Van Williams (The Green Hornet) Passes Away

TV actor Van Williams passed away on November 28, 2016.
Comic book and TV fans know him for his television role as Britt Reid/the Green Hornet where he teamed for one season with the late Bruce Lee as his partner Kato.
He and Bruce Lee made three guest appearances on Batman.
The first was in a "batclimb" cameo, ("The Spell of Tut," 9/28/1966), and later in a two-part episode ("A Piece of the Action," 3/1/1967 and "Batman's Satisfaction," 3/2/1967).

Smallville and The Flash

You know with the rumors of getting Tom Welling to play Superman on Supergirl...this shot from Smallville kept popping into my head.
Wouldn't it be cool if the Flash team was paying a little homage there?
And wouldn't it be even cooler if it turned out to be foreshadowing?

Laura Vandervoort in Supergirl?

I do not have a thing against Melissa Benoist who plays Supergirl on the CBS series.
I think she is great.
But you have to give props to Laura Vandervoort (SyFy’s werewolf drama Bitten), was the original live action Supergirl on CW’s Smallville.
I know there are a few rumors that have floated around about Laura maybe showing up on Supergirl at some point which I think would be great.
But they are really nothing more than rumors.
Though they did cast Helen Slater (the movie Supergirl) and Dean Cain (Lois and Clark) in roles....
So you never know.
Who could she play?
I like the idea of her crossing over from Earth 2 as Powergirl.

Anyway, here is the beautiful Laura who had to play Supergirl without ever really getting a costume.....

The Middleman

And I know I just made a post, but I have to add this.....
I LOVE The Middleman!
In case you didn't get to see it (like I didn't) back during the summer, you can catch it online at the watch TV online sites.
I don't know how this program could be more perfect.
Maybe a bigger budget for special effects, but that's about it.
The inside jokes for comic book fans fly fast (really fast!) and hard.
Javier Grillo-Marxuach deserves an " I'm not worthy" if I ever get to met him.
The Middleman, his sidekick and Middleman in training, Wendy Watson (notice the classic double consonant name), Ida, Lacey Thornfield, Noser, Sensei Ping (a martial arts master that wears a Luchador mask) all fantastic.
My only problem with the series is that so far there has been no movement from ABC for a second season.
Can we not fix that?
Do yourself a favor and watch it.
But be ready to hit the pause and rewind a lot.

My favorite exchange so far (I haven't seen all the episodes yet) .......

THE MIDDLEMAN: Well. You ever read comic books?
WENDY: Yeah. I think Jughead’s a real hoot. Powers, Fell, Astro City, The Spirit, X-Man – old school, not ultimate -- Mouse Guard and The Flash.
THE MIDDLEMAN: Barry Allen or Wally West?
WENDY: Do you want me to leave?
