I'm still scratching my head about why, with the low numbers of the first season, ABC didn't rush to Netflix as soon as they renewed it to make a deal so that more eyeballs would see the first season over the hiatus on that platform and thus be lined up to watch the second when it aired.
That was my theory too, and that he was the one who shot [SPOILER] in the end tag scene.
I'm 90% certain it was Peggy's not-actually-dead brother Michael and that the redacted "M. Carter" files were actually about him.
I did! And she loved it; it was the awesome cherry on top of an already fun filled Mother's Day. She's the least nerdy person in my immediate family, but considering the other members are my normally mild-mannered British dad who turned into an excited little kid when he won a ticket to an Avengers signing at Comic…
That was my single complaint. Not only did it make it confusing, it actually made me dizzy and left me with a headache the rest of the day, motivating me warn all my friends not to sit too close when they went. And I'm not even prone to motion sickness; the people who went with me were and had to close their eyes…
I'm going to say the Arrow Cave. It's supposed to be a secret lair, with emphasis on SECRET, but Curtis just wandered into the campaign headquarters, found the elevator control panel with no effort, and it didn't even require a code or handprint scanner to access! I love these shows and let a lot slide as a result,…
That caused me to idly wonder if the Flash existed in Fringe's alternate universe and if he was called the Flash or something else, since their version of Batman was apparently called Mantis, and if I remember correctly their "Green" heroes (Arrow and Lantern) were "Red" instead. I miss Fringe.
It drives me crazy how many characters are being "saved" for the films, especially since at least some are still pretty early in the speculative stage. Come on, DC/WB! You made TV and film separate universes! Stop hogging so many great characters!
But yes, really hoping TV gets Mirror Master.
I'm hoping Bart will show up sometime in the show's future. My twin and I actually theorized very early in season one that "Wells" was a dark version of Impulse since he seemed to be protective of Barry, in an at-any-cost sort of way. It soon became obvious we were way off the mark off course, but we're still hoping…
I've been assuming that most metahumans are just average people who aren't bad and therefore don't try to use their abilities to kill or steal, but also aren't inclined towards heroics and the associated risks. They just try to live normal, under the radar lives, hoping the government won't show up and try to dissect…
That was when Fringe went from being a show I casually watched to a must-watch show, because it was the first time I'd seen an alternate universe become an integral part of a show instead of a brief gimmick, and it really made for some cool and unique storytelling. I too was hoping Flash would be inspired by that (and…
Even though I'm pretty much a backstage gal and content with that, I have often wished I was a better actress just so I could someday play Beatrice (and do the part justice).
Just wanted to say this made me grin, so thank you!
Absolutely! Pushing Daisies is another great example, because as long as a beloved show has some semblance of a satisfying ending, I'd infinitely prefer it to end on a high note after, as you say, a "short, glorious run," than to have it wear out its welcome, which happens far too often.
That's absolutely true for some shows. One of my favorite shows happens to be another Fox one hit wonder - Wonderfalls. My twin and I love that show to death and still quote it to each other all the time, but we've also discussed that we're okay with it only being one season. It ended so neatly and well, and if it had…
Between the rapid growing up, superpowers, and creepy eye color, I was totally getting Orici vibes from her (but maybe that's just because I've been hit with a recent heavy nostalgia wave for Stargate: SG-1).
I might've grimly (no pun intended, honestly) stuck with my viewing of this movie all the way to the end, but the moment it was revealed that they'd made The Thing's "It's clobberin' time!" catchphrase originate as the catchphrase Ben's physically abusive older brother used while bullying him, I was pretty much done…
I've said it before, but my fervent hope is that Marvel and Sony's collaboration on Spider-Man will be so successful that the executives at Fox, the recent sting of this failure fresh in their memories, will be falling over themselves to ink a similar deal for the future of the Fantastic 4. And I will stubbornly hold…
Wow, I kinda love that idea! Television would seem to be the perfect format to develop everything properly the more I think about it..
