That's a shame Monkey Man. I get why though.

I read and look at the stuff but don't post much.

I thought Batwoman was a fair pilot but I'm not sure why they made Luke Fox a nerd. That has to be one of the worst Batman costumes ever though.

Currently catching up with the latest seasons of Arrow and The Flash after giving up on acquiring them via legally grey methods and buying them on Amazon video.

Was going to do the same with Legends of Tomorrow but don't really like it enough to warrant paying for the privilege.

Just want to say thanks Monkeyman, always love the work you put in to this thread.

Not had a lot of time recently to check out any of the new shows this season.
Is there any that have started really strongly?

Thanks to you and Pedz for your kind words.

Unbelievable on Netflix and Undone on Amazon have been the only good shows. Stumptown and Emergence have been ok but very generic.

Going forward until the end of the year I have some hope for Limetown, Treadstone, Watchmen, Daybreak and The Mandolorian.

Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Television and Tom Hanks and Gary Goetzman’s Playtone have made a deal with Apple for an event limited series based on the Donald L. Miller book Masters of the Air: America’s Bomber Boys Who Fought the Air War Against Nazi Germany. It is a follow-up to their Emmy-winning World War II HBO miniseries Band of Brothers and The Pacific.

The book tells the story of the American bomber boys in WWII who brought the war to Hitler’s doorstep. It becomes the first series greenlit with Apple serving as the studio as the company is joining major streamers like Netflix and Amazon, which also produce and own content. Deadline hears that the miniseries will be more than eight hours in length, and that it will cost well north of $200 million to produce.

Anyone else Batwomaning? It's solid B tier (at best) but I'm really liking it.

Both Arrow and The Flash are the same, the acting is pretty poor and the plot is all over the place yet they're oddly enjoyable.

I've downloaded the first two episodes (not watched yet) but can't download anything else until I get my Usenet access sorted out (went to renew my 1TB data allowance only to discover they no longer accept Paypal and haven't been able to find another provider that offers a similar service that accepts Paypal).

And now...Superman!
