I couldn’t agree more, I would love to see season 2 of Green Lantern! Can’t wait for the other series like Superman & Lois and Stargirl.:grinning:

What?

Sorry wrong text. Fixed it.

It has been confirmed that the tentative release date of Stargirl season 2 is April 1st, not Fall.

It is only a working date, but that still means spring is more likely than Fall.

Wow. I’m stunned. I was making that guess based on my understanding of how long the first season took to come out from filming. Titans season 1 and Stargirl Season 1 began filming at the same time, but Stargirl took over a year longer to release, so I assumed (not knowing something has been set) the date.

My estimate was May 25th, so I was also surprised.

Superman and Lois have TWO sons?

I think I’m looking forward to Superman and Lois the most. The new season of Batwoman could be very interesting with a new lead.

I don’t know if we’ll ever see Green Arrow and the Canaries.

Still hoping for Green Arrow and the Canaries.

Yep. They are going to have two sons. One will be very nerdy and the other more athletic if I recall, but I’m not certain. The show will be very family-focused, so I’m curious to see what it will be like.
