geebsTV commentary:
Supernatural- I liked Felicia Day's character in this, but who doesn't like cute lesbian hacker girls? Hopefully they'll have her character back (and she doesn't meet the same fate as anyone who isn't Sam and Dean on this show)
Young Justice- Interesting, is the show going to be like this from now on? So, the show has jumped 5 years to the future. Dick Grayson is now Nightwing and official leader of Young Justice, which consists of himself, Superboy (who still has Wolf and Sphere), Miss Martian, and newcomers Blue Beetle, La'gaan, Wondergirl, Batgirl, Robin (Tim Drake), Mal, and Bumblebee. Noticeably absent in the ep are Artemis, Aqualad, and Kid Flash, though Zatanna and Rocket are now members of the Justice League. Also, at some point Meggan and Connor broke up, and she's with La'gaan.
Legend of Korra- I thought I recognized Asami's voice, but apparently not. Well, I mean, she's voice by the mad cute Seychelle Gabriel, who coincidentally played Princess Yue in the live action movie. And I've seen her in Falling Skies, but I don't recall her sounding like that, so its not like I'm actually recognizing her voice, if you get what I mean.
But yeah, Asami literally runs into Mako with her scooter, but they hit it off, and since her father basically invented automobiles in that world, she's rich as hell. Given she's a big fan of the Fire Ferrets, and her father is a fan of people who start out with nothing and make a name for themselves, he decides to sponsor the Ferrets. Of course, Korra is totes jealous.
So Korra's pretty freaked out about Iman because of his ability to removed a bender's powers. I mean, she definitely has a lot more to worry about, since she has more powers to lose if he did take them away. And would the avatar line end with her? Or would it transfer to the next Avatar.
And sure, while Tenzin was right in saying that creating a task force would just give more fuel to the anti-bender fire, at the same time, how does he expect everyone else to react, this guy could possibly take away their powers, of course their frightened. And fear leads to hate, hate leads to anger, etc, etc. Pretty clever how Tarlok forced Korra into the task force by ambushing her with a press conference at the party he threw for her.
You know, I understand, this is a martial arts action type world, and benders favor mobility, but you'd think they'd wear harder armor to protect themselves from chi-blocking? Hell, I'm sure metal benders could prolly even forge flexible armor.
Owel, Korra manages to let the press goad her into challenging Iman to a duel. She ends up getting ambushed and is rendered helpless, but Iman doesn't want to kill her/take away her powers and making her a martyr. You know, the fact that he wears a mask, I'm guessing if he's not someone we've met already, they'll introduce him as some random other character. Plus, I'm betting he's a bender. Ooh, I wonder if they'd actually end up making Aang the big bad? That would be interesting.
