Tomorrow Today: Media & Behind The Scenes Of LOT

[Miss Dee]

I kinda gotta agree with my girl Zari though: One bathroom? Among 7-8 people?! What the hell do they do when Mick's hogging it after a bender - drag him out and make him use a bucket? No wonder Stein wants to get out of there; the bladder gets weaker as one ages!!

Although I suppose one bathroom doesn't necessarily mean one toilet. I now demand bathroom tete-a-tetes like in Ally Macbeal.

And does that mean there's only one place to shower?? Are they on a shower schedule as well as a chore schedule? I have so many questions!!

[Sakura12]

I wonder if it's one coed bathroom or they actually only have one toilet. Can't they just have Gideon make another bathroom? They had her make a library. 

[Miss Dee]

If it's one coed bathroom with one shower, that line of Zari's is going to launch a thousand fanfics....

Seems like we say that a lot about this show. :)

[Miss Dee]

It's definitely that kind of show!

[Starfish35]

Sorry!  I haven't been keeping up with posting the ratings lately.  Here's the ratings season-to-date with preliminary ratings from last night.  On Halloween night and against Game 6 of the World Series, they did drop 0.1 in the demo, but considering The Flash dropped 0.3, I think the show did pretty well.

I wonder why Sara will be out of commission?

[Sakura12]

Something must happen to Sara in the Old Hollywood episode. I hope she doesn't die again. 

[Miss Dee]

Im really excitex to get some glimpse i to Rory's path too.

Figures that Ray's childhood is like E.T. and Mick's is visited through Vietnam. Will Apocalypse Now be the template for this one?

I'm kind of hoping for Good Morning, Vietnam.  Failing that, with Full Metal Jacket.  Bonus points if they get R. Lee Ermey to guest star.

Exclusive: Get A Closer Look At Zari's 'Legends of Tomorrow' Totem
by Craig Byrne | October 31, 2017
http://comicbook.com/dc/2017/10/31/exclusive-legends-of-tomorrow-image-get-a-closer-look-at-zaris-t/

Quote

The character of Zari Tomaz (Tala Ashe) was added to the cast of DC's Legends of Tomorrow last week, and with her came an item that has quite a history with comic book fans and fans of pop culture: her necklace or "totem" which calls back to the classic Secrets of Isis TV series.

ComicBook.com has been provided with an exclusive look the production art for the totem which can be seen on The CW TV series. The totem was designed by Ken Hawryliw with input by Executive Producer Marc Guggenheim.

"I was so excited," Guggenheim said of how he reacted when he first got a peek at the totem prop, which at first glance does resemble the item worn by actress Joanna Cameron on both her necklace and her tiara.

In the original TV series, Andrea Thomas would touch her amulet and call out for "oh mighty Isis" in order to change into the goddess and harness her power. The character made her major splash in DC Comics in 2006 as "Adrianna Tomaz" became Isis as part of the weekly comic book series 52. There, too, she had an amulet and was a female counterpoint to Black Adam. It should be noted that the Legends of Tomorrow character's full name was announced as Zari Adrianna Tomaz.

"Look: I make no secret of the fact that I loved the Shazam/Isis Hour from when I was growing up. It was very important to me that certain elements from the original Saturday morning show were reflected," Guggenheim stated at a Q&A last week.

In addition to the Shazam/Isis Hour, Isis and a version of her amulet were represented in the Smallville episode "Isis" where Lois Lane (Erica Durance) found herself possessed by the spirit of the goddess. Erica Cerra appeared briefly in that episode as Adrianna Tomaz.

They usually do two and a producer preview, but I've been looking on YouTube and haven't found them yet.  If I do later, I will update.

[Sakura12]

Would Rip really be able to call of Ava, she seems to have a real unwarranted hatred for the Legends and doesn't care what Rip says about them. 

[Starfish35]

I am really super unclear on what Rip's position is within the Time Bureau.  He obviously founded them, but this is the second reference to a Director Bennett.  So *shrugs*   

[Starfish35]

I think this is the producer preview - haven't been able to watch it yet.

Sara's been wearing her outfit a little more this season, I guess she likes her new suit. 

[Starfish35]

Maybe it's more comfortable? It's got to be easier to get into than the corseted version.

Something about it though....I'm still not sure I'm a fan.

Speaking of that! @tv echo just posted this over in the Mind Your Surroundings thread:

I wasn't a huge fan of the top of the neckline. It felt a little too militaristic. The mock neck was a little too high for my taste. Overall, it wasn't bad it just wasn't as good as I think it could be.

[Starfish35]

SpoilerTV has posted images for #307 "Welcome to the Jungle".  I'll post them in a while, but in the meantime here's the link.

https://www.spoilertv.com/2017/11/legends-of-tomorrow-episode-307-welcome.html

It sounds like this episode won't have much Sara, maybe because Caity was already working on the crossover? (My speculation only)

[Sakura12]

Sara's "out of commission" in that one, whatever that means. Did she die again? 

[Starfish35]

I assumed it meant that she would get injured pretty badly in her most recent fight with Darhk, but I'm not sure what it would be that Gideon couldn't fix.  So maybe it's not a physical injury?  

Edited November 9, 2017 by Starfish35

[kismet]

Yeah, I wonder if it was a crossover logistics thing that kept CL from filming this episode. I hope it will be a believable out of commission.

[Sakura12]

Maybe she's in a magically induced coma from Darkh? 

[Starfish35]

That could be. If so, I wonder who her 2nd in command is, to take charge.  I'm thinking Jax.

Edited November 9, 2017 by Starfish35

[scarynikki12]

I'm worried it will be Nate.

[Starfish35]

Oh no. Surely not. :(

[Sakura12]

I hope they keep Jax as her second, however I would accept Mick since they are going into a warzone.

I can't believe it'd be either Ray or Nate.  Stein proved early in Season 2 that he'd suck as a leader.  Zari is too new.  While the Legends accept Mick as a team member I don't think they'd follow him even as a temporary leader except under fairly specific short-term circumstances (as in the Al Capone episode from Season 2).  That's everyone except Jax and Amaya.  Of the two I'd lean toward Amaya being the leader.

[kismet]

If SL is just out of commission for a small amount of time, I would imagine that they will just be leaderless. For example, if it's just that she is temporarily sick or still needed in Star/Central City, then I can see them leading by consensus. If her out of commission is something bigger like a coma or capture, then I could see them electing/promoting her 2nd.

Stein will either be gone or has already proven not to be good at it.

Ray, Nate & Mick have never been shown to have leadership skills/desire.

Zari is too new to be the leader and I think she might have the rogue tendencies of Rip.

I think it will be down to Jax or Amaya, and honestly I would be happy with either of them as leader.

[Miss Dee]

Jax and Amaya would be my picks for the Riker to Sara's Picard.

Actually, it'd be:

Sara = Picard (leadership)

Amaya = Riker (apprentice leader, practical experience)

Jax = Geordi (engineer)

Mick = Worf (weapons, security/protect the crew)

Ray = Data (technology, innovative thinking, innocent)

Stein = Crusher (fatherly demeanor, does medical stuff)

Nate = Troi (emotionally aware, stronger in humanities like art and history than science)

[MarkHB]

SSSHHHH.... You're giving away their secrets!

What is it with Jax and oversized helmets this season?

Nope, the others can be Next Generation, but Sara is definitely Kirk.  Time-traveling bisexual Captain Kirk, whose multi-year mission is to seek out hot people in different time periods and do the nasty with them.

Did you all know this was Maisie Richardson-Sellers' mother?  I didn't.  That's pretty cool.

I'm glad Caity had this changed:

http://comicbook.com/dc/2017/11/15/legends-of-tomorrow-star-caity-lotz-reveals-her-favorite-sara-la/

During a recent interview on the set of DC's Legends of Tomorrow, series star Caity Lotz revealed that this week's medically-induced coma for Sara Lance was almost a bigger cliffhanger: producers wanted the audience to see her for the last time with her eyes open, implying that she had died.

That wasn't going to fly with Lotz.

"I made a big thing because they wanted me to have my eyes open at the end like, 'Oh my God, Sarah is dead,'" Lotz said. "I was like 'Guys, we’ve done that way too many times.' So you can sleep well tonight knowing that I’m not dead."

More if you follow the link.

[kismet]

Thank you CL!!! Seriously, that SL is dead has been played out way too often. It wouldn't even had been a cliffhanger, just more of a hang nail.

[Sakura12]

The "Oh no they killed Sara" has kind of been a running joke with her character. Sara's super power is basically surviving, she can't even kill herself.
