Vote! Two TV Flashes Move to Round 2 of CSBG’s March Madness

The stars of both live-action Flash TV shows have moved on to the next round in their respective brackets in CSBG’s annual March Madness DC/Marvel character tournament.

Kyle Gallner’s Bart Allen from Smallville didn’t make it, but considering he was up against Yvonne Craig’s Batgirl, that’s not terribly surprising.

Head over to CSBG to check out the rest of the match-ups!

Here’s the full tournament bracket.

“Who Is The Fastest Person Alive” Promo

Last night we saw the first Flash/Supergirl crossover teaser, and here’s another one. Just like the first, it’s short and non-spoilery.

And Flashfans.org has posted some official stills from the episode here. They have spoilers and show who the villains are, just to give people some advance warning.

The episode will air on March 28th, so mark your calendar!

First Flash/Supergirl Teaser

Today we got a look at the first promo for the Flash/Supergirl crossover on March 28th. There’s not much to see here, but it’s a quick glimpse to build anticipation for the episode, which is now only eleven days away.

What do you think? Will you be watching the episode, and are you excited for it? Feel free to share your thoughts!

LEGO Ideas: S.T.A.R. Labs Set Needs Your Support!

Flash STAR Labs LEGO Idea

If you follow us on Facebook or Twitter, you’ve seen our link to Kizmo’s S.T.A.R. Labs LEGO Ideas set based on the CW Flash TV show. In LEGO Ideas, you design a model, post photos and descriptions, and drum up support. A project that gets 10,000 votes will go on to get an official review, and possibly become an actual set.

Kizmo’s set features the Cortex and the “time vault” as well as minifigures of the Flash and Reverse-Flash suits, Barry Allen, Caitlin Snow, Cisco Ramon and Harrison Wells (with his season 1 wheelchair).

The project launched last month and currently stands at 1350 supporters, with a year and a half to reach the next milestone. Supporting the project doesn’t cost anything (you’re not committing to buying something like you would be with Kickstarter), but it does require that you sign up with a LEGO ID.

The Flash Renewed for Season 3

Not that this will surprise anyone, but the CW has officially renewed “The Flash” for a third season!

CW actually renewed their entire slate, from new shows like “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend” to double-digit veteran “Supernatural.” That means we’re also getting a fifth season of “Arrow,” a third season of “iZombie,” and a second season of “Legends of Tomorrow.” Add in CBS renewing Supergirl for a second season, and it’s clear DC Entertainment has had another successful year of TV shows! (No word yet on renewals for Gotham or Lucifer, but they seem safe.)

“Flash” and “Arrow” were safe bets for renewal, but there’s been discussion as to whether “Legends of Tomorrow” can keep up the scale of the crazy sci-fi adventure on an ongoing basis. I’ve been worried about “iZombie” because it reminds me so much of “Pushing Daisies,” which barely squeaked into half a second season, and I’m thrilled that they’ll be continuing for a third year!

So…after the Flash stops Zoom at the end of this season, what super-speed feats, adventures, guest stars and threats do you want to see in season three?
