Guggenheim just debunked that rumor almost exactly a month ago, saying most of the current cast will stay on for S2, and maybe Huntress will join. A "beloved" hero from the DC canon will be introduced too. Someone is going to die in the season finale, though. Which reminds me - fuck Hawkgirl. She's always been annoying as fuck, but the last episode reaffirmed her as inept and pretty useless.

And once again, no one brought up Marvel except for the DC fans.

The cat's out of the bag on the Spider-Man cameo, surely. Why is he not on any of these posters or anything? Seems like they should be touting that fact more than they are. I mean there's only been, what, a trailer and a TV spot that had footage of Spider-Man?

I caught up on all three shows this week, last night, because I started a new job. Watched them all in succession, and... Flash was subpar. That villain was pretty terrible, and the subplot with Zoom/Killer Frost/Kaitlin was boring as all hell too. The Wally/Flash thing was kind of stupid, I thought. Just one more person that Barry is going to eventually tell his secret to, obviously. Arrow was the best episode of the season so far. I was tearing up like every 5 minutes it seemed. Someone else said it earlier and it's true, it's either a giant red herring or the best tribute episode ever. Is that runaway girl going to be Black Canary II? Legends of Tomorrow was fun as hell. I really like Savage's daughter, I kind of hope she stays on the show. I'm willing to bet he gets away in the finale, but if not - where do they go from here? I thought this was going to be a limited time type series, but I heard it got a second season ordered, so if they kill Savage, who's the next "big bad"? It's also pretty funny that DC got to use their version of Giant Man, on TV, before Marvel ever got to do a Giant Man, on film.

Steve Lightfoot from Hannibal will be running The Punisher series, it got officially ordered today for a full season.

Because "it's a kids show, damnit! rah rah get off my lawn"

I'm laughing so hard at the people bitching about the crowds singing a song to Bayley, and completely missing the meaning behind the song. Of course a number of the people here would look at it as objectifying Bayley as a sexual object, while ignoring that MAYBE, just maybe the crowds sing that song to her because they like her and they've chosen her as "their" girl. You know, like Daniel Bryan was to a lot of people in 2014. But, hey, whatever, if she has a vagina it must be trying to objectify her! Meanwhile, maybe 1 or two people have ever called out the guy that does the RAW threads for posting ass crack and tit screengrabs. That's okay, apparently - but singing a song? HELL NO! Also, I like how the crowds booing John Cena must mean they're "Smarky McSmarks" or neckbeards instead of, y'know, actively disliking his work and booing him accordingly. Such a negative view inside this wrestling bubble.

thirsty much?

Speaking of Maron, I can't wait to see S4 of his show on IFC. I saw a preview for the new season last night while Fight Club was on, and it looks great (and depressing).

Who is, though? That was awful.

I'm really hoping OSP wins. Gotta root for the guy from Tennessee, can't help it.

I don't know where I stand on the McGregor issue really - I've said before that I'm not as into MMA as some of you other guys - but he's doing the same amount of press for the Diaz rematch from Iceland on his Twitter account as he would if he was in Vegas at the press conference. I get that it's in his contract, or whatever, but all this drama is selling whatever card that match ends up on tenfold. In my circle of friends, people that don't even watch were asking me if I heard about the McGregor retirement thing and what's it all about, etc.

Nate had an interesting stance all through that press conference. Rashad Evans was on FS1 and said he's not retiring and is considering a drop to 185.

Diaz is fighting, but they don't know against who yet. I guess the other empty chair is to stick it to Conor.

What's your take on what it might be?

Any chance they announce a new main event today (in about 10 minutes) when the UFC 200 press conference starts? Some pictures are popping up on Reddit and Twitter from inside, and the two most prominent seats at the tables don't have nameplates for them. Nate is backstage supposedly too.

Johnny Gargano!

I kind of hope evil Daisy and Hive don't get cured or killed, and are villains in the next season. That's a big bad pairing that I can get behind, and I just can't express how much I love this new version of Ward that's completely badass and sinister. I'm sure the CGI effects for Hive aren't going to be what I think they should be, but one can hope. I'm almost certain Jemma is going to die, because this show loves fucking those two over.

If that's true, and she really had passed a day or two ago and no-one found her... that's my worse fear actually, for me. That's scary and heartbreaking, I don't even want to imagine it. This combined with the news about Prince dying... man, fuck today. Fuck 2016 in general, damn. I realize as the years go on and we all get older, that these performers do too, I guess it just doesn't feel that way. I'm hoping this was an accidental overdose and she just slipped into a coma and passed peacefully. This is so sad. And not to play that game, but it seems really weird for Triple H to be saying now she deserves to be in the HOF, when he said different on that podcast on the Network. I don't want to think about that right now, though.

the fuck is wrong with you?

For what it's worth, TMZ confirmed it.

Oh shit. That's sad if true

Wally West is totally the Earth 2 Flash, and he's the Man in the Iron Mask. I'm calling it now.

It's been deleted from his Twitter account, jesus christ.
