The Flash, Arrow, and Supergirl Team Up in New Promo
The Flash and Arrow have decided it's time to introduce Supergirl to their fight club.
The CW has released a new ad featuring the DC superheroes, along with the Legends of Tomorrow. But instead of fighting each other to blow off steam, this time it's more of team-up training session, at least in the clip below.
The full, new Fight Club 2.0 promo is only currently available to watch on The CW's new app, which will also allow users to watch a number of episodes the network's shows for free.
Now to be clear, none of this footage is from the upcoming DC Comics four-show crossover. Though we did just learn that the Dominators will serve as the villains for the superheroes.
Ranking the Dexter Seasons From Worst to Best
Warning: Full spoilers for Dexter below.
This week marks the 10th anniversary of Dexter, which made its debut on Showtime on October 1st, 2006, and to mark the occasion, we're once more looking back at the entirety of the series to reflect upon the good times and the bad.
Plenty of fans still feel stung by how the show ended, but it's worth remembering that when Dexter was good, it was great. And when it tightened the vice, the pressure could be devastating. Let's not forget that there was a time when we were all telling our friends, "You have to see this show! It's totally awesome and twisted!"
So let's put it all on record. Which seasons sizzled? Which sank like an anchor? And at what point did Dexter's "ingenuity and originality" turn into "textbook Dexter blunder?" Here are all eight seasons of Dexter, ranked from worst to best...

Son of Zorn Is Serious About Its Animated Land, Zephyria
Son of Zorn might be largely set in Orange County, but it establishes a decidedly more fantastical world from the get-go in its pilot. The show's titular barbarian hails from the land of Zephyria, an island animated nation which, according to executive producers Phil Lord and Chris Miller, exists "under the 'A' in the Pacific Ocean."
Zephryia is a realm straight out of '80s action cartoons, comparable to He-Man's Eternia, and much of the fun of Son of Zorn is seeing those fantastical elements meld with our own more mundane world. The second episode of the show sees Zorn using the Stone of Sight to help his son Alangulon get the girl he's been pining after, though the episode is also loaded plenty of nods to other Zephryian secrets waiting to be discovered.
Ash vs Evil Dead Peels Back the Layers on Its Leading Man
You might think that after three feature films, a handful of comics and video games and one season of a TV show that you know everything there is to know about Ash Williams (Bruce Campbell). But Season 2 of Ash vs Evil Dead is out to prove you don't know nothin' yet.
When Season 2 picks up in its October 2nd premiere, Ash has finally accomplished his life-long dream: going to Jacksonville. But evil doesn't stay tamed for long, and he soon finds himself and his partners, Kelly (Dana DeLorenzo) and Pablo (Ray Santiago), heading to his home town of Elk Grove, Mich. to find some answers.
There audiences will meet some new faces: Ash's father, played by Lee Majors, and Ash's childhood best friend Chet, played by Ted Raimi. Meeting these two will shine a light back on Ash vs Evil Dead's titular hero, particularly when people get a sense of the man his father is.

We've known that a four-show CW superhero crossover is on its way for some time - but now we know the reason for all those supers getting together. It ain't a party.

How VR Could Change the Way We Treat Depression
While most of the hype surrounding VR has focused on games and entertainment, virtual reality in its latest guise poses a number of practical possibilities within clinical settings. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, an estimated 43.6 million adults in the United States alone have a diagnosable mental disorder, giving VR the scope to help a lot of its potential users.
Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy has been around for more than 20 years, but technological limitations and cost have prevented it from becoming widely available. That said, the advent of affordable mobile headsets means there are new opportunities to decentralize mental health treatment, and for it in turn to reach the masses. The current lack of clinical data, and how developers go about creating medically reliable experiences moving forward, will undoubtedly prove to be VR’s biggest challenge from a health perspective, though more and more studies are coming to light.
What Doctor Strange Means for Future Marvel Movies
“You wonder what I see in your future? Possibility.”
Those are the prophetic words Tilda Swinton’s Ancient One utters to Stephen Strange, after he arrives at Kamar-Taj, a broken man.
The Ancient One opens Strange's eyes to new possibilities.
She might as well be talking about the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Doctor Strange has something bigger on its mind: the future. Forget about those neat ‘Phases’ Marvel sometimes talks in – it’s already started ushering in new characters (Guardians, Black Panther) who will provide the foundation of the next 10 years.
Ken Kutaragi a ‘Japanese Steve Jobs,’ Says Jack Tretton
Former Sony boss Ken Kutaragi, who's best known as "The Father of PlayStation" and visionary behind the PlayStation 3, was in many ways like a "Japanese Steve Jobs," according to former SCEA CEO Jack Tretton.
When asked about Sony Computer Entertainment's former Chairman and Group CEO on the latest episode of IGN Unfiltered, Tretton recalled his time working for Kutaragi, calling him an "amazing man" and "unlike anybody else in that you could just take all corporate decorum and throw it out the window."
Tretton went on say that Kutaragi is much like former Apple head Steve Jobs "in that he had a vision that was very contrary to the corporate vision."
