'The Boys' Casting News (Amazon 2019). Top Story - September 2018.
A few months ago I wrote about my excitement for the news that production was gearing up to start on Amazon's TV adaptation of Garth Ennis's The Boys. Some of the early casting had been announced, but here I'm going to run through the main character cast list for the recently wrapped Season 1 and look at how the casting matches up against the graphic novels characters.

Scarlet Witch and Loki TV Shows
It has been announced that Loki and Scarlet Witch, joined by a few other characters, will be getting their own shows on Disney's new streaming service. I think it'll be interesting to see the direction they take the characters. There has always been a desire amongst fans for more Loki content and Wanda is a really interesting character in the comics. It'll definitely be a big hit for the new streaming service. If they keep it up, many people will see it as more than just a Netflix rip-off.

'Legends of Tomorrow' Review
DC’s Legends of Tomorrow is a spin-off starring characters from CW’s Arrow and Flash. The story involves time lord Rip Hunter (Arthur Darvill) working for an organization called the time masters. When an immortal tyrant named Vandal Savage (Casper Crump) murders his wife and son and conquers the Earth, the time masters refuse to help Rip stop Savage. Thus he goes rogue on his ship called the Waverider with his AI Gideon (Amy Louise Pemberton) and recruits a team to help him: an assassin named Sara Lance (Caity Lotz), a scientist with a suit that allows him to shrink named Raymond Palmer (Brandon Routh), both halves of a nuclear powered superhero known as Firestorm named Jefferson “Jax” Jackson (Franz Drameh), Professor Martin Stein (Victor Garber), the present-day incarnations of a duo known as Hawkgirl and Hawkman named Kendra Saunders (Ciara Renee) and Carter Hall (Falk Hentschel), and a pair of thieves named Mick Rory (Dominic Purrell) and Leonard Snart (Wentworth Miller). Together the team of outcasts and misfits work together to stop Savage and after blowing up the time masters take up their mantle in stopping time against others who mean to cause the timeline harm. Despite the fact that it has been around for only three seasons (shorter than both its sister shows), it has easily outdone both of them and has become the best of the four Arrowverse shows through compelling characters, strong villains, stellar writing, and good chemistry among each other.

Times When 'The Gilmore Girls' Is the Literal Worst
The Gilmore Girls is a lot of things to a lot of people. It is a happy, cozy show about familial closeness and the prettiness of New England weather. It is about friendships carrying you through hard times and helping you achieve your goals. It is a show about a mother and daughter, quirky and funny, and the life they lead among small-town nuttiness. It is, indisputably, a great show, much beloved, and worthy of a million rewatches.

Hidden in Plain Dialogue (Introduction)
Dragons: Race to the Edge is one of my top favorite Netflix series to binge. While the show is aimed at a much younger audience, much of the plot is engaging for people of all ages. There's something to be said about the pure genius of the lines of dialogue that are clearly meant to entertain the parents or older siblings watching the show with young children. One of my personal favorites is an exchange between Hiccup and Trader Johann in the "Have Dragon Will Travel Pt. 1" episode from season one. Hiccup is asking Johann why Heather, a lone dragon rider, is attacking and looting ships:

The 'Titans' Trailer Got Some Things Very Wrong
Just recently, I was introduced to the animated Cartoon Network series Teen Titans and instantly fell in love. The characters are likable and fully fleshed out. The stories are exciting and fun. It's one of those kids that doesn't talk down to it's young viewers. So, when I heard there was a live action TV series in the works, I got excited. Then I saw the trailer.

So, I have a lot of movies and shows that I love to watch, but I get really tired of seeing only straight people and straight relationships. Therefore, I love finding shows that have good LGBT characters. Here are some of the shows that I've found that have these good LGBT characters, for everyone who, like me, freaks out when they find these:
