Show has been renewed for season 2 "Only on CW" So with this... Doom Patrol being on HBO Max, and HQ seasons going there shortly.... will they finally pull the plug on DC UNiverse as a streaming service? They also just cancelled DC Daily, which was running for what felt like ages. They're definitely cleaning house at DC. I think DiDio's firing was the beginning.

I was just about to make a thread about this, but I f***ing love Stargirl, the dynamic with Courtney and Pat is fantastic, but, honestly, my favourite character has to be Sportsmaster, what I like is that he's not one of these villains who puts on an act of affability, he seems like a dude who's genuinely friendly and cheerful, but he just happens to be a seriously dangerous fighter. Between this and Young Justice, it's pretty damn awesome how a character named Sportsmaster has been made interesting.

I was starting to complain about a lack of character for a couple people and then BAM massive character level ups in Shiv pt 1 lol

Tonight's episode was a damn good one. And also a damn sad one. {Spoiler}Killing Henry Jr. was something I didn't expect at all, since you figured he'd either succeed his father in this new ISA or get his redemption story and join Stargirl and the new JSA. Last week's episode left open both possibilities. And man do I feel bad for Courtney, learning she likely had a cousin and a blood tie to the man she thinks is her father, only to watch him die at the hands of his own father.
All identities are pretty much out in the open now and it looks like more members of the Seven Soldiers are showing up like Shining Knight. Really damn curious to see how the first season resolves itself, and how the second season will continue Courtney and the new JSA's storyline.

She's so sure of it, that it's setting up for a reveal that her father is a villain. Also, it's setting up her ultimate approval of Pat. Barb first tried to tell Courtney that Pat was a good man, and a good father. Rick and Yolanda both have home lives that aren't that great, so they'd be damn thankful if Pat was their step-father. They're gonna help get Court to realize something. Her father will fight against the JSA, and tell Court to listen to her father, and she'll respond by saying something to the effect of "Pat's my father."

I know a lot of people hate on it, but I really like it a lot.

Bumping this because it’s on Amazon Prime and we’ve finally gotten around to watching it in the household and, man, I didn’t expect to be the show that stands out compared to the other CW DC shows. It’s way more engaging than I expected it to be.

Eh, I could see a scenario like Picard where they have Amazon foot the bill to keep it as an international exclusive. But then I don’t know how that stuff works.

Yeah, the finale stuck the landing. This show is good stuff.
Hopefully not much is lost in the CW transition. All the better if somehow Amazon could fund it.

Finally watched this and man, what a good show. Great cast and cleary has a decent budget.
All the characters were really likeable. Pat was especially great.
The villains were good too with Icicle being the obvious standout.
I was really excited for season 2 and then found out it's going to the cw which really worries me. CW is well known for atrocious love stories, which this was completely free of, and it's also known for slashing budgets which would really hurt this show because it looks really cool right now. I'm worried we'll get less Amy Smart and Luke Wilson and I can't imagine S.T.R.I.P.E would look great.
The only thing that is giving me hope is that the original team is still working on this. Geoff Johns will not let CW f*** this up so as long as he's still in charge, I have hope it will stay good.

Geoff Johns is not going to let CW mess around with a show based on a character made in honor of his dead sister.

I will be pleasently surprised if this show doesn't have its budget cut in half this season....seeing far less S.T.R.I.P.E is gonna be an obvious telling indicator of that.
Between Flash , Superman and Lois this and legends , Supergirl and Black Lightnings final seasons oh CW is gonna be cutting the corners off of something because that is alot of special effects to go around more so than anytime before when they only had to worrie about Flash being their only special effects heavy show.

I wonder what the budget is like now because Eclipso there looks too good to just be made on a CW budget.

Keep saying it'd likely depend on how much Amazon are paying for it to be an Original internationally. Could be like Netflix and Amazon with the Star Trek shows in that they're funding the entire production budgets.
