Wasn't the beam different? Like the beams were lazers and the blast was like a shotgun blast. It looked much more powerful impact wise. The beams didnt have much as much force it looked. Also Superman is way stronger than Jordan overall.

I am pretty sure the whole series take place over 4 years. The pilot was Logan's 80th birthday and this season was his 84th. His "obit" says he was 84 as well. Jinx!

This might be my favorite episode of the season. It was just fun. I don't care much about an overall arc, this show to me is a fun procedural and I like my shows mostly self contained with a few moments or hints at an overall plot arc. I may be in the minority but I am someone who couldn't even finish Andor but I would watch multiple seasons of episodes like this one.

Danny knew that if Jordan got to the final he is the favorite to win especially because he has a good partner. Danny has been saying Tori was telling him this early on. So he wanted Jordan out because he doesnt think he can beat him in a Challenge final. Or that he would be the underdog at the least. I am a bit confused by the comment regarding the composition of the finals participants and MVP vs Legends. Each team is made of 1 MVP and 1 Legend so there would be an equal number of each no matter who makes it. Unless I am mistaken?

I will forever hate MTV for the way they edited out Easy shitting all over her FIRST and only showing Laurel's response to make her look bad when he was the one who started it and said some terrible things to her. Like making fun of her looks, bacne, that no one would ever want sleep with her, that she couldn't have kids or something relating to fertility and more. Easy is an AWFUL person who was protected by MTV production on every show he was on. Like in All-Stars when they made it seem like it was Jemmye who wanted to quit when Easy was asking to quit first and was more vocal about it. Laurel was the initial victim of bullying who responded in a harsh manner and editing only showed her to shame her. The fact that she had to apologize at the reunion still makes me sick.

Yeah this show requires a heavy dose of suspension of disbelief with regards to police procedures and today's cameras and surveillance technology especially in London. Basically you are on a camera somewhere from the second you leave your residence (even inside in some places) until you return. I just treat this and all shows like this as an alternate universe where our real world stuff doesn't always apply. Otherwise it would drive me mad. Any fictional show is not in our real world so getting hung up on real world stuff makes viewing harder. IMO of course. YMMV.

Pretty sure it was make up. Offerman showed up with short hair and clean shaven which you can see in the Inside the Episode feature after. Maybe because he was a recast?

First boots:

Social media and cancel culture has also killed most of the drama or "reality" aspect of the show. Everyone is too afraid to be "real" on the show as there are now real world potential career ending consequences for things that previously would may be frowned upon but in a lot of cases, would be able to be discussed and learning and growing could be done. That is literally gone as the vocal minority public expects perfection in all words and deeds and anything even just 1 person has an issue with could steamroll into huge problems for the cast AND production. There is also the issue that when this show was in its heyday, it was not seen so much as a career but something fun to do and in most cases would not lead anywhere. Now it is a career for a lot of them and even just being on the show without winning can help with influencing and other entertainment jobs but like I said above you need to make sure you do not do anything that might jeopardize this. Lastly, even if they did cast people who don't care about this or lacked the ability to prevent themselves from providing dramatic moments, CBS/Paramount is not going to show anything that may be viewed negatively or potentially lead to trending in a bad way leading to complaints, talks of boycotts, loss of advertisers, etc. The old adage that any publicity even bad is good publicity is no longer true at all. If you follow spoilers and the cast doing podcasts or their social media, you will see that there are still a lot of messy dramatic moments happening but they are being edited out. The only time they are not is if Paramount wants to virtue signal like they did something and even that it is unlikely to happen. Better to not even address it unless forced (Camilia for example).

I think I read that as soon as she left the show Nurys told Jordan she was into someone else and peaced out. Sounds like it was just a showmance for her. Nothing serious and he was there to pass the time.

Yeah Wes wanted CT to try and hit him to get him out. He admitted as much. Unfortunately for him CT was smart enough to keep it verbal. It was funny the next morning when Wes was trying to act like nothing happened and CT was still pissed.

Gone now. I downloaded copies of 1A and will do so for the 2nd half wherever it lands. I will not watch it on some free ad riddled service. And if they have ads, wouldn't that mean the content will be edited? Since it will no longer be a subscription service with those protections?

Fessy might just be the most overconfident in respect to his actual abilities out of any challenger since Danny from Austin. I mean Fessy is clearly better but he is not elite and never will be. He thinks just because he is big and was a collegiate athlete (which many Challengers have also been, some at a higher level than Fessy) he just assumes he is better than everyone. It is so delusional. When CT said to Wes in their hours long Rivals fight that he couldn't stop him and he was better than him and he would smoke him, it was real and true. Every single person who heard or saw that agreed with CT because he had proven his ability before. Fessy has never done anything to impress me athletically. Yes he is a good athlete but he hasn't done anything that someone else hasn't done previously and or better. I mean you have feats by Landon, Alton, CT, Jordan, even Wes back in the day which amazed both the cast and the viewers. Can anyone name anything Fessy has done besides hurt smaller people than him in strictly size based challenges? Hell Latarian on All Stars hurt people in Pole Wrestle and it was way more impressive to me due to the size of each challenger being closer. Tyler is even bigger than Latarian and he got smoked and hurt. Even after being proven that he couldn't beat Bananas in a final previously, he still doesn't understand why Bananas does good. Like him or not, he is very good, maybe the best ever in dailies and one of the best in finals. Same with CT, calls him old and done and CT goes on to win the next 2 back to back. I guarantee he still thinks he could beat him. Even if Kaycee hadn't gotten hurt, no one was beating Amber and CT in that final. The entitlement without anything to back it up is all time narcissism in my opinion. Which is probably why he keeps getting brought back to be honest. Production loves their braggadocious douches.

Sucks. I loved the Nevers and have been waiting for part 2 of Season 1 since the half season finale last Spring. Ugh. Also I keep seeing that it has been pulled but it is still up as of today.

According to the most recent official podcast, when Veronica came in she tried to spread the rumor that CT and Cara were coming in next which shook up a lot of people with some even threatening to quit if they came on. LOL. They couldn't keep it going long but that must have been funny to see. Of course they wont show any of this.

I just hope this is better than the first one which I thought was overrated despite really enjoying Chadwick's and Michael B Jordan's performances. But as a whole, the movie itself is in the middle of the pack for me.

I read that the whole cast knew about the vet ride or dies that are coming so all those reactions are fake.

Kaycee and bro will be back. Quarantine for testing positive but the trailer clearly shows them competing in multiple challenges. They just missed like a week I think.

Pretty sure Hulks are temperature resistant so they don't even need clothes at all other than for modesty's sake. It looks good to me and I assume Bruce would wear something similar with no issues. I know I would rather wear short sleeves and shorts if possible than long sleeves and pants. I wear them in winter all the time and I am not blessed with Hulk powers.

I concede that cash bars are considered tacky by many based on the responses here. I have not been privileged enough to run in the circles where that was even considered so it was a shock to me. Most people and family I know live check to check so paying for people to drink aside from champagne during toast was not in the budget. At my wedding we had wine during the serving of dinner only but anything else was cash only. Free soda and non alcoholic drinks. That has been the norm for my social circle although even though mine was the only one I have been to that had the wine during dinner. Obviously never been to a multi-day event either and it is extremely unlikely that will ever happen so that was the cause of my confusion. Thanks to all for enlightening me on this world. Just unfamilar to me. On topic of the show, I am still enjoying it but they really do need to up the action a bit.

I was today year's old when I learned that a cash bar was considered tacky since every wedding including my own I have attended (with one exception) has had a cash bar. Clearly I am too low class to know people who can afford such things.

Maybe it is just me but the casting of the small slight looking kids for the roles of Superman's kids bugs me. Maybe it is that way in some comic I am unaware of but I find it hard to believe with the genetics involved they would be so tiny in comparison to Superman. I don't know why it bugs but it does. I am 6'3" and my ex was same height as Bitsie. My son is over 6ft and my daughter is 5'11". My dad was 6'5" and my brother is 6'2" I know genetics are weird and don't always translate but with Kryptonian genetics you would think the kids would be bigger. Not just in height but frame. I still enjoy the performances but the eye test takes me out sometimes.

Shauvon didn't really rupture her implant, she just feared she had. The doctors she saw confirmed it was ok and did not pop or leak. Still took a bad fall and bruised that whole area pretty bad.

Subtitles for the win!!

I heard about the rumors of them hooking up after Season 2 before this Season even filmed and coinciding with her removal of all signs of her husband from social media and reports from the filming of this season as well, I think they were clearly hooking up. MJ was divorced or single at the time but she was not at least not when it began. This is nothing new for Jonna, she has cheated before and it was mentioned in multiple shows she was on previously. No shade, just a fact that she is a repeat cheater. Her and hubby are back together though now though. Hopefully it works out for them for the sake of them both and their kids.
