I don't get this show anymore

And nobody is a bigger defender than me

I don't know what happened

Its lost its center, its unstable

And there is absolutely no reason for this.

Only thing i can say..

They just doing TOO MUCH.

Crisis was a wonderful opportunity to reboot, they squandered

it's funny how we all have different opinions of these shows. I think its pretty good, has a good mix of action, messages and still family oriented. It doesn't even get the same recognition as the other shows. The other day they showed a trailer for Stargirl and only mentioned that it was in the same world as Arrow, Supergirl, Flash, Legends and Batwoman. BL still gets treated like the stepchild. Me personally, this and supergirl are the best shows. Flash.....i can't take all that pep talk shit, the plot never moves, it's the same thing over and over. Arrow, after the spanish villain was gone, the show got boring to me. Supergirl is cool cause you get something different every week. Other than Lena still being upset, i have no problems with the show. Batwoman is just meh, i don't hate it or love. Legends is just something to watch, can't really complain about it.

fair assessment

I'm very happy Supergirl getting love

cause for a minute every week the same complaint it was a "gay" show, I think it has become MUCH more than that.

However I REALLY need some reporter SOMEWHERE to explain wtf they doing with Lena character

cause its dumb.

Finally just caught up.

This show is good and at times great

They have a solid roster of great actors

Its the writing.

I understand thinning the cast but i don't know how they decided who to cut.

Outside the family who has some of the best chemistry on tv...

Killing off Henderson was a mistake

The coma was kinda lazy but ok i guess

Lala and lady eve should have been given more and need to be always playing the background going forward

They need to merge the Lazarus pit with this show, Arrow, Flash etc.

They need to always keep Odell around

Gotham. Would have been a perfect opportunity to show batwoman in her civilian clothes just as a quick cameo to continue to merge the shows

Painkiller needs his own show or movie. DC better lock him up before Marvel snatches him.

Imagine a show with him and Diggle @fonzerrillii

Lighting is so beautiful and she KNOWS it. Favorite part of the show every week is just watching her move on her underwear.

Ok yeah besides his hair? I do not understand why you cast brandon. But the fact that he is the son of geo force prince of markovia and a original member of Batman and the Outsiders he is too important.

Tobias is fine they using him well

I appreciate they have such big ideas and aspirations each season for the limited budget. But i want them to concentrate more on integration with the Arrowverse.

Next season i want more magic

some old villians from Black Lightning past to show up

Lets TRAVEL

I wouldn't mind solo adventures either

But overall good job

The creators of Black Lightning was the two male judges talking.


Im finally caught up, I wish they didn't kill Henderson. I really enjoyed this season.

Wayne Brady did a good job playing Gravedigger.

I don't understand,why TV shows hold back the magic. They have no problem showing TV shows with advanced technology for scifi but magic is a no no.

Man I tried with this show. I really did. Got the vibe they were going for Color purple mixed with some comic book shit and I was willing to let it slide.

Then they said some shit about vaccines causing the illness in kids and I was fucking done.

Tired of people being so damn stupid. Shit is frustrating.

The young daughter needs to go.

Every female in his life needs to go! The mom sits high and mighty about people with powers and then gets addicted to the drug that is killing people. Those daughters, he spends so much time getting them out of the messes that they create, that they're worse than the villains in this show.

I’m just starting on S1E2 and was thinking it was me and this’s one of the corniest shows ever. Checking out this thread leads me to spend a bit more time since I just caught all the Last Kingdom epis and the Rona got me trapped. Uh oh I see the older daughter is a les with a fine partner.

Okay. I had to adjust my thinking, coming from The Last Kingdom. It's a comic book and I need to think of it as that and not the real world. That albino muhfuhkah needs some attitude adjustment too. I'm into it at least through S1.

It’s a good series, not the best, but it’s better than nothing.

It’s a good show to watch with the family.

Hopefully next season they have the characters interact with the other CW characters other than what they do with the crossover week.

Tobias is my favorite character. Dude cracks me up with the one liners when he talks about Black folks. Somebody needs to do a video putting all his one-liners together.

Wife and I just started watching this and my main takeaway is...damn Nafessa Williams is a bad bitch! I’d blow Skye Marshall phat ass back out too.

A lot of this is pretty corny to me, but still entertaining. Love the mostly black cast. Gonna defiantly binge through the 3 seasons on Netflix.
