

He definitely should shave his beard and keep the mustache, young Gwyn looked HOT

Behrad still has his totem, so the effects aren’t gone.

I enjoyed Constantine as a character and Ryan’s performance, but I can’t deny that Legends is stronger when it’s about time travel rather than magic. It was like Constantine had a gravitational pull on the stories and they couldn’t escape becoming more about him. I’m glad they found a way to keep Ryan while balancing…

Thanks Jarrod for your reviews, you’ve been amazing! Wishing you the best for whatever comes next (these last 2 weeks have been difficult for being on AV Club). Once a legend, always a legend!

I think seasons 5 and 6 were also weaker than 2-4. It was still generally fun and zany, but I would say the writing overall just wasn’t as strong, regardless of who was on the team.

I know I’m in the minority , but there was a reason I started being less and less interested in the show after Season 4 , and that’s because it stopped being that really cool , funny show about weird C list DC characters , and just ended up losing most of its members  and just became (I cant believe I’m saying this )…

A lesser show would have had a Nate/Zari/Zari love triangle, whichever way that swings.

I’m going to say it. I didn’t like Nate. In and of himself he was fine, but every time they put him next to a woman he took over her storyline. When they put him with Amaya, her storyline of having to return to the past became his storyline of how sad he was about it. When they put him with Zari 1.0, her storyline…

It is kind of funny that Nate was initially supposed to be BFFs with Behrad but eventually his chemistry with Tala Ashe won out & his relationship with Zari 2.0 became the much more significant one

I liked King’s run, but I also agree that War of Jokes and Riddles wasn’t great. I got the same feeling from it that I get from a lot of the Brian Michael Bendis stories: Someone had a great set-up for a story but failed to sketch in enough plot details to make it seem real, and despite a number of good moments it…

Astra for President!

If the Legends are too legit to quit, then Gary is too annoying to die. Can’t aliens like him and Kayla survive being ejected into the temporal zone?

Just a year ago, I would have said that I was okay with Legends ending. But damn, this season has been the best in years and I just wish I could spend a little more time with those groovy guys.

Well none of the CW shows have been officially renewed yet, so I am still hoping for the best
