It'll probably be All American.

Based on the latest trailer, we're getting lots of flashbacks to Vegas. Like I mentioned in the previous thread, the actor playing Darnell is a series regular on another show so I think he will be written out in a way that he can occasionally return.

Darnell is in the preview for the next episode. He's still on the Crenshaw team but I suspect that he won't be in as many episodes this season because while he recurs on this show, he's a series regular on a Starz series and an HBO Max show.

I'm actually shocked by the T-Pain "fix" insinuations. Like why would the show be fixed for T-Pain of all people? It's my first time here (hi!) and the first time I've come across such a suggestion. Anyway, I personally love Monster and as someone who only knows T-Pain's autotuned songs, I'm surprised that he can actually sing and think he's a great example of what the show is really about. I've enjoyed Lion's performances but thought last night was her weakest so it was fitting that she left. I think if she'd switched her performances around and sung that earlier, she'd be in the finale.

The thing about Remy is that I'm certain he'd have no problem lecturing someone against dating their ex's sibling.

A lot of them have gotten really nasty and racist so I don't blame him for responding a few times.

For real. I listened to about half of the interview and didn't find anything wrong with anything he said. Maybe it's in the second half. *shrug*

Great for SG. I wonder if it will be the only 0.5 this week or SPN will rise.

Honestly. It made no sense and appears to have been written specifically for the vocal fandom because these things happened before she and Mon-El were together and she always called him out on everything. How are these things she's finally getting off her chest when she already did so last season then later noticed that he'd changed? And last season Mon-El called himself an ignorant, spoiled, useless person both to his parents and Kara so he already acknowledged it. And like you mentioned, in true Supergirl fashion, Mon-El isn't allowed any anger or to express what parts of the relationship weren't perfect to him. He just has to stand there and take it, something aimed at pleasing his detractors and not really about giving the relationship a true, clean slate.

He told J'onn.

Legends numbers are for last year and the last data point was for the post-crossover episode which saw a bump. For example, the pre-crossover episode was a 0.9 in Live +7. It'll be interesting to see what it looks like this year.

That's a relatively significant half hour drop for iZombie.

Mon-El's real suit is surprisingly similar to the manip. It's revealed in their midseason promo.

I believe it's a manip. His head is from Containment.

Someone saw an ad for it on ESPN so they are advertising it.

I really doubt it's the same suit. https://www.geekfeed.com/supergirl-mon-el-superhero-suit/

I think it's the Sam/Reign lady and the "disgraced priestess" will be played by Krys Marshall.

That's because their primary purpose is to squeeze as much drama as possible out of every scenario and they couldn't care less how Mon-El comes off. Otherwise, why would Kara's introduction to Imra be after they kissed when he could have told her who she was when Kara smashed her pod? And ridiculous things like setting up the ribs date just to piss all over it and hurt Kara's feelings in this episode? Or stupid questions like, "Do you want to talk about it?" Or showing up at the DEO to talk about relationships and other bullshit! I really hope they didn't introduce the Legion just for relationship drama because so far, I am not impressed. I watch this show and wonder WHY they keep writing stupidly when there are so many obvious, better ways that things can be done. James and Lena could have been set up better. Mon-El's return could have been set up better and in a far more interesting, intriguing way. These boring Ruby/Sam scenes can be drastically cut to create real estate for other more interesting storylines. They are mother and daughter so the default is that they love each other hence, we don't need these many scenes. And Kara having a hard time doesn't mean the episodes have to be so depressing. What's so great about Kara being down in the dumps all season? Why have they sucked out most of the fun from the show?

I just read Emily's statement. She straight up called her boss out by referencing "reverse sexism."

Thanks! I've learned something today. :D It was a different actor. The character was a big fan of (or perhaps had a crush on) the person they were talking to which led many to think it was Brainiac 5 talking to Kara.

3x09 is the Christmas episode. I am not certain what episode the deleted video was an audition for but the dialogue and mannerisms made many people think it was for Brainiac 5. It could be for the 3x10 episode. Edit: "4 weeks ago" is when the video was posted. It appears Vimeo doesn't provide specific dates (or I can't find it).

Okay, my bad. The deleted video is of the Brainiac (?) audition. This is the video referencing Christmas. It says "4 weeks ago" without a date. I just did a Twitter search and someone tagged the show about a Christmas episode on October 14th but it seems there was a confirmation of some sort on October 16th as other people commented on it. Re: Sexual harassment. People shouldn't lose their jobs because an executive is a sexual harasser. The man should be fired and they should take measures to create an environment where victims don't feel helpless and such problems are handled swiftly. It appears that House of Cards isn't dead yet and I hope they kill off the character and not have their decision affect innocent parties, including those who might have been his victims.

I think there were already an audition on Vimeo (that has since been taken down) by that time pointing at a Christmas episode.

I'm finding this season boring with the last one the worst of them all. All the episodes are like standalones and I wouldn't know there was a big bad if I didn't google which is not how television should work. And while Reign is being developed, we need some other driving force. If it's Morgan Edge, he should be a looming threat on a larger scale (like Cadmus was) and not just have an axe to grind with Lena for "reasons." What's motivating Kara this season? What's connecting each episode? Winn is being pushed further into the background with no storyline of his own. James is just there to get undermined by Lena which is apparently his kink because he's falling for her. J'onn had his episode and is now relegated to 2 lines an episode till his next big episode. And worst of all, most of the humor and fun have been sucked out of the show.

I miss Mon-El and think his humor is needed to lighten up the show a little but based on that interview, it sounds like he's probably returning humorless which won't help any.
