THE CW announcing that Supergirl is ending on Kara's birthday & that Batwoman is canceled a day after National Superhero Day, though.. They truly don't care. Yes, give your shows led by men (The Flash/ Legends of Tomorrow) that lose views weekly more budget, and cancel the ones with steady viewership. Good call.

Was never as big on Batwoman as I wanted to have been, but what brought me in was poc being able to talk about themselves (emotional, physical, mentally, spiritually) on the daily with other poc without a white person present in the scene. It is so rare on network television, the last time I saw this was with Fox’s Minority Report and we all know how that turned out.

It's Friday and what should be a quiet afternoon is getting quite noisy.
-Legendary comic artist/writer Neal Adams passed away yesterday. Adams co-created Green Lantern John Stewart, Batman nemesis Ra's-Al Ghul and Man-Bat.
He was also a strong advocate for creators rights and was one of the front leaders and secure credit recognition and pensions for Superman creators Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster.
-BATWOMAN has fought her last battle on the CW. The show has been axed after 3 seasons.
There was more behind-the-scenes drama on the series than in front of the camera. S1 saw the departure of series star Ruby Rose. At the time of their leaving the show, Rose gave being allergic to the costume as the rationale for leaving. Last year, Rose admitted that they left the show due it being a "toxic workplace" alleging unsafe working conditions to led to their accident requiring surgery and being pressured to return to the show while still recovering. Rose also accused costar Dougray Scott, who played Batwoman's father, of bullying women on set and detailed a run in with costar Camrus Johnson (Luke Fox/Batwing) who Rose says got on their case for returning to set late from a doctor's appointment.
Scott disputes that he was abusive on set, WB-TV backed him up during their investigation and even said it was Rose who had multiple complaints lodged against them.
Johnson had this to say at the time.
Things were quiet after new star Javicia Leslie took up the cowl, but it was too late.
-Also gone is LEGENDS OF TOMORROW.
-Either the continuing Johnny Depp v. Amber Heard trial is taking up everyone's attention or people don't care about THE WALKING DEAD anymore. Melissa MacBride has existed the planned Carol and Darryl spinoff show.
Her team's statement.
“Melissa McBride has given life to one of the most interesting, real, human and popular characters in The Walking Dead Universe. Unfortunately, she is no longer able to participate in the previously announced spinoff focused on the Daryl Dixon and Carol Peletier characters, which will be set and filmed in Europe this summer and premiere next year. Relocating to Europe became logistically untenable for Melissa at this time. We know fans will be disappointed by this news, but The Walking Dead Universe continues to grow and expand in interesting ways and we very much hope to see Carol again in the near future,” AMC said in a statement Wednesday.
For some reason fans have decided to blame Norman Reedus for her departure which lead Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Negan) to defend his pal.
Why must you all have Papa Winchester yell at you? You know a Winchester loves nothing more than to create Twitter drama (:: eyes Jared Padalecki::)
-Marvel gives a slight twist to their upcoming slap, swapping out dates for the CAPTAIN MARVEL sequel, THE MARVELS, for ANT-MAN & THE WASP: QUANTUMANIA.
THE MARVELS (with Tom Hiddleston's rumoured fiancee, Zawe Ashton joining)
previously held a release date of Feb. 17, 2023 but is now moving to July 28, 2023.
ANT-MAN & THE WASP (with newcomer Jonathan Majors, late of LOKI)takes on the Feb. 17th slate.
-Someone who doesn't have to worry about day and dates is director Jon Watts (SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME) who has exited the FANTASTIC FOUR reboot.
