Epic Arrow Trailer is Epic
The first trailer for the next season of Arrow has hit the Internet, and it’s pretty neat! We’ve got Oliver Queen, Speedy, Diggle’s new costume, some bad guys, some action, Felicity’s new sidekick and some awesome Felicity stuff! It’s everything you could want!
Looks pretty awesome! I’m excited for the new season, but there are so many superhero shows these days, especially spinning off from Arrow, that it’s easy to get overwhelmed. Still, I’m excited to see what they do with Speedy.

Misty Knight Secretly Cast in the Upcoming Luke Cage TV Show!
Casting announcements have been flying around the past week or so for the upcoming Luke Cage show on Netflix, and while I didn’t really know any of the characters or actors announced, we’ve finally got a live one here! It seems that the show will feature Misty Knight, another established superhero in the Marvel Universe!
Misty Knight will be played by actor Simone Missick, who I’ve never heard of, but I’m sure will do a fine job. Marvel and Netflix have this casting thing down pat!
Hopefully the robotic arm will be included
Deadline made the catch after a casting call listed the character as ‘Missy’.
Misty Knight is a badass former cop who lost an arm in the line of duty, then had it replaced by Tony Stark with an awesome bionic arm. No word on whether or not the bionic arm will also be in the show, but adding Misty Knight to the Netflix universe sounds awesome to me! And perhaps she’ll guest star in the eventual Iron Fist series, since they’re romantic partners in the comics.

Couple’a Neato TV Show Trailers
My computer chair broke the other day, and I’ve had to rely on a crappy, older fill-in chair all weekend. It sucks. I hate this chair and don’t wanna be at my computer longer than necessary. Fortunately, my good chair was still under warranty, and a replacement part has been shipped out. Unfortunately, it’s not here yet, so my butt is still stuck with this crummy option.
Either way, best I can do for the blog-loving masses is a couple of cool TV show trailers!
We’ve got Ash vs. Evil Dead:
And The Walking Dead:
So kind of a ‘dead’ theme going on today for some reason…

New Doctor Who Trailer Reminds Us that the Doctor Exists!
Hooray for new Doctor Who stuff! Here’s hoping Season 9 is awesome!
Was I the only one who kind of bristled a little at that last line, about the Doctor and Clara Oswald in the TARDIS? I realize that Clara has been around forever at this point, but I’m still not personally sold on her being such a permanent fixture. It’s weird. But hey, maybe the season will be so good I don’t even notice!

Kid Flash is Going To Be On The Flash TV Show!
I guess the rumors have been circulating, and now we know for sure: Kid Flash will be part of The Flash in season 2! Actor Keiynan Lonsdale has been cast as Wally West! I don’t know if they’ve confirmed that he’ll become the Flash’s sidekick, but he’s gotta, right? If The Flash is willing to do both Reverse Flash and Gorilla Grodd, they’re definitely going to do Kid Flash!
That’s his modern costume, but would they go with old school yellow?
This is pretty exciting news, because as you all know, I love sidekicks. I especially like Wally West as Kid Flash – though I’ll admit that I have no experience with him in the New 52, and I have a feeling that the show will portray a more New 52-ish Wally than the classic comic book Wally. Or maybe they’ll go old school origin and character with new school look. Who knows!
Of course, astute readers with good memories will recall that keeping Kid Flash out of the series was #1 on my list of things I wanted to see on the Flash TV show. But seeing how awesome the first season was, and how eager they were to really delve into stuff from the comics, I’ve changed my mind! Bring on Wally! Bring on Kid Flash! Bring on Season 2!
