I have no idea at what point in my life I was introduced to The Flash. I don’t how old I was, if it was from a comic, a show, a conversation or even which Flash I knew about first. Best guess, it was a passing glance of the ‘90s TV show on CBS starring John Wesley Shipp. And whatever it was, however I found out about him, the character consumed me. Suddenly I ate, slept, breathed and farted The Flash and super speed. I would argue to death that there’s no way a lame-o hero like Superman could beat The Flash in a race…The Flash’s whole power set is speed! I don’t think I picked up a comic until I was in my late teens but when I did, I started with The Flash. And the only Flash I had ever known was Wally West.

The Binge Watch: Jericho - Season Two
I watch a LOT of television. So much so, that even though there are hundreds of channels with dozens upon dozens of quality shows out there, I still find time to go back and binge watch some of my old favorites. Enter my Binge Watch column. Every two weeks I'll present to you my review of a new show, or new season of a show. I'll try to pick shows I haven't watched yet, or obscure shows you may not have seen yet. Sit back and binge some TV with me!
Supergirl Casting News From SDCC!
The night would continue in the DC TV Universe as the Supergirl panel would take the stage in Hall H. The crowd got to see a screening of the pilot (which leaked online a few weeks ago). We also discovered that a prominent DC villain would be joining the cast. Maxwell Lord has been a villain and a hero at times, but on Supergirl he's described as a green tech billionaire who enjoys a friendly rivalry with Cat Grant and a fascination with National City's newest arrival, Supergirl. Portraying Lord is Peter Facinelli (The Twilight Saga, Fastlane, Can't Hardly Wait).
The Binge Watch: Jericho - Season One
I watch a LOT of television. I often find myself picking up brand new shows when I’m already overloaded with other shows that I haven’t caught up on. As it stands right now, I have the entire last season of Falling Skies to get through before the new season begins. I only just NOW finished the second season of Hannibal, in anticipation for season three to begin. I’m way behind in Homeland, Penny Dreadful, Orphan Black, and a few others. Yet I find myself on Netflix searching for shows I’ve loved so that I can re-watch them. I just finished Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Scrubs, and I’m on the final season of Lost. So when I decided to do this bi-weekly Binge Watch column, I wanted to pick a show that I hadn’t seen in some time. Jericho fit this bill nicely. I had only watched it the one time, while it was airing on CBS in its original, ill-fated run. The show barely lasted two seasons. It was canceled after its full first season, but due to a heavy fan based campaign involving a lot of peanuts being shipped to the network, it was renewed, only to be canceled again after just seven episodes. The series ran a total of twenty-nine episodes and spawned a continuing comic book series much in the way that Buffy has lived on in the panels of the Dark Horse Comics.
