agreed.

interesting idea.

clones...about as lame and cliche as mind control.

I'm back to just letting this one go.


I disagree about it being lame because it is a comic booky thing... even in a realistic superhero show you need to allow for SOME supernatural, especially once you introduce ANY supernatural abilities...

Which is back to my original point about identity... If this show didn't try so hard to walk the line, then they would be getting away with these "goofy" choices better...

It just shows zero imagination IMO.

Clones are one of the most played out things to use in superheroes, just like mind control.

But if that's a character's power, then whats he/she supposed to do??

sure, but this isn't a Morph on the X-Men situation.

Or a Clayface.


But we are talking about mad hatter( a hypnotist) and dr strange/court of owls who were known in the comics for dabbling in mad science and even cloning

Yeah, this show is legit bad right now but I can't stop watching because I don't want to admit I was wrong about it.

Of the three seasons, this one is probably my second favorite. I still think the 2nd one was the best overall. I wasn't too big one season one but then again, I'm not a fan of Jada Pinkett Smith.

Just sucks that this isn't going to be coming back until April 24.

Same. It's kind of an all over the place train wreck. No focus.

So what you`re saying is to stop while I`m ahead?............lol

My son turned me on to the show and so far has been very good.....The Penguin gets his no respected ass kicked all the time while in turn just wickedly kills other criminals.

Where I`m at now is where Harvey Dent and Ivy are coming into focus.............

I want Barnes to be Man-Bat.

Also, Jerome is trying really hard to be Heath Ledger and is actually doing a decent job. Still a better Joker than Jared Ledo.

I'm a bigger fan of Man-Spider.

Back at it again, pretty good episode, glad poison ivy is back in the show.....redheads........

Pretty good start, too bad Selina did not see Bruce defend himself. Guess all we have been waiting for happened, other than the Jim Gordon angle and Harvey looking like a buffoon.

Nice set up episode, hope they just get on with it.

I have no idea why they'd send him to Ras.

That only makes him more dangerous and more likely to survive and overthrow the clone. Which again, is a horribly stupid idea to begin with.

Well, they certainly are trying to make us think he is currently a prisoner of Ra's...

Herbie Popnecker is the key to this entire series. Certainly the wild card. Gonna be interesting to see what happens when he arrives, not to mention his idiot father.

Keep in mind, beautiful women swoon at Herbie's feet!
