I really agree with on this Luke and Ryan dynamic ....

You don't see shows with a Black Man in the Chair and a Black Superhero lead.

There dynamic really fucking works...

Also... I hope Luke and Mary hookup...

These three have fantastic chemistry ...

ALL THIS!!!!!

On episode 4...

Man this is working way way better then I thought... It just feels different. Writing has more weight behind it... Like they are trying to make Batwoman feel like a Earned thing.

Ryan NOT telling them about the kryptonite injury IMMEDIATELY was very problematic for me.

See I was with you completely until this line..

Legends can last forever...... It's pure Comedy gold.

I'm not saying that they don't have fun moments... but if the CW can put action scenes together like they did for Superman and Lois... ALL the shows need to get down like that.

But compared to Arrow, The Flash, Season 3 of Black Lighting... Legends need to be at least that.

Yes I am. The Flash is pretty good, but I know they can do better and I think the writers will. Besides I can look at Candice Patton all day...
she is nice to look at, but the pep talks in that show kill it for me. and sometimes it feels like the story is not advancing.

Legends works being legends... There is nothing else like it on TV right now. They have this nice sweet spot that works.

5 episodes in and I swear this Season is Night and Day... This is what the show should have been from the beginning.

Like Mary seems more of a Sister in 5 episodes with Ryan then she did all last season with Kate and supposedly they grew up together..


Like Luke, Ryan, and Mary seem like they have been working together for years...

They have completely sucked me in.

I don't want them to get rid of Sophie just cause i love looking at Meagan Tandy, make Luke become the batwing and have her be his contact

OK I cannot believe you were the first one to say it

Ruby looked MISERABLE in comparison.

There is this NATURAL tension the early episodes within this NEW team dynamic

Ryan is not the BEST actress either

but unlike Ruby its like she is USING any weakness she has as a POSITIVE

The awkwardness and uncomfortable moments and finding the rhythm actually WORKS in the scenes

and you see later she got that rhythm down now is a natural evolution

Very brother sister with Luke there is NOTHING like that on TV right now

and even the way she works off Sophie (there is a tension there I don't know if in REAL LIFE she feels threatened by a new actress on the show or these two black women ALREADY got a chemistry they formulating between Sophie and the NEW Batwoman.

I like what they doing. salute to the new showrunner

It STILL aint perfect....

they gotta tighten up a lot of stuff but this has HUGE potential

You know what...

that might be one of my favorite versions of him... Glad he isn't dead

Who would have thought THAT GUY would be one of the most popular Batman villains in modern media?

I do not think there has been ANY modern interpretation of Batman did NOT include Victor

I'm talking animation, video games , movie , TV and comics!

UPDATE

StreetsOfGotham4.jpg


Danny Jacobs has voiced him in the Batman: Arkham video game franchise

Anthony Carrigan portrayed Victor Zsasz on the live-action television series Gotham.[5][6]

Alex Morf portrayed Zsasz in the second season of the Arrowverse series Batwoman,

Tim Booth portrayed Zsasz in the film Batman Begins (2005) and

Chris Messina portrayed Zsasz in the DC Extended Universe film Birds of Prey (2020)

So that's video game, TV, two movies and animation and comics

WOW

I don't think she is that bad..... Right now I think she is playing the role of .... I'm still just a fill in for Batwoman so I can't be completely myself yet.

Personally... I'm cool if she doesn't have anything with Sophie. That would be odd to have this woman who works for the crows who has been questioning me for years for shit that I didn't do... just because of my record and where I stay...

To now all of a sudden have a thing for me because I'm batwoman.

To me.. their earlier scenes are like Sophie being like Atlanta Black compared to Ryan being like Memphis black. Oil and Water... two versions of black women who have been raised with two different types of upbringing

and you know what... I can fucks with that..

It's definitely something that I have NEVER seen on a superhero show.

You need to tweet this to the showrunner so they can blow it out print it up poster size and hang it up in the writer's room.

Realize they dropping Victor and Wolf Spider, Jack Napier...

they are NOT f*cking around

and so far all of the characters have been PERFECTLY used.

sidebar..

VERY VERY sad they were never able to connect Black Lightning properly to all this.

Especially now

After the first season... Black Lightning just stopped working for me. The dialogue and the acting just became horrendous .... And you already know the issues I had with that gawd damn theme song.

This is show is MUCH better and in a weird way Covid might have helped

longer scenes with just 2 or 3 actors more closed off intimate FASTER.

the writing is getting a little predictable again...

don;t need the villain to give the origin story speech EVERY SINGLE TIME

and I get why, but I feel like yo can make the connections later, make them be DETECTIVES to not just great at Google.

Yo the NEW Batwoman can ACT

REALLY act.

Every episode I see more confidence and her making the character her own

and like I was telling Fonz WB BETTER NOT MESS UP the Luke Ryan dynamic

it got potential to be genre defining.
