Hank Henshaw is a different John

I can't see it.

 

[Joni]

Hank Henshaw is a different John

There should be a John Diggle spoof. Nobody cares about wrestling.

 

[BodiesWithoutOrgans]

OMG Martian Manhunter yes, yes and oh yes

can I jsut say Kat Grant is the best thing about this show she is fabulous

 

[ZeroX03]

I'm back for some Martian Manhunter baby.

 

[Joni]

Yeah, she went from obnoxious J Jonah Jameson like boss to a worthy Perry.

 

[brotkasten]

Yeah, I liked this episode. Pretty much all parts even, other than the love triangle thing. I loved the scene with Kara in the store.

Kat continues to be great, as does Max. It's fun to see those characters on screen.

It's a shame that the Hankshaw reveal was spoiled to me by some idiot in the Agent Carter thread. That said, I'm so glad that he isn't the bad guy. Speaking of which, I totally forgot about the Aunt. I hope the show pics up the pace a little, instead of continuing the freak of the week.

Yeah, I saw it posted in some other random thread.

 

[brotkasten]

Yeah, I saw it posted in some other random thread.

Yeah, that really annoyed me. You'd think that people in TV show threads would understand that the most, but I guess plugging a shitty subtitle for the next thread of a completely unrelated show is more important.

 

[bob_arctor]

This last episode was the best of the entire season imo. Pacing, the reveal, everything.

 

[Skux]

For those disappointed in the series so far I think this could be a big turning point. I've watched a bunch of interviews with the cast and showrunners and they feel like they're finally free of some of the constraints of the early episodes and just prepared to go in all guns blazing from here on out.

 

[Joni]

There is a tendency to spoil things with the thread titles like the current titles for Arrow and The Flash, which went up the day of the episode.

I would love it if this show manages to make a turnaround like Gotham and Agents of SHIELD did.

 

[Volimar]

Now that we have this reveal though, are Astra and Lord enough of a big bad to keep us going in the right direction? Without Cyborg Superman looming over us it feels kind of light on the serious villainy.

 

[KDash31987]

We don't know if the real Hank Henshaw will show up at some point. If he does, he'll surely be a cyborg.

About Astra...

Spoiler

I think she might work with/for Non, but I don't know for sure.

Sure but it was different with ol' red eyes right there. Real Henshaw is a pretty nebulous threat right now.

 

[Joni]

I'm thinking Astra works for somebody, or even against someone more evil, who is only introduced through flashes of a Superman fight that seemingly kills Superman.

interesting

Except Supergirl has been nowhere near as bad as those two were initially.


David Harewood hints as to when Kara will find out his true identity

Spoiler

When will Kara find out about J’onn J’onzz on Supergirl? — Bart
I’d say relatively soon since the duo will be working together in a very unique way in an upcoming episode. “He actually pretends to be Supergirl,” David Harewood teases of his shapeshifting hero. “She gets to see Supergirl for the first time, as Kara. It’s quite a thing for her to see herself taking off and flying into the sky. It fills her with pride that there’s this female superhero. She looks awesome.”

 

[gazele]

Yep, me too, a shame some people don't give those shows a chance after mediocre starts

Hope the same doesn't happen to Supergirl

 

[Joni]

Maybe there just isn't an audience bigger than 1.5 to watch this type of show live. No matter if it is flash, shield or gotham. Young people might be too good at the dvr thing.

 

[Napoleonthechimp]

We already know she does because she spoke to someone (who was shot over the shoulder style) in that one episode.

 

[Skelter]

Yup. I have yet to watch the show live. Hell, I saw the first episode at NYCC.

I have no idea how viewers are counted but recording shows aren't included in that 1.5?


I'm really liking how the show is turning out. Manhunter is just one of my favorites and it was a huge surprise! I hope the show only keeps getting better. I'm getting sick of Wynn though.

 

[Joni]

Well, if you watch the DVR on the same day, it is counted.

 

[Napoleonthechimp]

So is Superman the one other person who knows the truth about Martian Manhunter? I've got to imagine this is pre-Justice League what with him being a secret, so I can't imagine anyone else.

 

[Joni]

Yeah, we can only assume that is the person that knows. Unless it is a small hint that Jeremiah is still alive.

 

[BodiesWithoutOrgans]

Supergirl is legit good know it took a few episodes to get going, what a time to be alive, Agents of shield arrow flash supergirl Gotham agent Carter legends of tomorrow and all the dc and marvel movies

David Harewood mentioned in an interview that Superman was the other person.

 

[HeisenbergLannister]

Watched the pilot when it aired, thought it was alright, so kinda brushed off watching more until I heard good things down the road.

Saw about the Martian Manhunter being revealed, and had to jump back in. Watched all 7 episodes in 3 days, and was surprised at how good this show is, IMO. Benoist is the best, and I love the characterizations of Kara, Cat and James so far.

Definitely on board for the rest of the season, and hopefully more, if renewed and still entertaining.

 

[strafer]

Supergirl fall finale ends with two big cliff-hangers

“This is a huge episode for us,” he continues. “We have two pretty big cliff-hangers — one emotional and one literal. Just like any of our other shows, it’s really an epic two-parter and part two kicks off when we get back in January.”

 

[Joni]

Luckily it is only one month, the amount of Berlanti cliffhangers is enough to drive people crazy over the break.

 

[Ushay]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, just when I thought the show was going downhill.

Martian-Fucking-Manhunter appears. Nice.

 

[Blader]

Luckily it is only one month, the amount of Berlanti cliffhangers is enough to drive people crazy over the break.

Back in 3 weeks, isn't it? Much shorter than the Flash and Arrow breaks.

 

[strafer]

and agents of shield is back in fucking march...i cant...

 

[Joni]

Back in 3 weeks, isn't it? Much shorter than the Flash and Arrow breaks.

Oh, that is great news.

 

[Toa TAK]

Back in 3 weeks, isn't it? Much shorter than the Flash and Arrow breaks.

I thought it was 2?

Regardless, it's short so that cliffhanger shouldn't be so bad.

Right?

 

[strafer]

Henry Cavill guests stars as Mark Wayne

 

[DangerMouse]

Time to continue the greatness.

Back in 3 weeks, isn't it? Much shorter than the Flash and Arrow breaks.

Oh yeah? Cool!

Supergirl is legit good know it took a few episodes to get going, what a time to be alive, Agents of shield arrow flash supergirl Gotham agent Carter legends of tomorrow and all the dc and marvel movies

Yep

 

[WedgeX]

Lets, shall we.

 

[OdysseusVA]

We shall

 

[DangerMouse]

Here we go!

Yeah, love that theme

 

[RellyRell28]

Here we go

 

[PhoncipleBone]

Can it top the sheer giddy high I got last week with the Martian Manhunter reveal?

 

[Malvingt2]

here we go!!!

 

[WedgeX]

Shielded? She ain't wearing no mask.

Or gloves.

 

[Volimar]

Thank God for this thread. Forgot this was on.

 

[DangerMouse]

Kara legit shook.

Kryptonite knife

Gutsy escape Kara

LOL Hank "I really loved that knife"

 

[TreIII]

You would like having that knife, Jonn.

 

[RellyRell28]

Smallville still has the strongest form kryptonite I see
