Originally, Sabrina Reed, Michael Patterson, and Reed Gaudens had planned for Superman and Lois as well as The Flash to take over the pod entirely. Then an update on the sale of The CW rocked everyone's world and they realized they had to provide answers for those who actually want to know what's going on. Buckle up, folks, this ride ain't over yet!

Also on deck: The aforementioned takeover, Michael breaks his silence on Gotham Knights, Reed catches us up on In the Dark (and Murphy's bad choices), and the Spiral toasts The Flash for being the longest running Arrowverse show.

The Candice Patton Effect

The Spiral has finally made the trip to Horseshoe Bay, and they’re not leaving anytime soon. Yes, that’s right. Sabrina Reed, Michael Patterson, and Reed Gaudens have started their watch of Nancy Drew. They’re members of the Drew Crew now. Someone get them a mug from The Claw!



Also on deck: A lot of teasing. They teased The Winchesters pilot (don’t come for them CW, not a spoiler was mentioned), “Return to Rivervale,” and a special podcast about Candice Patton. They also lamented CW’s flop era, asserted Superman and Lois’ place in the Arrowverse, gave the Best Boy his due, and dragged the lack of international licensing deals for many of CW’s shows.
