The Starling Tribune Reporters SP, Chris and Michelle review the finale Arrow episode “Fadeout.” In this episode the reporters discuss all the goodness of the Arrow finale episode that was 8 years in the making, the final spectacular 3 minute non-stop fight scene, the changes Oliver made for those he loved and the entirety of Star City, the conclusions of character stories as well as what’s next for several characters in the Arrowverse, and how Emily Bett Rickard’s return to the show turned out. The reporters also reflect on the series as a whole and it’s place in the Arrowverse and the history of comicbook TV. The reporters also give their favorite memories of the Starling Tribune podcast, hear some great feedback from GonnaGeek Network owner Stephen and give a nod to all of the former Starling Tribune hosts.

The Starling Tribune Reporters SP, Chris and Michelle review the penultimate Arrow season 8 episode 9 “Green Arrow & The Canaries.” In this episode the reporters discuss if Oliver Queen’s Crisis sacrifice was honored appropriately in the timeline, ponder why Oliver chose to keep the Earth 2 Laurel, what Earth Prime timeframe is Laurel from in the episode, the awesomeness of two canaries cries back again, wonder when the Crisis effects are fully settled and who’s memories will get restored and who stays oblivious, ask if 2040 Star City is still part of the Arrowverse of 2020, note that cool women don’t look at explosives, admire the good stunt action in the episode, smile at the return of the Queen Mansion, their theories of who the main villain is in the episode, search their memories on any other follow on series with a 20 year time jump, their wishes for what a green lit Green Arrow and the Canaries series would look like, and how the reporters are taking the other CW Arrowverse shows post-Crisis.

Does she remember being Harbinger?  WHERE IS WALLY?????????????????  Where is Cisco and the others? Article cited at bottom states, “Maybe one day we will tell that story,” Guggenheim hedges, “but again, all of those actors need to be paid, and they need to be paid a crossover rate that is above and beyond their episodic rate. That forces us to make hard financial choices that unfortunately occasionally drive the creative choices.” • Roses o SP -  Never been done before over this many shows and this many episodes  o Chris  Combining earths opens some cool opportunities.  Justice League formation is awesome.  BEEBO! Everyone loves Beebo  Sara gets heavily featured and proven that as Captain she’s already a leader of people. Makes sense she would lead the group. Also continuous with a trend in DC where normal humans play a fundamental role in a team  Routh as Supes one more time. I literally cheered when i saw him in suit on screen again. o Michelle  OMG they combined all the current CW DC shows (Stargirl on her own Earth)  Sara in charge; given great moments: leading fight w/Beebo, heart-to-heart w/Barry; coordinating fight w/Anti-Monitor and shadow demons; speech to Anti-Monitor - For Oliver!  Surprise Flash cameo  Black Lightning part of Justice League. Also - Justice League! Hall of Heroes!  Kara happy Kate on same Earth during fight w/Beebo  Baby Sara!  Justice for Brandon Routh - amazing shot as Superman • Point of discussion - will you watch the other shows? • For reference: Crisis on Infinite Earths: Easter Eggs and References in Part Three (14 Jan 2020) https://comicbook.com/dc/2020/01/14/crisis-on-infinite-earths-spoilers-part-4-5-easter-eggs/#21 • 'Crisis on Infinite Earths' Burning Qs Answered!

Yes, I know we’ve discussed it before but I felt it needed to be mentioned again.The way the Flash cast just miraculously portals in Punctuates the separate episodes and not true continuous miniseries event Black Lightning just a bit more than a cameoIt would have been nice to see Oracle on Earth 203World’s Finest confrontation ...a bit old with Batman v SupermanWhy does Vibe live again when Cisco went through the whole arc of becoming non meta again? - I know,because plot and he was the only one to get through the treadmill force field. But….really? Chris Why isn’t Dig the Green Lantern yet?Spectre reveal kinda came out of nowhere Michelle  Still upset that we didn’t see Nash become Pariah or Lyla become Harbinger and why she ended up w/Anti-Monitor and as the Anti-MonitorIf Anti-Monitor could destroy all Earths at once, why not do so? (I know, because plot, but still)Oliver didn’t need to become the Spectre; Corrigan would’ve been great to see Roses SP -  All the cameos.John Wesley Shipp’s 90’s flash gets an endingDiggle’s issue about not being with Oliver - true to the charactersRouth’s Superman … again. Chris John Wesley Shipp is OG flash again! and we get an actual 90s flash flashbackBrandon Routh is still great. Can we give him a Superman show?Diggle and Oliver’s friendship is shown to be a big deal when he’s the one that pulls him out.Lex tricks everyone (keep in mind he sees himself as a hero normally). BUt bummed it's Routh Supes that is gone :(Kara and Kate conversation ends when Kara tells her to keep the kryptonite   Michelle  Lucifer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love Tom Ellis and the show. Maze is Mazikeen, loyal servant/friend of Lucifer’s; Constantine helped bring her out of Hell to Earth; there are rules preventing Lucifer from just bringing whoever he wants out of Hell; even Lucifer has to go back to Hell; visit is pre-TV showTreadmill from comics; a Flash has to die; flashback to Flash TV show (knew this was going to happen, still teared up anyway)Logical reason to bring in Black LightningDiggle brings back OliverStill loving Snart as the voice of the Waverider For reference: Crisis on Infinite Earths: Easter Eggs and References in Part Three (10 Dec 2019) https://comicbook.com/dc/2019/12/11/crisis-on-infinite-earths-part-3-easter-eggs/     ARROW NEWS:   CW Reveals When Arrow, Flash, Batwoman and More Return From Winter Hiatus (Date: 18 Dec 2019) Both Arrow and DC's Legends of Tomorrow will air on Jan. 14 to close out the Arrowverse's "Crisis on Infinite Earths".Official premiere dates: Batwoman: Jan. 19, 8 p.m.Supergirl: Jan. 19, 9 p.mBlack Lightning: Jan. 20, 9 p.m.Arrow: Jan. 21, 8 p.m.DC's Legends of Tomorrow: Jan. 21, 9 p.m.The Flash: Feb. 4, 8 p.m. https://www.cbr.com/cw-arrowverse-riverdale-black-lightning-midseason-premiere-dates/   CW ARROWVERSE NEWS:   The CW Renews 13 Series Including ‘Batwoman’, ‘Nancy Drew’, ‘The Flash’, ‘Riverdale’ & ‘All American’ (Date: 7 Jan 2020) The CW has ordered second seasons of Batwoman and Nancy Drew, along with renewing All American (Season 3), Black Lightning (Season 4), Charmed (Season 3), DC’S Legends of Tomorrow (Season 6), Dynasty (Season 4), The Flash (Season 7), In the Dark (Season 3), Legacies (Season 3), Riverdale (Season 5), Roswell, New Mexico (Season 3), and Supergirl (Season 6). https://deadline.com/2020/01/the-cw-renews-13-series-batwoman-nancy-drew-the-flash-riverdale-all-american-1202823557/ NEXT EPISODE   Link to Promo: https://comicbook.com/dc/2019/12/09/crisis-on-infinite-earths-spoilers-part-3-trailer-watch-online-the-flash/ (Date: 10 Dec 2019)    Episode: “Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part 4” [Arrow: Season 8 Episode 8] and “Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part 5” [Legends of Tomorrow: Season 5 Episode 0] Air Date: Tuesday, January 14, 2020 Summary: After their defeat in Crisis Part 3 at the hands of the Anti-Monitor, the 7 paragons must fight to bring back the multiverse.

Diggle at home with JJ?Yea I liked Leonard on the Earth-74 Waverider, but why not use the ACTUAL Waverider?The book of destiny - who can use it and who cannot? - Not exactly the same book as last crossoverEpic Superman v Superman fight destruction - they definitely need a glass repair service on Earth-96If the Monitor knew who the paragons were - why waste time sending them on their journey to Earth-99?  Chris Where Diggle? He should be here and be a potential voice of reason for not using a Lazarus PitIts a sendoff for Smallville but no Welling in suit Blue K theory? (doesn’t really matter now)I'm conflicted here it's a good sendoff to Clark. Part of his narrative in the show was that he wanted to me normal at times.  I think I built it up too much in my mind. But tbh I'm a bit salty we still never got Welling in the suit CG on the Super fight was a bit rough but TV budget so okayWhat’s up with Lyla? Is this going to be explained in the comic tie-in?Sidequest the episode.  Big stakes from part 1 aren’t really in play here Michelle  Tom Welling not in Superman suitLazarus Pit, really? The multiverse is ending; Barry spends a lot of time on side missionHarbinger’s going to Anti-Monitor really not explained Roses SP -  “Yea. I kind of promised my crew we’d never have to do another crossover”Jonathan crying and being passed off from person to person until Mick stops himWorld’s Finest Teamup to Earth-99. “Bat Of The Future”Lois has a thing for ALLSupermenLex Luther’s “Superfriends” comment to Earth-167 SupermanIt was fitting to have Batman in the Batwoman episodeSuperman v Superman fight was made better by two actors: Brandon Routh and Tyler HoechlinFor all the Legends Of Tomorrow side characters to be in Crisis, it was good to see Jonah HexEnd credit symbols are pretty cool  Chris Leo replaces GideonRouth is still a perfect Superman. This is the series they should be pursuing.  He is from Superman Returns via reference to his son Jason Kara eyes up Routh Supes gets told he’s her cousin by Superman prime was funRay and Supes trading quips on teh Waverider was funHaving not watched Cryer in Supergirl I don’t know what he was like previously but he nails it as LexKevin Conroy is batman even if its evil batman. they took my batman and put him in live action. Normally I complain about guggenheim and his need to defy expectations of fans. I actually liked it here. To many people Kevin Conroy is the definitive version of batman. One who never kills. To take this version and have him be a broken version similar to Dark Knight Returns Batman was not what I expected. And seeing Conroy pull off broken Batman both physically and mentally was quite the show. Teased me with Batman Beyond when referencing a Gotham from the futureSmallville Didn’t expect to get it.Like the nod to Lex as presidentWish there had been more Alternate earth Mick is still delightful as is his babysitting Michelle  Tom Welling!!!! Everyone noticing how buff he isLike the Kara/Constantine/Mia teamupKate and Kara develop relationshipCryer gets to be more Lex Luthor-y than on SupergirlKate has character development w/interaction w/BruceBrandon Routh gets to show the world why he’s a great Superman and deserves to take over from CavillEpisode made me like Superman again For reference: Crisis on Infinite Earths: Easter Eggs and References in Part Two (10 Dec 2019) https://comicbook.com/dc/2019/12/10/crisis-infinite-earths-part-2-easter-eggs/      ARROW NEWS:   CW Reveals When Arrow, Flash, Batwoman and More Return From Winter Hiatus (Date: 18 Dec 2019) Both Arrow and DC's Legends of Tomorrow will air on Jan. 14 to close out the Arrowverse's "Crisis on Infinite Earths".Official premiere dates: Batwoman: Jan. 19, 8 p.m.Supergirl: Jan. 19, 9 p.mBlack Lightning: Jan. 20, 9 p.m.Arrow: Jan. 21, 8 p.m.DC's Legends of Tomorrow: Jan. 21, 9 p.m. The Flash: Feb. 4, 8 p.m. https://www.cbr.com/cw-arrowverse-riverdale-black-lightning-midseason-premiere-dates/   FEEBACK:   DISCORD: yakk0dotorg 12/12/2019 Here’s a pretty interesting interview with Brandon Routh on the crossover and his time as Ray and Superman. https://youtu.be/owOvkaOgab0 FACEBOOK: ‎‎Anthony McDowell‎ I am sad that the Starling Tribune is about to shut down. Y'alls coverage of the show plus the One-shots and other stuff yuns do is fantastic. Just listened to Purgatory and thought that I would mention that on VUDU you can buy the bundles of Invansion and Crisis On Earth-X. They haven't got Elseworlds bundled yet but hopefully they do, and obviously I hope eventually they get Crisis On Infinite Earths bundled too. Thanks, I appreciate y'all, it's been fun listening to y'alls coverage, and looking forward to these last little bit of episodes. Thanks! REDDIT (via Chris): https://www.reddit.com/r/arrow/comments/e9vu1r/crisis_spoilers_star_city/Posted byu/rleach10017 days ago[Crisis Spoilers] Star CityspoilerStar City 2046 can't be the same Earth featured in Legends of Tomorrow. I know Sara said the Waverider jumped dimensions, but she has to be wrong. In Legends of Tomorrow S1E6, Sara meets future Oliver and he says:"30 years ago, you and Ray hopped on a spaceship, and you never came back."In Crisis Part One, they meet alternate Oliver, and he says:"You're dead. You... you went down with the Gambit."So, Earth-16 is an alternate Earth that's very similar to Star City 2046, but Sara actually died on the Gambit. She never got on the Amazo, joined the League, or came back to Star City. Star City 2046 was a potential future for Earth-1 that was avoided.   NEXT EPISODE   Link to Promo: https://comicbook.com/dc/2019/12/09/crisis-on-infinite-earths-spoilers-part-3-trailer-watch-online-the-flash/ (Date: 9 Dec 2019)    Episode: “Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part 3” [Flash: Season 6 Episode 9] Air Date: Tuesday, December 10, 2019 Summary: Pariah enlists Black Lightning to help stop the Anti-Monitor after Flash-90 Shares what he learned from his battle in 'Elseworlds'.

The Starling Tribune Reporters SP and Chris review the 2019 Arrowverse Crossover Crisis On Infinite Earths Part One (technically Supergirl Season 5 Episode 9) with the help of Michelle’s notes once again. Michelle was out sick for the week. The reporters discuss the final Arrow included crossover episode part one including why you should enjoy these episodes while you have access to them, that this is simply the MOST AMBITIOUS crossover in the history of television spanning SIX currently airing television shows, why its time to geek out over all the cameos, the reporter’s takes on the Earth-16 adventure (more to come in a later episode), the reporter’s roses and thorns with this episode of the crossover, why Arrow fans might feel cheated at the big Arrow moment and Marc Guggenheim’s reasons for it,if the crossover can be produced like a 5 episode miniseries or a 5 episode premium streaming series, why James Bamford would have been a great addition to the Supergirl episode production staff, and what was that deal between the Monitor and Oliver Queen about anyway?   Episode:            “Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part One” [Supergirl: Season 5 Episode 9] Air Date:           Sunday, December 8, 2019   Director:           Jesse Warn https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1168394/?ref_=tt_ov_dr                          13x Supergirl / 6x Arrow / 4x The Flash / 8x Spartacus   Writers: Robert L.

The Starling Tribune Reporters SP and Chris review the Arrow finale season seventh episode “Purgatory” with the help of Michelle’s notes. The reporters discuss the final Arrow pre-Crisis episode including the return of Yoa Fei, Billy Wintergreen and Edward Fryers; the effective CGI use in the episode; why SP’s knives are better than Stephen Amell’s knives, speculate on who is going to teach Mia how to slap water, Lyla’s transformation into Harbinger, how a path for Diggle to become the Green Lantern was missed, speculation on how Roy’s arm will be replaced, if we thought we wasted our time with the Flash Forwards, and Oliver’s great final moments with Mia and Williams. The duo also prepare themselves for Crisis by discussing the seven year build up to Crisis, the confusing nature of the pre-crisis cut scene, Chris expands a popular Monitor fan theory, discussing some of Marc Guggenheim last minute pre-crisis news, and what would be change for the better for fans post crisis.   Episode:            “Purgatory” [Season 8 Episode 7] Air Date:           Tuesday, December 3, 2019    Director:           James Bamford https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0051466/?ref_=tt_ov_dr                          18x Arrow / 1x Supergirl   Writers: Rebecca Bellotto https://www.imdb.com/name/nm3428799/?ref_=ttfc_fc_wr4                          10x Arrow   Rebecca Rosenberg https://www.imdb.com/name/nm9455161/?ref_=ttfc_fc_wr5                          2x Arrow Promo: https://www.comicbookmovie.com/tv/dc/arrow/arrow-oliver-queen-is-going-to-save-the-multiverse-in-the-new-promo-for-season-8-episode-7-purgatory-a171886   Arrow   Episode # / Episode Title / Episode Air / Date  / Rating 01 Starling City 15-Oct-19 0.84 02 Welcome To Hong Kong 22-Oct-19 0.77 03 Leap Of Faith 29-Oct-19 0.76 04 Present Tense 5-Nov-19 0.62 05 Prochnost 19-Nov-19 0.74 06 Reset 26-Nov-19 0.79 07 Purgatory 3-Dec-19 0.83   Legends Of Tomorrow   Episode # / Episode Title / Episode Air / Date  / Rating   Supergirl   Episode # / Episode Title / Episode Air / Date  / Rating 01 Event Horizon 6-Oct-19 1.26 02 Stranger Beside Me 13-Oct-19 0.97 03 Blurred Lines 20-Oct-19 0.92 04 In Plain Sight 27-Oct-19 0.95 05 Dangerous Liaisons 3-Nov-19 0.78 06 Confidence Women 10-Nov-19 0.8 07 Tremors 17-Nov-19 0.79 08 The Wrath Of Rama Khan 1-Dec-19 0.87   The Flash   Episode # / Episode Title / Episode Air / Date  / Rating 01 Into the Void 8-Oct-19 1.62 02 A Flash of the Lighting 16-Oct-19 1.27 03 Dead Man Running 22-Oct-19 1.38 04 There Will Be Blood 29-Oct-19 1.48 05 Kiss Kiss Breach Breach 5-Nov-19 1.19 06 License To Elongate 19-Nov-19 1.29 07 The Last Temptation of Barry Allen, Pt. 1 26-Nov-19 1.17 03 The Last Temptation of Barry Allen, Pt. 2 3-Dec-19 1.32   Black Lightning   Episode # / Episode Title / Episode Air / Date  / Rating 01 The Book Of Occupation: Chapter Two: Birth of the Blackbird 7-Oct-19 1.16 02 The Book Of Occupation: Chapter Two: Maryam’s Tasbih 14-Oct-19 0.63 03 The Book of Occupation: Chapter Three: Agent Odell's Pipe-Dream 21-Oct-19 0.61 04 The Book of Occupation: Chapter Four: Lynn's Ouroboros 28-Oct-19 0.52 05 The Book of Occupation: Chapter Five: Requiem for Tavon 11-Nov-19 0.71 06 The Book of Resistance: Chapter One: Knocking on Heaven's Doo 18-Nov-19 0.62 07 The Book of Resistance: Chapter Two: Henderson's Opus 25-Nov-19 0.65 08 The Book of Resistance: Chapter Three: The Battle of Franklin Terrace 2-Dec-19 0.60   Batwoman   Episode # / Episode Title / Episode Air / Date  / Rating 01 Pilot 6-Oct-19 1.86 02 The Rabbit Hole 13-Oct-19 1.45 03 Down Down Down 20-Oct-19 1.22 04 Who Are You? 27-Oct-19 1.29 05 Mine Is A Long And A Sad Tale 3-Nov-19 1.16 06 I'll Be Judge, I'll Be Jury 10-Nov-19 1.09 07 Tell Me The Truth 17-Nov-19 1.01 08 A Mad Tea-Party 1-Dec-19 1.01   Part 1: The Plot, Themes and Characters What was the overall theme?

"They were very gracious about it."At this time, it's unknown if recurring Flash characters Harry Wells and Jesse Quick managed, both denizens of Earth-2, escaped their world's destruction. However, according to Arrow star Stephen Amell, Oliver witnessing the destruction of an alternate Earth will continue to impact him for the rest of the season. https://www.cbr.com/arrow-clear-destruction-earth-2-flash-writers/ Green Arrow and the Canaries: Arrow Spinoff Series Gets First Promo Poster (Date: 16 Oct 2019) A new poster for the upcoming female-centric Arrow spinoff spotlights the new Green Arrow Mia Smoak (Katherine McNamara), as well as the two Canaries (Katie Cassidy and Juliana Harkavy), Laurel Lance and Dinah Drake. The art was shared by Arrow co-creator Marc Guggenheim. "Arrow's final season bows today, so it feels appropriate to share this glimpse of its future," he wrote. Stylized to look like a comic book, the art features Laurel and Dinah in their current costumes, while Mia seems to be wearing one inspired by her father. https://www.cbr.com/green-arrow-and-the-canaries-arrow-spinoff-series-first-promo-poster/   Crisis on Infinite Earths: Stephen Lobo Cast as Jim Corrigan, AKA The Spectre (Date: 16 Oct 2019) Another DC Comics icon will make their Arrowverse debut during the Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover. IGN can exclusively reveal that Detective Jim Corrigan, human host of the powerful cosmic entity known as the Spectre, will appear in the crossover.The CW has cast Stephen Lobo (Continuum, Supernatural) as Jim Corrigan. The network isn't confirming whether The Spectre himself will appear, though given the character's role in the original Crisis on Infinite Earths comic, that seems a distinct possibility.In the comics, Corrigan is a mortal human bonded to the Spectre, a powerful supernatural avenger. That bond is intended to give the so-called "Spirit of Vengeance" a conscience and a better perspective on mortal affairs. The two are among many heroes who do battle with the Anti-Monitor during Crisis. https://www.ign.com/articles/2019/10/16/crisis-on-infinite-earths-spectre-jim-corrigan-casting-crossover-cw-arrow-stephen-lobo FEEDBACK   DISCORD:   RandyWalker I totally forgot that Earth-2 Laurel went back to Earth-2. NGL I totally didn’t pay attention to the ending few episodes of season 7. The FTA sucked then and it’s still bad. Adrian Chase’s hair was sexy   yakk0dotorg very satisfying premiere of Arrow last night. I enjoyed it a lot.   StephenJondrew Totally agree - right from start to finish. I loved the ending seconds. It was so good. Also, the Diggle-car scene was a fantastic moment. I enjoyed how that whole Diggle debut played out.   E-MAIL:   From David: First off I wanted to start off by saying I am going to miss your podcast. I look forward to your arrow recap every week. A couple of thoughts. Am I the only one who notices that the Queen mansion looked different. The foyer didnt look the same as it did in season 1 and 2. Also, do you guys have any speculation as to what happened to Robert Queen on Earth 2?  The last thing I remember was that he was the hood. I also know people hate the Flash Forwards but I actually think they are building to a place where Oliver will end up in the future recruiting Mia and her team, since the Monitor told Felicity in the finale of season 7 "Believe me, the world will need her as well"   NEXT EPISODE   Link to Promo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kfj3xucI8Xk (Date: 15 Oct 2019)    Episode: “Welcome to Hong Kong” [Season 8 Episode 2] Air Date: Tuesday, October 22, 2019  Summary: Oliver, John, Laurel, and Tatsu seek out an important person within The Monitor's plan.

"He and and I talked for about a month before he formally notified [CW president] Mark [Pedowitz] and [WBTV president] Peter Roth, because he was like, 'Think about this a lot, let’s talk about it, because once I kick it up the chain, once the ball starts rolling….' So I thought about it then. I assumed that [the series] was going to end at the end of 7, but Greg’s smarter than me, and he had a really good idea about a limited run in Season 8."https://www.cbr.com/arrow-when-stephen-amell-decided-to-leave/ Colton Haynes is returning to Arrow for the final season (Date: 3 Oct 2019) EW has exclusively learned that Colton Haynes is indeed returning to Arrow and will recur in the final season. The news arrives two months after the star’s demotion from series regular status sparked some fear that he might not appear in the CW superhero drama’s farewell song.

Although she initially believed the pain and discomfort to be a broken rib, the sensation persisted for months while she was filming a movie in Romania where she similarly performed her own stunts. After receiving an MRI, Rose learned the true extent of her injury, with only a tiny portion of her spine not severed.Running the risk of becoming paraplegic should she strain and move her back in even the slightest sensitive position, Rose underwent surgery to repair her spine, taking time off to recuperate before jumping back into filming the rest of the series.https://www.cbr.com/batwomans-ruby-rose-stunt-injury-broke-neck   NEXT EPISODE   Link to Promo Photos: https://www.cbr.com/arrow-season-8-black-canary-diggle-starling-city-photos/ (Date: 10 Sept 2019)    Episode: “Starling City” [Season 8 Episode 1] Air Date: Tuesday, October 15, 2019 Summary: In the wake of discovering what his future holds, Oliver will find himself pit against his most challenging battle yet, one that will leave the multiverse hanging in the balance.

At this point, there aren’t any details on how his DC Comics gunslinger will fit into the epic five-hour event, which includes Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, and Batwoman. https://ew.com/tv/2019/09/06/jonah-hex-arrowverses-crisis-on-infinite-earths-crossover/ Crisis on Infinite Earths Recruits The Flash's John Wesley Shipp (Date: 10 September 2019) Shipp has a role to play in this year's five-show Arrowverse crossover. However, there's no word yet on which role he will reprise for the event. Throughout his Arrowverse tenure, Shipp has played three separate characters: Henry Allen, Jay Garrick and the Barry Allen of Earth-90. Henry died in Season 2, so it likely won't be this character. In Season 4, Jay announced his plan to train a new Flash for Earth-3, after which he would retire from the superhero life. As such, it's possible for Jay to return with his new trainee in tow.https://www.cbr.com/crisis-on-infinite-earths-john-wesley-shipp/ Arrow Favorite Willa Holland to Return and Recur During Final Season (Date: 18 September 2019) The character that Arrow fans most hoped would put in an appearance during the final season — Oliver’s sister, played by former series regular Willa Holland — will indeed be seen again, TVLine has learned. But wait, there’s more: Holland is confirmed to not just guest-star but recur during the CW series’ 10-episode farewell run. https://tvline.com/2019/09/18/arrow-willa-holland-returns-final-season-thea/?fbclid=IwAR2QJpp7uXz2vRsOUdHF_N5taCD1RgObN1ruQNVfYV92BPKnP-ZzIbPunr8 Tom Welling To Reprise ‘Smallville’ Clark Kent Role In Arrowverse Crossover On the CW (Date: 19 Sept 2019) And then there were three. Tom Welling is set to reprise his Smallville role as Clark Kent in the CW’s upcoming DC Arrowverse crossover, joining two other actors who have played the Man of Steel, Tyler Hoechlin and Brandon Routh that are already set to portray the character in the crossover. https://deadline.com/2019/09/tom-welling-reprise-smallville-clark-kent-role-arrowverse-crossover-the-cw-1202738738/   NEXT EPISODE   Link to Promo: https://comicbook.com/dc/2019/05/07/legends-of-tomorrow-terms-of-service-preview/  (Date: 7 May 2019)    Episode: “Terms of Service” [Season 4 Episode 15] Air Date: Monday, May 13, 2019 Director: April Mullen Writers: Grainne Godfree & Ubah Mohamed   IMDB link: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8312964/?ref_=tt_ep_nx    Link to Promo: https://comicbook.com/tv-shows/2019/05/13/legends-of-tomorrow-spoilers-season-4-finale-trailer-preview-promo-arrowverse/  (Date: 13 May 2019)    Episode: “Hey, World!” [Season 4 Episode 16] Air Date: Monday, May 20, 2019 Director: Kevin Mock Writers: Phil Klemmer & Keto Shimizu   IMDB link: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8312968/?ref_=ttfc_fc_tt  Summary: Sara and Ava concoct a bold plan to take back the Time Bureau; Zari and Charlie must work together to discover what Neron is planning; Constantine is given a tough choice on who to save from Hell.

Routh and Ford’s exits stem from a creative decision to wrap up their storyline. Because of the nature of the time-traveling Legends of Tomorrow, there has been a natural character turnover, with series regulars leaving as their stories come to an end and new ones coming on board. Of the large regular ensemble cast that started in Season 1, only a couple will still be on the show by the end of this coming season. https://deadline.com/2019/08/brandon-routh-courtney-ford-exit-dcs-legends-of-tomorrow-series-regulars-season-5-the-cw-1202702311/   NEXT EPISODE   https://comicbook.com/dc/2019/04/30/legends-of-tomorrow-spoilers-nip-stuck-trailer-preview-the-cw/ (Date: 29 April 2019)    Episode: “Nip/Stuck” [Season 4 Episode 14] Air Date: Monday, May 6, 2019 Summary: When Sara hesitates to make a tough call, Rory steps up creating a wedge in the team.

Plus, as first reported by TVLine, the role of Diggle and Lyla’s grown-up biological son, John Jr., is being cast for the flash-forward storyline, in which he thus far has only been referenced or encountered off-screen.Arrow kicks off its 10-episode final season on Tuesday, Oct. 15 at 9;8c, with the premiere titled “Starling City.” https://tvline.com/2019/07/11/arrow-final-season-8-katherine-mcnamara-series-regular-mia/ GENERAL DC News   Legends of Tomorrow: Constantine to Return for Season 5 (Date: 10 July 2019) Ryan is returning as a series regular for the show's fifth season which will debut at midseason. This will surely be good news for Constantine fans as well as will be very helpful for the Legends themselves considering how the Season 4 finale teased at a major new threat coming for not just the team, but the world. https://comicbook.com/dc/2019/07/10/legends-of-tomorrow-matt-ryan-constantine-series-regular-season-/ DC's Legends of Tomorrow ups Astra actress to series regular for season 5 (Date: 11 July 2019) Astra Logue will continue to cause trouble for DC’s Legends of Tomorrow in season 5. EW can exclusively reveal that Olivia Swann, who portrays Astra, a.k.a. Constantine’s Achilles heel, has been promoted to series regular for season 5. It’s fair to say this doesn’t mean anything good for the Legends seeing as how last season ended with Astra releasing the souls of Genghis Khan, Charles Manson, and many other historical bad guys back into the world of the living.“A lot of what Constantine is going to be dealing with this is season is his very complicated relationship with her and a desire to save her despite all the pain and trouble she’s putting us through,” producer Keto Shimizu says. https://ew.com/tv/2019/07/11/legends-of-tomorrow-olivia-swann-astra-season-5-big-bad/?fbclid=IwAR1zBlzTX-AvAV542Dkwru8L3t2QDASfBo9kTGVrs34cJIExf2QHrxNTTZs NEXT EPISODE   Link to Promo: https://comicbook.com/dc/2019/04/08/legends-of-tomorrow-spoilers-season-4-seance-and-sensibility-tra/ (Date: 8 April 2019)    Episode: “Séance and Sensibility” [Season 4 Episode 11] Air Date: Monday, April 15, 2019  Summary: When Mona discovers that her favorite author, Jane Austen, might be at the epicenter of a magical alert, Mona, Sara, Charlie and Zari find themselves in 1809.

That kind of material is now mainstream across all genres, so we thought it was the right time to bring greater clarity to the DC brand and reinforce our commitment to storytelling for all of our fans in every age group. This new system will replace the age ratings we currently use on our material.   NEXT EPISODE   Link to Promo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=45o3W_oT4DI (Date: 1 April 2019)    Episode: “The Getaway” [Season 4 Episode 10] Air Date: Monday, April 8, 2019 Summary: When Hank commandeers the Waverider in 1973, the Legends find themselves on the run in an RV after kidnapping the President who is only able to tell the truth.
