Morrigan2575 June 15, 2015 Share June 15, 2015 (edited) Well, if it was a fan war thing, maybe someone bought the followers for her, haha. ETA: as in without her knowledge, in order to win what seems like a really idiotic argument. That would be hysterical.Honestly, I really shouldn't judge Twitter/Tumblr fans considering how much time I spend mocking The Cowboys, Eagles, Patriots and Red Sox.

quarks June 15, 2015 Share June 15, 2015 I don't think she buys likes (because as far as I know that's not possible), Here's a fun article about buying Facebook likes that goes into more detail than you probably wanted to know, but also has a cat picture: http://adespresso.com/academy/blog/buy-facebook-likes/ 4 Link to comment
AnyoneButYou June 15, 2015 Share June 15, 2015 I just looked at a handful of KC's followers, and it's pretty hilarious. None of them have any followers and only a handful of tweets that are gibberish. Their bios are pretty entertaining. One worships Satan with all her heart, life, and soul. I just never realized this was actually a thing. It's both sad and hilarious. 6 Link to comment
foreverevolving June 16, 2015 Share June 16, 2015 Actually KC buys also Facebook likes for her posts. I don't follow her on Facebook and almost everyday her posts appear on my Facebook timeline as sponsored, and there is only one reason for that. I thought sponsored posts were just facebook way of telling you: were following your every like, search and what not - sort of like google sponsored search results?- I've seen stuff show up on my facebook feed (not any posts or shares from people i'm friends with) about things i've only ever googled once, or celebrities that have connections (however vague) to pages I liked. or in other words: big brother is watching. 2 Link to comment

The minute I did, I'm presented with this list of "People you might know" which was freakishly accurate...a guy I dated briefly a million years ago, and distant relatives included. This was all WITHOUT my given name. Yuck. 3 Link to comment
Kordi June 16, 2015 Share June 16, 2015 On his FB page SA declared he is officially back from his "social media break". Well, let´s see if this true... since he deleted his last FB pic shortly after posting it I´m somewhat suspicious... However, his daughter is cute as always :-) BTW, SA came back to twitter, too. Here is a recent tweet of his. I have no idea though what it means. Could anybody possibly decipher it for me? I probably don´t know enough about US sports to get the message... "Hey @SNBarryDavis - I'm right behind you. Going to get @BringerOfRain20 elected to the ASG. just letting you know." Link to comment

One of the funniest pieces of the Twitter puzzle to Kreisberg is the uber-passionate fans who truly believe their opinionated tweets are actively changing what goes on in the writers’ room week-to-week. “The weirdest thing is the people who think that they’re influencing the show.” Edited June 16, 2015 by tv echo Link to comment
justbelieving June 16, 2015 Share June 16, 2015 I don't think she buys likes (because as far as I know that's not possible), but she does promote a post about Red Nose Day a while back. A celebration? Wow. In theory you can't by likes on Facebook, but in reality it's not totally true. When you make a promotion of your page or post, Facebook gives you likes (normally from "real accounts" from India and Pakistan) so as to ensure the perceived success of your campaign and to tempt you to create a new promotion. So yes some likes are real, but normally more likes come directly from Facebook and their number is proportional to how much you paid. I wasn't talking about the Red Nose Day post, but I saw her promoting a lot of posts. The last one I remember was a post about her training in the gym. But she can do what she wants :) Link to comment

foreverevolving June 17, 2015 Share June 17, 2015 (edited) Somebody needs to sit AK down and tell him to stop using "you know" and "umm" so much within a sentence; it's really annoying. I know it's a sign that the speaker is nervous, but it also appears to the listener that the speaker may have zero knowledge on the topic and therefore his brain is scrambling for words to describe it. Seriously did he not take public speaking classes? that's public speaking 101, you don't use such fillers if you get stuck, or you don't use them so much because it doesn't just take your audience focus away from whatever main point you are trying to convey, it may irate them to the point that they will stop listening (which is kind of what happened to me).

Less lair & more upscale desert Oasis, it even had a concierge in Maseo. Like many of us said, the LoA should just give up the whole assassin thing and focus on what they are good at like hospitality & jewelery/clothes. :) I hope the put SA on one of the commentaries.

Chaser June 17, 2015 Share June 17, 2015 I want a DR/SA/EBR commentary. I'm just trying to think of an episode that would work best for that and unfortunately there really aren't a lot of episode with a lot of the three of them. Maybe the crossover? JB would be hilarious. I actually think it would funny if he and EBR did The Fallen. EBR doesn't seem to bit her tongue talking about the sex scene. Her and JB had some great interaction in that episode. JB also mentioned EBR has a dirty sense of humor which I imagine would play off of him well. It wouldn't surprise me if we get one of the BC episodes. If they do Midnight City, I wonder if they would have KC/CH on it? Or KC/CL for Canaries? I'm not sure how entertaining that would be tho with KC's very serious approach to work (not a dig at all). Any commentary featuring DR/SA I feel would be their best bet. 2 Link to comment
wonderwall June 17, 2015 Share June 17, 2015 Okay so putting all of this in order (if none of you have noticed, I love making lists lmao), the commentaries I want are: SA/DR/EBR -- for either episode 1, 8, 19, 20, 23 SA/DR -- episode 1, 3, 15, 21 (because I want DR to tell SA "I trusted you man") EBR/JB -- episode 10, 20 EBR -- episode 5, 18 CH/SA -- episode 17 (because I want to hear SA apologize to CH for leaving him there) Basically anyone but KC, sorry, but neh. 4 Link to comment

SmallScreenDiva June 18, 2015 Share June 18, 2015 (edited) You'd think they would release Emily and Stephen. Now that would get sales alone. Unfortunately, no chem test because EBR was supposed to be a two-scene/1 ep guest star. I wonder what the contingents were for EBR and GG's chemistry test. Surely they wouldn't have made a casting decision for the The Flash based on chemistry with a character dedicated to another show. Perhaps it was used to determine how he might fit with the Arrow characters during his short guest stint, with the hope that he might seem like a potential romantic rival? If that's the case, it would lend credence to Olicity having been an intentional and methodically planned couple for quite a while. I've wondered about this, too. Maybe the contingency plan was to have Barry stay on a little longer as a love interest for Felicity if The Flash didn't get the greenlight? Because you're right, it would be odd if the hiring of the lead actor for a spinoff depends on his chemistry with an actress from a different show. I'm guessing it's more about story lines. If there was no romantic chemistry between GG and EBR, maybe they would have gone with a "just friends" route with them? They tested SA and CL and they also did EBR and BR because the show meant to pursue romantic story lines for them. (BTW, does anybody know if GG tested with Candice and Danielle? I keep seeing posts that say they weren't and that's odd.) Yeah, the fact that they even had a chemistry read with EBR was strange to me, unless they were counting on people liking Barry enough to want a spin-off, but The Flash was already green lit at that point, wasn't it? I think The Flash was given the green light after 208 and 209. The backdoor pilot for later in the season was scrapped after Barry's visit got such a positive response.

Morrigan2575 June 18, 2015 Share June 18, 2015 Isn't there a huge issue with the AL All Star Lineup potentially being all Blue Jays? Donaldson maybe deserving but i don't get this push to have another Blue Jay on the team, especially when he made the All Star team last year. I get that he's a Blue Jays fan but I really don't like the idea of him getting Arrow fans (who don't watch baseball) voting for Donaldson simply because they have a thing for SA. As a sports fan, that bugs me. 2 Link to comment
Morrigan2575 June 18, 2015 Share June 18, 2015 (edited) I think they just learned from their mistake with SA/KC. They've apparently done chem tests for almost every other couple/potential couple. I know they Chem Tested, SA/CL, CL/KL, EBR/GG, EBR/BR, SA/CJ (I think) and I've heard that GG/CP had a chem test as well. Ironically they did not (to my knowledge) Chem test KC/JRR which seems dumb since he was supposed to be her love interest in S3...guess they really didn't care that much about the story since, no chem test and they didn't even bother trying to lock the guy down or work with the other studio on scheduling. I think The Flash was given the green light after 208 and 209. The backdoor pilot for later in the season was scrapped after Barry's visit got such a positive response. The Network decided to give The Flash a full Pilot after seeing an early screening of 208, the announcement came on 11/18/13 which was before 207 aired. I'm guessing the actual decision to go full pilot came even earlier. Edited June 18, 2015 by Morrigan2575 1 Link to comment
