A Storm of Spoilers

This week, Da7e and Neil close out their coverage of season 1 of Lanterns!

In The Calm [06:22], they discuss the finale in-depth and measure how it fits into their own expectations, the hopes and dreams of the larger DC fandom, and the limitations of the current business of TV. They also explore all the ways in which the show hoodwinked Da7e with easter eggs and tiny details.
Then in The Storm [55:52], they peer through the looking glass into the multiverse of options for a theoretical season two and the future of the Green Lantern Corps on the big screen. Including the many ways in which the answer could be "Just Bring Back Kyle Chandler."
Next week, Storm of Spoilers takes a short break as the pod prepares to travel to Middle Earth for The Rings of Power. The pod returns on October 28th with a Re-Rings deep dive into season one as they march toward the third season, which drops on Prime in mid-November.

This week, Da7e and Neil construct their thoughts on the penultimate episode of season one of HBO's Lanterns!
In The Calm [05:22], they unpack the fact that the show has pivoted from Bad Dads to Sad Dads, theorize about why the show chose to play the fight song for a specific college, and begin their advocacy for the inevitable Kelly MacDonald Emmy campaign.
Then in The Storm [43:42], it's time for predictions for what will happen in the finale, what (if any) ambitions the show has beyond a single season, and more.
Next week, Lanterns concludes its first season on Sunday night and the pod will be back on Monday to break it all down. Then after a few weeks off, Storm of Spoilers is headed back to Middle Earth for a rewatch of the first two seasons and coverage of the new season of The Rings of Power.

This week, Da7e and Neil follow the story of Lanterns back into the events of 2026 where there's a murder to solve, a gym teacher to confront, and more mysteries ahead...
In The Calm [04:08], they discuss the oddities at play in the fate of Hal Jordan. They also consider how John's new job and the show's insistence on mentioning Noah play into the potential endgame.
Then in The Storm [01:01:22], your faithful hosts unleash their new theories for the end of season one, the greater impact on the DCU movies, and what it could mean for future seasons.
Next week, it's the penultimate episode of season one of Lanterns and it looks like there will be plenty of flashbacks.  Classic Damon Lindelof.

This week, Da7e and Neil are caught in the darkness cloud of an episode that feels like a season finale, even though they know that Lanterns must carry on for three-ish more hours.
In The Calm [05:36], they discuss the Very True Detective Thing of doing a midseason action finale. And they say goodbye (probably) to several of their multi-color Lantern theories.
Then in The Storm [48:30], your faithful hosts construct several new theories for what's in store in the final three episodes, at least one of which espouses radical ideology about Manhunter healthcare.
Next week, Lanterns continues with an episode that blips back to the 2026 timeline and promises to bring another familiar face into the fray.

This week, Da7e and Neil are having a very mature conversation about an episode of Lanterns called "The Weenie."
In The Calm [04:30], they revisit the conversation about John's parents as he evades being honest with them. They also dive into how John omitting information in his relationships has become a recurring theme. And they weigh in on the episode's multiple fake-out story and what it could mean going forward.
Then in The Storm [52:30], they learn to not sleep on a hyper-specific member of the greater universe of Lanterns as they ponder how many colors of the spectrum this show is interested in.
Next week, Lanterns drops episode 5 on Sunday night. And the pod returns to break it all down on Monday.
