Arrow - More friggin' filler. Crap villain, crap logic, flashbacks that were always somewhat annoying not even going anywhere... There's no excuse for these insults, if you wanna do crossovers or launch something new, don't mess up months of work!

David Hasselhoff Knows How To Bring Back 'Knight Rider'
http://sciencefiction.com/2016/03/29/da ... ght-rider/

It's not a horrific idea so long as the Hoff isn't required to act or be in it for more than a few scenes ;)

Supergirl - considering how good this episode should have been, it was just really lazy and cheesey. Up until recently this show was pretty much a KO every week, but now it's just half-assed. I hope it gets back on track cos it's been the kitchen sink these last few episodes.

Gotham - I never thought an episode of Gotham would be better than Supergirl but there you go... Again, a focused episode like the good few on it's return. I just wish they'd decide what decade it's set in before some antique dealer starts questioning their eyesight and reality...

There have been several bites at the KR cherry - Knight Rider 2000 (which I recall was a pilot for a female-led series), Team Knight Rider (which was a generic 90s action series and bore little resemblance to the original series), Knight Rider 2010 (which was a generic B-grade sci fi/action flick set in a post apocalyptic world typical of 90s movies), and Knight Rider the 2008 series (which had poor writing to start with, way too many characters and didn't really improve until the retooling. It was still crap).

Flash - A perfect example of what can be done when nobody is worrying about crossovers etc. Good writing for the most part, deftly sets up what's coming next... There was a subtlety that's been lacking recently.

Arrow - Best episode in ages. Really funny and it was clearly a determined effort to be so. Again, little things were deftly set up. My only issue with this episode was they still had to crowbar in the flashbacks - the sooner this show ditches them altogether the better. Nobody gives a flying fcuk about the island any more. It reminds me of Lost in that sense!

SHIELD - A decent episode but so much of it was too on the nose. When it wasn't setting up Cap 3 it was stumbling around the terrorism issue so that the Cap stuff didn't stick out like a sore thumb.

Legends of Tomorrow - This show really needs to sort out it's time travel rules and many others. The whole thing is starting to feel 'ach, that'll do!'. And there was a really dumb moment with a list that wouldn't have appeared in a third rate comic.

Rush Hour - Not bad for a first episode, it's basically a TV repeat of the film. Funny, cheesey in a good way, it was a good start with all the clunky narrative reasoning dealt with quickly.

Some people loved that, others said it was the dullest show despite the premise.

There's some random crap going on with the US air dates of some of the superhero shows, even those on different networks. Supergirl and Flash aren't happening this week, but you get Arrow.

Then Supergirl is back next week, but no Arrow or Flash.

The week after you get Supergirl and Flash, but no Arrow... WTF?

Legends of Tomorrow carries on in... hope, or something. The writers aren't quite sure themselves, but they've got another season to figure it all out.

The problem is the books descended into absolute nonsense and an ending that made you wonder why you bothered at all.
