Very much not into Black Lightning using a dude as a human shield, but otherwise looks pretty fun!

Looks pretty cool, so since it's a CW show, we can expect crossovers with The Flash, Arrow, Supergirl and Legends of tomorrow right?

The DC TV folks have denied the idea of any crossovers right now, and are currently saying the same things about Black Lightning as they were about Supergirl about said crossovers: "there won't be any crossovers" and "it's in a separate universe", etc.

Buuuuuuuuut we all know how that worked out for Supergirl. The only real complicating factor is that Black Lightning is shooting in Atlanta, while all the other DC shows on The CW shoot in Vancouver, which makes crossovers much much easier to pull off; of course, season one of Supergirl shot in LA, but still managed to have the Flash guest star on an episode. The different filming locations would probably make it difficult for Black Lightning to take place in those big 4-part crossovers between all the currently airing DC shows, but it wouldn't stop a few characters from Black Lightning from appearing in said 4-part crossovers. They just wouldn't be able to do the kinds of crossovers where you have nearly of of the casts from all the various shows interacting with eachother, it's just too much of a logistical headache.

The latest season finales were a bit depressing & shocking.
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty

Some of these last minute scenes in the finales set up the next threat for the future properly. Others leave you hanging until the next season. My only hope is that while the villains may have won the war (and paid for their sins), the heroes learn from these senseless mistakes that they made from their respective seasons.

"Metropolis" series coming late 2019 on the upcoming DC streaming service, a "prequel to Superman", about Lois and Lex Luthor... by the Gotham people. Interest killed.
If I struggled to the end of my determination, to the end of my way of life with my followers, if the result is ruin, then this ruin is inevitable. Grieve. Shed tears. But you cannot regret.

This sounds like a sequel to Smallville.

In spirit maybe, but not officially. Didn't Lex die in Smallville at some point ? Or did he come back ?
And then there's the fact that the Gotham people want to make Metropolis gritty, justifying that by pushing Clark/Superman out of the show (maybe with a few appearances here and there popping up from Texas) and focusing the story on Lex and Lois.

Lex made an appearance in the final episode of Snellville, resurrected with a noticeable bald cap

He made a good speech though, it was the one bright spot in that finale

I completely gave up on Arrow a while back but I kept an eye on Legends from time to time. And man, that finale completely sold me. Now that's how you really claim a definite identity for your show (after three seasons, about time). Move over Firestorm tragic drama, proto-Vixen romantic drama, we have the huge demon lord body-slammed into a heart-shaped explosion by a giant fluffy plush. Don't just have everyone tell the Legends how terrible and reckless they are for no reason, actually make something awesome dumb ! Maybe Constantine is what finally makes this whole TV universe stop taking itself too seriously. (shagging Sarah in the toilets of a mental asylum was a nice start)

So mature.
Raven goes from comic book goth to plain dumb "leaky ink" goth.

We all see these things. They aren't permanent. Watch! The next season will probably have more comic book accurate costumes.

I've said this on Twitter, but it's hasn't been said here...

The original Teen Titans cartoon is the middle ground on the scale here. It's what everyone knows and remembers... Teen Titans Go! is when you take the scale towards a more goofier aspect. You still have action based moments, but 75% of the show is humor based. It should also be noted that Go! wasn't intended for the original fan base of the older cartoon... it was aimed at the younger generation.

Titans is when you take the scale in the completely opposite direction. It's a world of grim dark crap with Robin, of all people, using the 'F' bomb and Starfire actually fire based powers and melting people... look, I get the feeling that this series would cause far more alienation to the old fan base then Go! ever could.
