I've seen shit you people wouldn't believe. Cop cars on fire off the shoulder of I-94. I watched search lights glitter in the dark near the Ambassador Bridge. All those moments will be lost in time, like piss in the drain. Time to retch.

So Brandon Routh is playing Ray Palmer and (a) Superman, but you know what would make me mark out on a whole new level?

If he also gets to play Ted Kord, the Blue Beetle, as was originally intended for Season 3 of Arrow. And hey, Blue Beetle was featured prominently in the original Crisis on Infinite Earths!

He's making network money in This Is Us and he's spoken unfavorably about his Smallville time so I'm doubtful he'll show up.

Man, wasn't there a theory in the Smallville fandom that Chloe would actually turn out to be Lois or something dumb like that? That would have been awkward.

I think the thought in the early seasons was that Lois was going to end up being a pseudonym she used for her writing. They did an episode early on where she met Perry, played by husband-of-Annette-O'Toole Michael McKean, that seemed to be setting it up. In the end they did the same thing as Felicity and just made her an off-brand Oracle. (And I think Dr Fate eventually?)

I could have sworn she actually used the name, or at least, explicitly showed that she might. IIRC wasn't it like one season before they actually added Lois? It's pretty much where the rumor came from. It wasn't some dumb fan speculation, I thought they specifically made it a plot point that they quickly dropped.

Yeah she used the name Lois Lane as a pseudonym in an early season.

I don't know if the show had established that Lois was her cousin at that point or if it actually was a thing where they were considering making Chloe into her though.

Season 8 of The CW's Arrow will host a backdoor pilot to a spinoff series centered on a new Green Arrow (Mia Smoak) and The Canaries (Laurel Lance and Dinah Drake). This news comes not long after CW President Mark Pedowitz revealed the network was looking to adapt a new DC property for 2020/2021.

x-post from the Arrow thread:

Rosenbaum has said that yes, he was asked but he turned it down.

quote:

“I’ll just be straight up about this,” the actor wrote, addressing fans of the show. “WB called my agents Friday afternoon when I was in Florida visiting my grandfather in a nursing home. Their offer: No script. No idea what I’m doing. No idea when I’m shooting. Basically no money.”

“And the real kick in the rear end,” he continued “‘We have to know now.’ My simple answer was ‘Pass.’ I think you can understand why.”

It was a flash forward story last season, so I'd assume the new show would continue to be Arrow Beyond.

Yeah, last season had flash forwards and dealt with grown up William coming back to Star City after 21 years where he ran into characters in old people make up like Roy, Dinah, Renee's grown up daughter, Renee in a bad wig doing a white people voice, Conor Hawke (who is Diggle's adopted son) and a new character called "Blackstar" who was revealed to be Mia Smoke.

Edit: Also there's a whole thing about John Jr becoming the leader of a Deathstroke gang.
