I'm enjoying S3 of Daredevil for the most part but it seems to confuse "slow burn" for "smart TV". Making something plodding and tedious and have a freaking 25 minute flashback doesn't make something "smart".

I havent started DDS2 yet, but it blows my mind that so far out of all the Netflix Marvel shows, Iron Fist S2 was the only one I didn't wish had been shorter. I was expecting it to be 13 episodes like the rest, and when I watched the end of episode 10 I was super pumped for three more episodes of that.

Lex always goes on about human potential and pushing yourself or some other boot straps bullshit. Trump can't think about anything that isn't Trump based. Lex doesn't need to be loved, Trump has a sociopathic need to be loved.

Anyway, I am powering through season 3 of Daredevil and I skipped all the spoilers pages ago but I just want to know if anyone else found the origin story for Poindexter to be one of the most boring episodes ever committed to film?

The Karen episode felt worse because of its placement, imo. Though it was probably "better".

Overall I really enjoyed S3 but I also really enjoyed S2, albeit slightly less (the ending was a wet fart.)

Yeah if we're talking "I wish this wasn't happening" that's gotta go to Karen. The rest of DDS3 really held up for me. For the most part, I think Netflix Marvel is pretty good. The only one I have an out and out negative feeling toward is JJS2.

On a side note, has there been any rumblings on the next season of Cloak and Dagger? I really liked that one.

Another issue I have with the casting is that Cryer looks like he could be Lena's dad. I was kind of expecting someone in the age range of the rest of the cast.

Lena was adopted, so that could play into it

Prison ages you and/or while kryptonite is relatively safe for humans compared to kryptonians, continued exposure has negative effects and no one has spent as much time around kryptonite as Lex Luthor.

I'd say I deserve a no prize, but that's a Marvel thing.

Edit: I do wish it was the guy who played Luthor in Smallville though, he was the only person who seemed to give a drat in the entire show.

Have any Smallville actors been in Supergirl? I know they made a reference to Cloe once, but she's not going to actually be in the show since she's in jail for sex trafficking.

I'm sure that eventually more of the Smallville cast will pop up. Now that Welling has turned his lovely attitude around and patched things up with Rosenbaum he might get a shot at a guest appearance now.

Yes, Zod made a small appearance as a hallucination (played by Mark Gibbon.) Also he was cast on Krypton where he was played by Arrow vet Colin Salmon.
