Supergirl’s Lena Luthor Doesn’t Want the Show to Introduce Lex Luthor
Supergirl actress Katie McGrath, who plays Lena Luthor, shared with us over the phone some insights into her character that hails from one of DC’s most iconic families. It seems that being a Luthor is no easy task, especially if you’re trying to clear your name.
Spoilers for Supergirl continue below.
Lena is still dealing with the guilt she feels over the events of Season 2’s thrilling conclusion. Being one of the key people responsible for an alien invasion that resulted in your friend (Kara) losing her boyfriend (Mon-El) will undoubtedly keep you up at night.
When asked if she would like to meet her on-screen brother Lex, who we got a glimpse of last season in a flashback as a child, McGrath immediately said, “No! I don’t want any other Luthors around me. Why would I want to share power?”
Is Houston the Key to Walking Dead/Fear TWD Crossover?
Warning: Spoilers for AMC's The Walking Dead and Fear the Walking Dead follow...
The news broke and New York Comic-Con that there will be an official crossover between The Walking Dead and spinoff series Fear the Walking Dead. It's always been a tricky concept to embrace as Fear, while airing simultaneously, takes place years before the events that are currently happening on Walking Dead. For a while, back at San Diego Comic-Con, it seemed like the crossover might just be relegated to a bit of Madison's southern backstory and, perhaps, a familial connection to the Daryl and Merle Dixon.

You Are Missing Out on AMC’s Halt and Catch Fire
Halt and Catch Fire ended its four-season run on AMC this past Sunday. It was not the monumental event the end of other AMC dramas, such as Mad Men or Breaking Bad, was. The show had its devoted fans, many of them the TV critic types who espoused it frequently as "the best show you're not watching."
Those of us who watched it would not argue with that assessment. Halt and Catch Fire found itself dropped into the midst of an ever-expanding TV landscape. The era of "Peak TV" has made it increasingly hard for shows to make a real impact. Halt and Catch Fire never really rose above having a small-but-devoted fan base. However, in an era when dozens of shows inspire, at best, total apathy, that's still a fact worth celebrating.
Stranger Things: Season 2 Clip Reveals Major Eleven Twist
With Stranger Things returning in just a few weeks, a huge Eleven twist has been revealed for the upcoming second season.
Warning: Spoilers ahead for Season 2...turn back now if you don't want to know!
The Season 2 clip, which you can view here courtesy of MCM Comic Con, shows how Millie Bobby Brown's Eleven escapes the Upside Down. Stuck in this alternate world, Eleven discovers a hole branching from the Upside Down back into the normal world. Using her powers, Eleven more fully opens up the hole between worlds and escapes back into the real world.
Of course, the first season of the show ended with Eleven suddenly disappearing into the Upside Down, with fans left wondering what exactly happened to her or how she might find her way back. The clip, which you can view key moments from in the gallery below, doesn't indicate much about Eleven's time in the Upside Down, but does offer a moment of hope as she can now find her way back to her friends.
