As predicted, 2 new episodes and then another 2 weeks off.

Well that’s f***in’ dumb.

 

[Karelia]

Yeahh, that kinda sucks honestly.

So only 4 more episodes of the season? But I thought it finished in August.

It does. The dates are right there, lol.

 

[Perfect Cell]

The breaks are absolutely killing me. The start-stop nature of it all makes it difficult to stay invested. I almost feel like I need to rewatch the previous episodes during the break just to keep the flow going. I hope they can get something more consistent for season two.

The remaining four episodes of the show will take place between—but not through—the periods of July 13 and August 17. There are no new installments slated for July 27 and August 3.

That's just ridiculous. Might as well do another week of a hiatus instead of 2 new 2 off final 2.

 

[Chip Chipperson]

so this extremely bizarre scheduling for season 1 is undoubtedly because of covid, right? Because I love this show and don't think I can handle this kind of sporadic flow for future seasons.

I'd say partially it is since they had to shut down a couple times I think? Batwoman/Legends somehow were lucky enough to avoid any major shut downs.

Too much competition for ratings July 23rd through August 8th.

Maybe, but given how many productions had to shut down before they even started filming this show you'd think they'd have factored in the probability of having to shut down a couple times into their scheduling. I'm inclined to put most of the blame on the people responsible for scheduling the shows, because this kind of s*** still happened fairly often even before the pandemic. They also do a pretty terrible job communicating what the schedule even is.

You want leaks? Cuz this is how you get leaks.

So apparently

Wolé Parks has confirmed they return to start filming S2 in two months, presumably September, which is what I've been hearing on social media the last couple days as well.

A slightly quicker turnaround between seasons than expected, but the exciting part of that to me is that Wolé will apparently still be around in S2.

And Batwoman was still pretty rushed, imo. The finale was a bit of a mess, with some absolutely bizarre editing going on.

Yeah, fairly confident this was probably the biggest factor in Supergirl ending.

Yeah, fairly confident this was probably the biggest factor in Supergirl ending.

I really get the impression the biggest factor was Melissa/contracts/budget. Her contract was up after 6 seasons, and unlike other Arrowverse stars, she seemed to have other stuff she wanted to do + being a new mom. It probably just seemed like the right time for all parties involved, as I'd imagine the only thing that would've kept her on would've been a pay/budget increase, and the network wouldn't have had any real reason to go for that, with the older Arrowverse shows dying down and this (clearly more expensive) show taking off. So ending it on their terms at this time seems like it was just the most logical choice for everyone.

Hope this doesn't mean that the S1 finale ends in a cliffhanger. Happy 4th, by the way!
