It's not unbelievable there are multiple people called Linda Park, if you need an explanation.

True. And by accident one is a TV reporter and the other a newspaper journalist.

 

[Grizzlyjin]

Linda Park is like John Smith in Vancou-Star City.

I also just realized how weird it is that comic book city names literally have to tell us it's a city. Metropolis, Central City, Starling City, Hub City, National City.

New York City!?

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

Yes.



At least they reshot the Sara one. They still use that clip of Linda.

Wasn't it actually a new scene added just a bit before or did the Flash pilot add that bit?
I don't remember for sure.

 

[Grizzlyjin]

New York City!?

Or Oklahoma City. But it's actually a rarity in the naming convention of actual US cities, but the CW verse has tons of them. Those comic roots. They sound like Old Western towns anytime I hear it

Good question. I don't remember either. It was probably taped in one shot, so even at the people at Arrow/Flash probably don't remember what they used where.

Problem is most don't work without it,

Gotham = ok
Keystone = ok
Metropolis = lol
Bludhaven =ok
Star = nope
Central = nope
Coast = nope
Hub = nope
National = GJ Supergirl writers, you made the worst.

Here's a list of cities that have city in the name:

Oklahoma City
Kansas City
Atlantic City, NJ
Liberty City
Jersey City, NJ
Ocean City, MD
Salt Lake City, UT
Park City, UT
Cedar City, UT
Bear River City, UT
Garden City, UT
Oak City, UT
Plain City, UT
West Valley City, UT
Carson City, NV
Dodge City, AL
Dodge City, KS
Garden City, KS
Daly City, CA
Delaware City, DW
Tuba City, AZ
Junction City, AZ
Gun Barrel City, TX
Royse City, TX
Wolfe City, TX

So, going by this list we can assume that the DC universe was largely settled by Mormons because those people fucking love putting city in the name of their cities.

There is actually a place called Central in South Carolina.

 

[Joni]

Star City, Hub City, Central City and National City are real cities in the United States. Coast City is the only 'City' that doesn't actually have a real variant.

 

[Grizzlyjin]

From now on, I'm imagining that Utah is the center of the Arrowverse.

Learn something new every day.

I hope you are writing an apology to the Arrowverse writers.

 

[Grizzlyjin]

I hope you are writing an apology to the Arrowverse writers.

I'll send the Arrow and Legends writers a muffin basket as recompense. Team Flash gets nothing.

 

[Joni]

Team Flash will just steal the muffins. Like they are used to do.

next season the legends meet joseph smith and accidentally help start mormonism!

They need to come up with a silly reason for the next crossover to be Team Arrow (and The Legends) vs Team Flash (and Supergirl).

Still better than Marvel, where like every single earthbound hero hails from NYC.

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

I hope you are writing an apology to the Arrowverse writers.

National City I won't apologize for,
I hate it so much.

 

[Joni]

National City I won't apologize for,
I hate it so much.

Blame President Andrew Johnson. The town is even in the neighbourhood where you would expect the Supergirl National City.

 

[ZeroX03]

Made up cities > real places

It's cool when they can be amalgams or do their own thing

 

[caliph95]

Except Gotham and Bludhaven

She became a likeable character somewhere around episode 14 last year.

Excited for tonight. Keep the streak going!
