It’s Happening! Flash and Supergirl Will Crossover!

Announced today by all parties involved, The Flash TV show will crossover in March with the Supergirl TV show, even though they’re on different networks. Fortunately, they’re both executive produced by the same guys, Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg, and they somehow made this happen! Seeing as how the Arrow/Flash crossovers have been ratings bonanzas, the people at CBS were apparently willing to play ball.

This is great news!

Who knows what this will mean for continuity, but who the heck cares? We can iron out those details later! All that matters is that nerd love and general world awesomeness made this happen, and we’ll get to see more crossovers! I love these things. All the Arrow/Flash crossovers have been great. And there’s going to be legit excitement to see Supergirl meet the Flash. It’s that palpable, geeky energy that made The Avengers movie so much fun.

See, universe? We can have nice things.

Though now I’m going to have to go back and catch up on Supergirl

The Flash’s Secret, Illegal Prison Has Gone Too Far

I don’t talk much about TV shows while they’re in progress, usually saving that for some end-of-season wrap-ups. But after the last two episodes of The Flash, I can’t stay silent any longer! The Flash and his allies, the supposed heroes of the show, are keeping a secret, illegal prison in their basement and holding multiple American citizens against their will with no due process at all.

The Flash likes to gloat

This is nothing new. This has been the status quo since early in Season 1, when they captured their first metahuman and didn’t know what else to do with him. They panicked, came up with this prison idea, and have just been rolling with it. That’s bad enough.

But now they’ve gone too far. Join me after the jump! SPOILERS for the last few episodes of The Flash.

Robot Chicken meets the Flash and Arrow

Words cannot express the beauty of Robot Chicken and DC Comics. After numerous crossover specials, it was only a matter of time before Robot Chicken lampooned two of DC’s best television series. Enjoy!

Sizzle Reels Show Both Arrow and Flash With Some Sizzle!

Quick, wicked trailers for the new seasons of Arrow and The Flash were shown off at New York Comic-Con this past weekend, and both are pretty neat. We’ve already seen some of these teases in earlier trailers, but there’s still a lot of cool, new stuff.

Flash

Arrow

I saw the first episodes last week, and both were very good. I’m definitely looking forward to the coming seasons. I still kinda miss Roy Harper on Arrow, but we’ll see how Thea steps up as the new Red Arrow. And here’s hoping The Flash can pull off alternate dimensions. That stuff gets pretty tricky.

New TV Show Trailers for Everybody!

When did TV show trailers become a thing? I completely understand them, expect them and enjoy them…but did they not simply creep up into our lives like a silent ninja? Did they not just appear suddenly and act like they’d always been here? I don’t remember any trailers for new seasons of Family Matters…

At any rate, enough grousing! Let’s enjoy some fun trailers for Arrow and The Flash, both of which seem like they’re going to embrace their comic book roots in the new seasons!

Green Arrow, Jay Garrick, Atom Smasher, other stuff; this is going to be a fun television season!
