I am watching the final two episodes of BSG tonight and the I am going to get right on it. Stargirl is by far the best DC series and it is purely down to the character and actress being so genuine and not wooden like the rest of them.

Re: Stargirl
I watched s2e1 last night. It really could have done with an extended recap at the outset though - 12 months on I’m struggling to remember exactly who all the secondary characters are.
I enjoyed it a lot. They have managed to give it the look and the pace of a feature film which the other DC shows often don’t quite pull off - Supergirl in particular tries to do episodic stories but allows the season arc to become too intrusive. That said, in pursuit of a feature-length serialised story they have set so many plates spinning in the first episode that it is very hard to sum up exactly what happened and I’m not convinced the episode cliffhanger was in the right place. If you haven’t seen part 1 yet I suspect you will have your enjoyment enhanced by waiting until part 2 drops next week, then have a mini-binge.
Brec Bassinger continues to be endlessly cute but it’s increasingly difficult to believe she’s really a teenager.
Loved this ep. It is always good when they slow things down and spend some time with the characters in their normal lives. It is good character development, adds depth to their lives and the world they live in and contributes to the realism factor.
The one thing which is killing me is how did Beth's googles get repaired?
I have it ready to watch, but Wednesday is a busy day for TV ;
Stargirl
What If
Superman & Lois
Monsters at Work
have you not tried Motherland Fort Salem ? I also watch Turner and Hooch on a Wednesday. Fantasy Island started too but even though there was a link to the original it seems a lot more magical than I ever remember it being

I tried Motherland Fort Salem but found Episode 1 hard work, havent gone back to it since.
I also have a copy of Fantasy Island, but Ive not watched it yet, I didnt care much for the original.

I really like Motherland Fort Salem I doubt I will continue long with F I
not really I pretty much said exactly the same thing and I think I made that comment after the first episode aired. Pat has become less annoying but the son still does my head in. Stargirl/Courtney in contrast has just got better and better.

Just realised she was 21 when you posted this. DOB May 25th 1999.

Re: Stargirl
Yeah, and playing a character who IIRC is meant to be about 16. Like many young adult actors asked to play teenagers, she pitches her voice up and puts an extra spring in everything she does. Cute, but not entirely convincing. Plus she just doesn’t look 16, though that’s not a problem because she looks 21!

Just a reminder Season 3 episode 1 dropped on 31st August, not sure when it'll hit Amazon Prime UK so it looks like CinemaHD time again unless there is something better and just as easy to use, Kodi doesn't work for me anymore?
