I'm not sure what all we even talked about this episode, but it was a whole lot more than what is written below! Not only did we discuss the Supergirl trailer teaser AND trailer, not only did we discuss the update David Jenkins gave us for Booster Gold, we somehow got into discussions on franchise tone, fan expectation, my new cornbread cast iron skillet, my new ceramic pan... I don't even know. Plus, and update on the Grant Morrison/Damon Lindelof Lanterns drama!

From Jimmy Olsen’s true-crime docuseries DC Crime to James Gunn’s Clayface tease, this week’s DC on SCREEN dives deep into the weirdest corners of the DC Universe — and maybe the cosmos. We’re breaking down the latest Supergirl updates, the supposed Lanterns release shuffle, and what the rumored Paramount-Warner merger could mean for James Gunn and Peter Safran’s DC Studios. Also -- who the hell could Alan Ritchson be playing in the DCU? Plus: we get sidetracked by grey aliens, Betty and Barney Hill, and Valiant Thor — because of course we do.

DC Crime (New HBO Max Series)

• American Vandal creators Tony Yacenda and Dan Perrault are developing a Jimmy Olsen-lead series DC Crime, a true-crime show hosted by Jimmy Olsen (Skyler Gisondo).
• Season 1 focuses on Gorilla Grodd, with James Gunn and Peter Safran executive producing.

Supergirl

• Actor David Krumholtz (Zor-El) confirms the film will dive deeper into the House of El and Krypton’s legacy.
• Reports of reshoots/additional photography may include David Corenswet’s Superman, possibly explaining the missing costume from the WB Studio Tour.

Clayface

• James Gunn celebrates Clayface’s comic anniversary, confirming Tom Rhys Harries will bring the tragic villain to life.
• The post hints at a more nuanced, human Clayface rather than a pure monster.

Lanterns Update

• The Hollywood Reporter quietly confirms that Lanterns will debut after Supergirl in the new DCU timeline, but is that new information?

DC Studios & Paramount Merger Rumors

• Bloomberg reports Paramount CEO David Ellison aims to keep Gunn and Safran’s leadership intact if a merger happens.
• We talk about corporate shake-ups, creative stability, and what that could mean for the DCU’s future.

Fandom Flanderization & Brainiac

• Gunn reposts a video on “fandom flanderization”, reminding fans that there’s no single “true” version of DC’s heroes — just evolving interpretations.

Alan Ritchson’s “Messier” Role Talks

• Ritchson confirms conversations with DC Studios about playing a morally grey anti-hero, saying he wants something “a little dirtier” than a clean-cut protagonist.

Bat-Fam Animated Series

• The new DC animated series Bat-Fam is now streaming on Prime Video.

Bonus Tangents

• Grey aliens.
• Betty & Barney Hill’s abduction.
• Valiant Thor’s alleged time at the Pentagon.

Listen to "Supergirl's Grit! Supernatural Batman!? Gunn Talks DCU Future! | News" on Spreaker.

I've been sick, so it's been a minute -- meanwhile James Gunn is out here talking up Salvation, hinting at a supernatural Batman, and letting Supergirl be as edgy as Tom King and Ana Nogueira want her to be. Of course we're trying (and failing) to process it all like responsible adults. We break down why Andy Muschietti should shut tf up about The Flash, Gunn's Lex Luthor obsession, go on a stroopwafel detour, diagnose our ADHD binge-watch habits, and so much more! This is a longie, y'all (you're welcome, Eli)!

Listen to "Peacemaker 2x06 - "Ignorance is Chris" Review" on Spreaker.

How did this episode find us, you wonder? How did we like the reveal of the alternate universe's big secret? We got deep in on this one -- from why Adrian's dad wasn't gay in the alternate universe (and why Chris may have been disappearing on his family) to issues with basement keys, bush dives, and dry heaves... And of course we talk about the Beatles, that great conversation between Chris and Harcourt -- so much...

Also, is Red St. Wild's sorcery tapping into The Red? Will Ads go into the alternate reality with Chris and prove our Earth X theory?
