SDCC '16: The CW's DCTV Surprises Include BATWOMAN, ORACLE And BATMAN?

So if the CW gets a Batman TV show as well, you might as well call it the DC Network.

Bleeding Cool was also the same site that reported that Legends of Tomorrow would be canceled after one season, and later reported that the second season would feature the Alan Scott version of Green Lantern and Constantine. So I'm taking this with a MASSIVE grain of salt.

But if Superman can finally appear on TV once more, I suppose anything is possible.

I really hope this doesn't happen. I don't trust CW anymore... they've done well by Flash, but Green Arrow has tanked, Legends of Tomorrow got worse with each episode, and Supergirl is meh.

Keep Batman away from the CW. Or if they do go Batman, go FULL Batman. Kill that stupid Gotham show and create a new show focusing on Bruce, Dick, Tim, Babs, Jason, Damian, Helena, Cass, and Stephanie. FULL BATMAN OR NO BATMAN.

I just hope they bring back Constantine for Season 2. Though Id prefer Netflix get the rights for Constantine.

Supergirl is fine, and Legends got better every episode IMO.

It'd be kind of cool if this ended up being a live action equivalent of the DCAU.

Legends was a failure in regards to time travel.

I quote: "The ONE thing that Legends of Tomorrow always needs to get right is time travel. The rest of the issues of the show might not be so problematic if it was firmly and irrefutably established what can and cannot ever be done with its central premise. The rules of time travel on Legends feel like they're being made up as the series goes along, and the characters very rarely face permanent repercussions when they break what rules there are, despite whatever warnings have come up about such timeline alterations. For anybody who has ever seen a quality time travel movie or episode of Doctor Who, Legends of Tomorrow can be tough to watch in that respect."

There's no consistent logic to the show. At all.

Fighting Savage and killing him three different times in three different times simultaneously? Truly, WTF.

This would be awesome. I hope it's true.

Supergirl is good for mainly one reason. But I still hope it gets at least a 3 season run.

I didn't know you were a fan of Martian Manhunter...

Laughing so hard the neighbors have called the cops.

Writing-wise, Legends is... a mess. But I still really enjoyed the show for the cast. It's mostly a rock-solid ensemble.

Not even all of the cast. The Hawks are terrible.

I was in it just for the characters who crossed over from The Flash... they and Sara were the only good parts of the show.

Oh yeah, the Hawks are almost always boring. I tried thinking of the coolest Hawkman or Hawkgirl have ever been and all I got was Hawkgirl in JL/JLU.

The rest are pretty good to great, IMO. Snart and Mick are glorious and developed nicely (if not necessarily smoothly), I grew to like Stein and Jax and Sara a lot, and Ray's sunniness is just charming. And Rip gets automatic bonus points for being Arthur Darvill. :wink:

I can't call it a "good" show or anything, but it got by pretty well on the strength of the ensemble for me. And considering the cast was made up of "whichever guest stars they could throw together", I'm impressed by that much. Full credit to the cast there.

I wanted to see Ray squished under Savage's boot. They portray him just so stinkin' incompetent. Like, Robot Chicken levels of incompetence. :tlol:

Admittedly I liked him a lot more before the Kendra Drama. :tlol: That idiocy with Hannibal Savage near the end was painfully stupid, but I can't fault Routh for the writing... But stuff like his "team-up" episode with Snart, and little moments with Mick, really work for me. (I dunno, I like Routh, what can I say.)

I'll give you that he's a good actor. He's just poorly written.

If he didn't act like a brain-damaged Boy Scout all the time, I could like him more...

Why do they keep making all these DC shows if they're all so mediocre then?

I find them way more wholesome and entertaining than Marvel's decent but "try too hard" Netflix stuff and Agents of S.*.I.T

Wholesome?

The thing is in theory a DC television universe sounds like a fantastic idea on paper. There's no reason why we shouldn't be getting great stuff.

We always argue that TMNT is never treated with respect, but it kind of applies to DC as well. Hundreds of great comics, but so little interest in trying to make them come alive; instead the emphasis is interpretation for the screen.

The DCTV panels aren't until Saturday so we got a bit to wait.
