I like superheroes fighting supervillains and it delivers on that and I'm really excited to see the Rogues in live action.

The Flash has good powers and it's cool to see how technology has allowed live-action television to finally pull off comic book stories that were only do-able with animation until now.

Plus the guy who plays Lt. West is really good and same for the guy who plays Captain Cold and Barry is really endearing and goofy, so I can tolerate a lot of the cheesy writing and corny poo poo.

fair enough. i really loving hate superhero stuff, which is why i can stomach gotham probably

Flash's writing is better than Gotham's.

EDIT: Ha ha that's awesome Alfred just teaches Batman to punch people

I think I'll watch the show for Doctor Who Jr training Batman

its almost as if setting a show ten years before the interesting part of the story is a bad idea

the "interesting" part where an invincible guy fights a bunch of other invincible guys and if somebody dies it doesn't last more than a month

Batman's whole gimmick is that he's not the invincible guy though. At least not in the usual superhero "I have special powers" sense, the guy's got serious plot armor of course. They pretty much never shut up about how he's a regular guy with gadgets.

hannibal is an amazing show because it manages to use creepy failfag tumblr deviantart fanservice to make the show more unsettling and weird and essentially more gooder

why do supervillains even need corny-rear end pseudonyms?

what am I supposed to believe that harvey dent is carrying on a normal life as a massively scarred district attorney while this mysterious two-faced fella is running around terrorising poo poo? or that the joker has a family he needs to protect from violent superhero reprisals?

That Alfred clip was pretty cool though.

Get your shit together, and put it in a backpack, all your shit, so it's together. And if you gotta take it somewhere, take it somewhere. You know? Take it to the shit store and sell it. Or put it in a shit museum, I don't care what you do, you just gotta get it together.
Get your shit together.
i feel like this ought to be photoshopped somehow, but i don't know what to add to it....

Catwoman sort of does the secret identity thing in some versions of the story, but I think most of the villains just gave themselves weird names because they're batshit crazy.

The good thing is that everyone around you has more critical failures in combat, the bad thing is - so do you!

On the last episode after binging all day, I've concluded that the show is bad but maybe not as bad as I thought so I guess maybe the truth is in the middle.

Plenty if real life notorious criminals have silly nicknames too. See: the unibomber, Johnny bananas, the Iceman, Whitey Bulger, baby face nelson, etc
