    It jumped the shark before that. We quit after Lana got spinny kung fu superpowers.

    I have a simple four step program that will solve your problems!
     
    Step 1: Create a new profile on Netflix.
    Step 2: Watch Luke Cage on that profile.
    Step 3: Delete that profile.
    Step 4: Watch it with daughter on your normal profile, and act surprised at the right time.

    More fun = more good, and Greatest American Hero was a lot of fun.

    Gotcha. No pronlemo.
     
    Looks like Luke Cage broke Netflix a bit yesterday. I contributed with five episodes worth. Good stuff so far, very good. Great casting on this one, IMO, both on major and all the supporting characters. I think Netflix Marvel is probably the best live action supers franchise going at the moment. (I count Marvel as three franchises: Netflix, AoS, and the movies, since none of them interact in any meaningful way.)

    Which is what I said: Not anyone would react the same way. Tony, who has been shown to a) be emotionally unstable and b>  to be under growing levels of stress, would. Because they've developed his character that way. It's within genre tropes, sure. I was only responding to the assertion that anyone would react the same way.

    Comics can suck too, and most of them do. It's like we're criticizing the shows for not living up to the very best of comics' potential, while ignoring the vast amount of mediocre to laughable material that makes up about 95% of comics ever published.
     
    I watched all of the  CW/Berlanti shows, Agents of SHIELD, and even Lucifer last season. (And previous seasons for the older shows.) They all had some good points and some bad. Some of the shows with the worst bad points were also some of the most comic book-like shows, and I appreciated the attempt to embrace the genre, even when the plot induced stupidity was making me facepalm so hard that I risked concussing myself.

    I'm OK with villains dying in the Marvel movies, as long as the heroes lose all their Karma.

    I just watched CW again and honestly I feel like you saw a totally different movie than I did.

    Skurge is about three Urbans wide. So, nobody can realistically pull off the physique. I'm more concerned that he doesn't have the pointy hair strips on top. I mean, that's classic Skurge.

    Wait. Were they de-powered? So the water would have given them hypothermia within minutes. I guess that really was at worst.
