Smallville will never get Batman because WB won't allow it. Same for Wonder Woman and Green Lantern. They are movie franchise properties. I personally don't mind B grade heroes or even C grade heroes for that matter. As long as it someone interesting. And heck, I loved The Wonder Twins from their Super Friends heydey when I was growing up so I'm pretty excited about it personally.
I agree with TIME, of all the DC B, C, D, even F grade heros they pick the Twins. Yeah they were cute for the cartoon back when, and maybe they won't turn out as bad we most think they will. And I can understand why they can't/won't use the big players in the tv show, but why not use the Hawks, or instead of bringing in new heros add other villians. Its been awhile since i watched, but i remember the 90's Flash tv show did a good job (for the 90's) of using the Flash's villians.
They should have given fans a list of characters who can appear on the show and let them decided who they want.
Hawkman is coming up soon with Wonder Girl and... someone else. Like Page said, The other big three will never show up. GL has a new movie coming up and they won't touch, WW or Bats either. It's just not going to happen. Smallville was first pitched as Gotham. After Smallville ends I really hope they go back to the Gotham idea. A spin off of with GA would be fun and keep the other DC'ers coming. I'm glad that the "Graysons" didn't happen last year, that would have been lame. If you haven't watched the Aquaman premiere yet, you can download it on Itunes. It was good, but Jason became GA and won't go back to that ever, it's too bad. I liked that show a lot.
What's next? Who knows. But, I am and will be a fan.
In all the news, I somehow missed that Allison Scagliotti was playing Jayna. Whether the concept works or not, she's a great actress. I love her current run on Warehouse 13 and (yes, I admit I watched it) she was funny on Drake & Josh. That alone might make it enough for me to give this the benefit of the doubt....
I haven't watched this show in years! Have they finally done a Batman episode? Let's be honest here, everybody's waiting for them to do a Batman episode. Bruce Wayne in his pre-Batman days would be so intriquing to watch.
I'm amazed I still look at this show, I fell asleep in the season premiere, yes Asleep, for real! But somehow I keep coming back to see if it's gotten better! Argh! The plots are so sucky & each week it's like groundhog day all over again, they've changed the mythology so much why don't they just go all the way with it instead of backing out at the last minute, man that's frustrating!!! I really hope they put this down after this season, this old dog is getting really stinky.
The Wonder Twins? Really? Out of the whole D.C. comic universe, Smallville goes with them?
Not Batman? Wonder Woman? A Green Lantern?
Oh, well, what will Green Arrow-Ville think of next?
