THE FANDOM ZONE 181: "Hourman and Dr. Mid-Nite" Is Up!


"Oh, it's well known that talking is Beth Chapel's superpower."
"It's true."
-- Yolanda Montez and Beth Chapel, Stargirl: "Hourman and Dr. Mid-Nite"

Hello again, everyone!  My co-host Jesse Jackson and I are back with another new episode of The Fandom Zone Podcast!  This time, we discuss "Hourman and Dr. Mid-Nite", the fifth episode of the DC Universe/CW series Stargirl, featuring Brec Bassinger as Stargirl, Luke Wilson as Pat Dugan, Cameron Gellman as Rick Tyler, and Anjelika Washington as Beth Chapel!

In this episode, Jesse and I talk about things like Rick Tyler being a legacy superhero, differences between the Stargirl version of Rick Tyler and the original comics version, knowing that Greg Berlanti teen angst will eventually creep into the show, differences between the Stargirl version of Beth Chapel and the original comics version, the JSA artifacts choosing the right person to carry on the JSA legacy, Courtney pulling an Ocean's Eleven, Yolanda not wanting Beth around, Cindy's Halloween party, Henry King Jr. finally getting his Brainwave Jr. powers, Rick being a gearhead, Jesse's wife Linda watching Watchmen, Rex and Wendi Tyler leaving young Rick with Wendi's asshole brother, Rick's anger over his parents' deaths and how his life turned out, Jesse needing to start reading comics again, Beth finding the original Doctor Mid-Nite's goggles, Beth's parents being desperate for her to find friends her own age, Beth being the Felicity Smoak of Stargirl, Pat reaching out to Rick, Rick's uncle being bitter about being stuck with Rick, Pat becoming the Rupert Giles-like mentor for the new Justice Society, the Gambler and the Fiddler stealing a satellite dish, our favorite quotes of the episode, Fandom Zone Fanmail from Ken from Chicago, Jesse DVRing Stargirl to help their CW ratings, and more!
