Your surprised by the bad acting.... on the CW?
I expect that. The first episode was a lot of fun, nothing great, but I appreciate how unashamedly it embraced being a comic book show. I am not sure I will stick with it but it at least has me curious.
The highlight for me. They are great.
I recall a Smallville episode using a PSP as a tracking device.
CW gonna CW.
Yes, Sky One.

Could be a recast/different direction though considering the actress is kinda busy(Main on Gotham, DC DTV and is in Deadpool.)

Decent first half of the pilot, but I've gotta say...
They brought up the concept of not everyone on the team surviving or being around this season. IMO, it should be obvious who they should get rid of.
Sorry Hawkcouple. They should have never had both of you on the show in the first place. Why can't people take JLU's example with Hawkman/woman? Just use one, avoid the destined couple crap.
The only reason why I'm ok with it this time is because the show is built around it, and it'll hopefully end when Vandal goes down.

I liked most of these characters in LoT in the flash/arrow. I like the flash in spite of the love triangles and stuff that has nothing to do with the main plot. I don't think it's the best written show but it has its charms.
It's not like I dislike a bit of cw cheese either. This had too much cheese for me to keep interest.
The show stabilizes a bit but the cheese/camp is clearly here to stay.
Spoilers:
there's a very good chance you'll get your wish with the Hawks

I liked the pilot a lot and will definitely watch upcoming episodes, but what the hell is up with the pronunciation of Shayera? Maybe it's the Justice League cartoon bias in me, but I swear every time I hear it, I feel like it should be different.
Also I noticed a cool easter egg during the final scene. If you pause while it is loading the Norway 1975 logo, you can see Keystone City (it's where Jay Garrick and Wally West are from in the comics) written.

Wally over on The Flash is a Keystone kid, he name drops it last episode.
That whole bar scene was probably my favorite part of the episode.
Overall I enjoyed the pilot, it was pretty much what I was expecting. Not as good as Flash or Arrow but a fun little teamup show.
You really are happy about that spoiler, aren't you?

Oh yeah, I forgot that The 100 was coming back this week and thought we were getting two hours for LoT tonight.
I'm certainly not unhappy about it.

Hawkman dying could be interesting, since with the time-traveling, they could cross paths with a different reincarnation. Not a big fan of the character or the actor so I won't lose sleep about the loss.
I finally got to see it, so I can be amazed some of you guys posted 50 messages in a single night.
It was a middling debut with the one-liners being the highlight. Sara and the villains fit well together in that respect.
The Sara-Laurel fight was very touching, their best scenes together ever.

Flash is supposed to be in.
No word on Thawne, but considering the stuff that we saw today, he should try to make an appearance or the next Flash episode should explain it
Flash will be in. Eobard probably won't, he doesn't match the timeline they've laid out. They won't go past 2166 and his time is a bit beyond that.

Imagine if in the episode where they go to the future and meet
the future Oliver that he is married to Laurel.
They can always jump a bit further in the future or meet up with him somewhere in the past. At least take the time somewhere to explain why he also has a Gideon.
Producers stated they won't go past that point in time this season.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
I wonder if we'll see what happened to all the cows in the future.
Vandal Savage is vegan.

Either that or he's an apex predator.
Did you miss right at the start where Rip compares Savage to Hitler, Caesar and Druckmann?

Just saw the episode and I liked it a LOT
I laughed a ton and even though they didn't show too much action with the entire team, I can tell that it's gonna kick some butt! I just hope that most of the action won't revolve around fighting generic mooks, there's already waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much of that in the Avengers movies.
The highlights for me were Captain Cold and Heatwave. Both bring so much charisma on screen.
The exchange
"Let's get weird in 1975."
"Yessssssss that sounds like an excellent idea"
was HYSTERICAL
Overall I liked it a lot, much better than Flash's anticlimactic return and enjoyed it about as much as Arrow's return. CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT EPISODE WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

The Berlanti people tend to lie about their shows, but you're probably right. There is luckily another show that can solve those riddles.
Still, it was eight versus one and Chronos still lives.

Who was the voice actor for Chronos? He sounds very, very familiar.
Nothing to find, seems like they are keeping that casting very hidden.

So, this Chronos guy is actually a good guy then?

I liked the start.
Hopefully we get to know more about Gideon.
Hopefully we get to know more about Gideon.
Technically...yes
From my point of view the Time Masters are evil
It's not, it's how you spell superior girl thoThat's not how you spell Felicity.
Just as good or evil as Boba Fett or Dog the Bounty Hunter.

Yupp! I was wondering about that.
It looked like they could have easily beaten him and I thought "why are they escaping when they can take him right here and now?"
but I realized that they probably didn't want to attract attention to themselves. Which proved to be the right call when the two random dudes came to check things out.
Don't forget he has two weapons that can basically kill in one hit, the disintegrator killed the two kids and his normal laser took down Hawkkid.
