Elongated Journey Into Night

CCU 95 Season 4 Episode 4

Octothorpe: another term for the pound sign (#)

I’m all for a good gumshoe mystery, but this one might be a stretch. This week Hartley Sawyer delivers a masterful performance when he joins Team Flash as the wise-cracking ex-police detective Ralph Dibny, AKA The Elongated Man. And trust me, this guy is a real private dick! When we first met Dibny, he appears to be a down on his luck, sleaze ball private investigator. Quickly we discover he has recently taken a ride on the Metabus and has a real chip on his shoulder for Barry Allen. Once his meta-abilities manifest, our hero-to-be makes matters even worse by blackmailing the crooked mayor into not being blackmailed!? Read more...

The Travel Agency his a hitman for hire operation that hasn't operated in over 12 years. Why that is will surprise you. If not Red's golf game will.

Cooper gets the spotlight this week in a story ripped from the headlines arc as he tries to save a kid from a downward spiral. We discuss the overtones of memory, mothers, and just how short lived the latest nuptials will be on this week's show. Read More...

A new villain (Onyx) faces off against this new incarnation of Team Arrow, while the team tries to figure out how to work together after all the secrets and change-ups. Meanwhile, Oliver juggles duties as the mayor and as a father, as new challenges arrive on each front, and a new anti-vigilante referendum threatens the safety of everyone on the team and in the city.

Oh, how the time a sped by like The Flash on his morning jog. We've reach the final 2 episodes and we're sad to see The Flash 90 go. In the penultimate episode 21, "Alpha", Cory and Tom discuss androids and Terminator rip-offs, and for the finale we see the return of Mark Hamill's Trickster for an encore performance in "The Trial of The Trickster."

Welcome back to Maid of Steel! While Scarlet Cougar is taking PTO, I've recruited fellow GSM Podcaster John (aka The Substitute) to join me on this installment of the podcast. Hopefully that helps explain why this podcast is coming to you so late in the week, and I do apologize for that. You may recognize John from Triplecast or from the retired pod Stuff I Learned Yesterday. We discuss Supergirl Season 3 Episode 3 "Far from the Tree" which originally aired on October 23, 2017 and featured the much anticipated guest appearance by Carl Lumbly! Read more...

So, here are our five favorite non-franchise Halloween horror movies. Read More...
