Of course he was. They'd revoke his Australian citizenship if they found out he was out sober at 5 a.m.

What's up with that dude? I google his name to try and figure out the joke and he's apparently raging at Dr. Phil.

I am totally fine with super powered villains. Makes Arrow seem even cooler when he can fight them without powers

Arrow had to move into the super powered villain territory this season. Last season, Ollie was trained by, and eventually beat R'as. A big bad without powers is no longer a threat.

Also Ollie is now finally THE Green Arrow, not the vigilante or the hood or The Arrow, so it makes sense that the villains take a similar bump in power level.

All I got from that article is that the CW is making a live-action Archie show. It's official isn't it? We have no more ideas left and TV executives are nothing better than dice rolling robots from Futurama.

It depends, are we getting regular Archie or crazy Predator fighting, zombie battling Archie?

I've heard its going to have strange elements because of the success of 'Afterlife with Archie'. Probably no predator / punisher action though.

My name is Archie Andrews, once I was an ordinary high school boy. I studied hard, I chased girls, I had it all. But then aliens invaded Riverdale. In order to fight them off and save my city I had to become something else. I had to become someone else.

I have to say that Archie Predator was utterly fantastic in ways that few crossovers are. It even worked in a Punisher cameo!

Afterlife with Archie is pretty amazing, but I have no idea what they might adapt from it besides the heavier and darker tones and I have low expectations on how it'll turn out.

I haven't, either. I hear that it's good. I'll probably watch it when it hits Netflix.

iZombie is very good. It has an extremely strong first season, but it helped that it was only 13 tightly-written episodes rather than stretched out to 22.

Half the posters in this forum have been made up. This website is a goddamn ghost town.
I'd check it out if Hulu would put up the whole season. For some shows they keep all the episodes up, but for other shows they do the last 5 thing, and that doesn't seem to me to be good way to pull in new viewers.

If you liked Veronica Mars, you'll probably like iZombie. Sad that a good show like that had to get stuck with that title when it doesn't even share a single character in common with the comic it's based on.

The Riverdale series, according to showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, is going to be less like Buffy or Afterlife With Archie and more like Twin Peaks, with hidden darkness brewing at the fringes of small-town America.
