Just thought I would share this. With more and more DC TV shows on the way do you think some of the older shows should be axed to make way for the new ones or are you happy with most of the current ones staying? We are seeing the last of 'Gotham' next season so that is one going and I think if the 'Arrowverse' shows don't pick up they could scrap one of them.

Doubt they will get axed if they maintain their higher than network average numbers, unlike the DC Universe the CW shows aren't solely funded by WB but also CBS as the CW is a joint venture, no need to axe one of their shows unless it becomes financially unviable for the network to maintain it.

Heard about Veronica Mars from Fatman On Batman today, sounds good, I never watched the show though but they said she's a big proponent for the show so that's nice to hear about an actor or actress who loves what was her big career break even after achieving much higher success later on, and if it is coming back it's so much better it be because people love it especially those involved and not as a cash grab or out of desperation.

Not really my taste are kind of fluid, some of my all time favs though are DS9, BTVS, Angel, OF&H. Porridge, Spiderman:TAS, Smallville, Terminator TSCC, Yugioh*been binging on this lately*, The Originals *story is terrible but I love the cast*, Stargate, Dr Who *depending on the Doctor*, Daredevil, Sons Of Anarchy, Lucifer, Supernatural, Red Dwarf, Young Justice, Cheers, Psych.
Ones I will watch asap currently though are The Gifted, Flash, MacGyver, NCIS LA, Marvel Netflix, Lucifer, Chicago Med, Elementary, H50 & SEAL Team*love me some David Boreanaz*.
And there are still so many shows past and present I want to watch, Alias is a show I have seen bits and pieces of but I keep meaning to watch but don't get around to, GOT I only watched for the first time after the last season, kind of glad I did because I don't get all the hype for it, it's a great show for the most part but people gushing over it is a bit of a head scratcher for me, except for Tyrian I love Dinkleage, but then I also make the effort to go back and rewatch shows I have seen before which often is a mistake, Andromeda I did this to last and well the bad effects are so noticeable.

I also like Fatman on Batman. Yeah love me some Kev & Marc, Marc is so fucking smart and he often has opinions similar to my own but the dude is so much more eloquent than I am, he mirrored my feelings on the issue of could we have a black Batman almost spot on, and what I thought about SW is what he said I just never knew how to put it, they aren't great movies, but movies with great moments, as a whole though they are kind of bad story telling wise.
Also have you seen the thing Kevin posted recently about losing weight, I knew he was losing it but he hides it well enough on his shows but dude lost a lot of timber, now we just need to fatten Jason up so they can do Bizarro View Askew with Bob & Silent Jay.

You can really see how much he has lost if you look at a before and after picture. It's not always easy to notice otherwise because he tends to wear very baggy clothing which makes him look bigger.  Looking forward to the return of Jay and Silent Bob in Moose Jaws. |

That's not a good picture as I think the bigger one is during his "too fat to fly" phase, and the slimmer is him even before the heart attack, maybe around 2016 when he did Yoga Hosers because of the lack of beard if I were to guess.
This is of him from last year I think 
This is from this year
The pics he posted of himself now is incredible, he's even comfortable enough showing off his forearms, seems silly but for him that's a feat in and of itself due to his own image issues.

The internet lied to me!
Thanks for the correction. And you are right. It is incredible. He looks great!

It is awesome news. I think it is fantastic it is coming back and I don't know if you watched 'Alias' but that is one show that I absolutely loved and would love to see come back for a movie or a limited TV series. Jennifer Garner, Michael Vartan, Rachel Nichols, Kevin Weisman, Carl Lumbly, David Anders and Greg Grunberg to name a few have all said they would love to do it one last time and even the writers are on board but nobody will do it unless JJ Abrams is involved and he has told fans he would be open to doing it but is very busy with other things and needs to find time. I think having another season of 'Alias' as a limited season like they did with '24: Live Another Day' could work. By the way, what are your favourite shows Dazz? Do you have a top 10? I love Alias and would love to see it come back, but like dazz said, there are SO many shows past and present that I'm trying to see that I will be busy for a long time to come with or without an Alias revival.  |

You need to watch Red Dwarf. It's a BBC space comedy, which means a)it's smegging brilliant and b) even though it's been on for 30 years/12 seasons(series) they've only made about 73 episodes.
You also need to watch Doctor Who. And Star Trek Deep Space Nine. And Quantum Leap.
And Sliders

OF&H is Only Fools & Horses it's a 80's/90's brit sitcom starring David Jason as the most awesome character ever devised, Del Boy aka Derrick Trotter, Porridge is a 70's sitcom featuring Ronnie Barker as Norman Stanley Fletcher a career criminal banged up for 5 years in Slade prison and the routines within, also features Richard Beckinsale Kate Beckinsales father as Godber, Fletcher's first time offender bunk mate, some of the character in this are hilarious such as the screws Mr MacKay and Mr Barrowclough, MacKay is a miserable Scottish hard arse who hates the inmates as is regimental as all fuck, he's Fletch's go to adversary in the show and their interactions are hilarious, they also did a spin off/continuation show called Going Straight featuring Godber & Fletch after they get out with Godber marrying Fletch's daughter, which only lasted 1 season due to Richard Beckinsale passing away otherwise they were going to do a 2nd series or return to Porridge with the father & son in laws getting into bother and getting banged back up, sadly it wasn't to be.
Both of those are great comedies to watch Porridge & Going Straight are only 27 & a movie in total, so if you get a chance give it a try it's an easy binge for a weekend, OF&H is a little longer as they went 7 series and like 80 episodes, half of which are typical 30 minute sitcoms the other 40 are hour to 90 minute long TV movies/specials, but their still hilarious including Del & Rodney dressed up as Adam West's Batman & Robin with the theme backing their appearance and accidentally chasing off muggers in one of the later 90's episodes, for me the 1st season is a bit dull but it basically sets up and introduces most of the core characters through the shows run if not on screen atleast by name, but S2 on is where the show picks up the pace and is one of the best sitcoms ever dreamt of imo, so again you should check it out.

I saw Peppermint last weekend. It's pretty good, not great. Jennifer is really good in it and I hope she does more action stuff too. Didn't Cooper'e character die in Alias? It's been so long I can't remember. |

Bradley Cooper was on Alias? Huh. Neat. Maybe I should get around to watching that show some day.
