There is no way any meaningful part of Chuck is in those glasses. Remember how she lost signal in the tunnels in previous episodes? That is not a thing that could happen if the AI system was onboard. And also, mad science or not, there is just not room, and why the ever living heck would doctor midnight carry his assistant on his face where it would be vulnerable to punching?

The actual AI is on a colossal server farm somewhere, likely as a hidden background process.

I figure Chuck screamed because he figured Beth was about to bite it.

[up] Interesting!

What next... Danielle Panabaker as their version of Killer Frost, unless she doesn't exist on Earth-2?

She might not. Killer Frost is a Firestorm character, and that whole branch of DC doesn't have an Earth-2 equivalent iirc.

Since Stargirl seems to be going for a more direct adaptation of the comics' Earth-2 rather than the other series' "universe full of dopplegangers" approach, it's a toss up whether any of the characters not associated with the concept are going to appear.

Jay Garrick was a shoe in because he's one of the defining Earth-2 characters, it's just a surprise that he's played by the same guy.

He's also the original TV show Flash.

So it's a grandfathered in in-joke.

Stargirl Reportedly 'On the Bubble' for a Season 3 Renewal

The series is described as "on the bubble," according to USA Today. The CW had already renewed the series for a second season, set to air later this year. The show's first season aired in 2020, with each of its 13 episodes first streaming on DC Universe before airing on The CW the following day.

The CW has already announced that Superman & Lois, The Flash, Legends of Tomorrow and Batwoman have been renewed. The network announced the cancellation of Supergirl last year, and the show is currently airing its sixth and final season. Black Lightning has also been canceled by the network, with that series now airing its fourth and final season.

That would be a real shame if it gets axed.

[up] I wonder if it'd Channel Hop; maybe a network like BBC Studios or ITV could pick it up, as they've got the budget for it; and ITV Studios are global, anyway.

But would this be risky for the series?

[up] It would be more likely for Stargirl to hop onto Warner's own HBO Max than unrelated British production companies. That was the case for fellow DC Universe series Doom Patrol (2019) and Titans.

[up] I see; I thought they were big-budget, as Line of Duty probably costs as much to make as Stargirl, even though it doesn't have as many special effects.

I wonder if Stargirl's "on the bubble" status has anything to do with the accusations against Geoff Johns.

By now, it should be clear to all except the most dense of us that sheep are secretly conspiring to kill us all and steal our pants.

Yeah, they are going to have to deal with the fact that these are superheroes operating in a small town. Now that the original threat they formed to stop is gone, it's gonna take some plot shenanigans for Blue Valley to actually need a new JSA defending it.
