EPISODE DC EASTER EGGS: Season 1 Episode 1 “Pilot, Part I” Article: http://comicbook.com/2016/01/22/dcs-legends-of-tomorrow-easter-eggs-and-dc-comics-references-in-/ Boba Fett mention by Captain Cold Is that a Jonas Quantum reference? Rip Hunter: Time Master first appeared in Showcase in 1959 The Waverider -- Rip Hunter's timeship -- is in fact named after Waverider, a time-traveling superhero and former member of the Linear Men. Darth Vader and Boba Fett both get name-dropped here as looking like Chronos. Rip Hunter's study/time lab Peter Francis James plays the role of Dr. Aldus Boardman on DC's Legends of Tomorrow. The character, unique to the TV show, first appeared during the Arrow/The Flash crossover. Roch is a city that was for a time the home of Hawkman and Hawkgirl. On tonight's series premiere of DC's Legends of Tomorrow, The CW introduced Chronos. This feels a lot like Booster Gold Vol. 2. Arrow and The Flash: ARROW NEWS: 2016 Fall TV Scoop (Date: 2 June 2016) TVLine: Season 5 will introduce the recurring role of a cocksure/reckless ex-Marine turned vigilante. Showrunner Wendy Mericle states that the season 5 flashbacks will likely reveal how Ollie got the Bratva tattoo and learned to speak Russian.

Saying that he has faith The CW's annual superhero crossover event will be “the biggest one ever,” Pedowitz declined to provide any specific details. It seems likely, based on past history, that the planned crossover will take place in December, prior to the shows' midseason finales.

During an interview with The Mirror, she expressed her frustration with the disconnect between DC's films and television series, why the Suicide Squad was axed from the show and more. "We were about season two when they started telling us we had to start basically killing off the Suicide Squad that we were starting to build on our own," Holland recalled. "We were actually trying to build that on our own on the show, and I guess once DC found out they were going to be doing their own movie of it, we had to ax all of the characters before we even got to show them, which was a little annoying at first.” Link: http://www.comicbookresources.com/article/willa-holland-calls-out-wb-for-shutting-down-arrows-plans-for-the-suicide-squad GENERAL DC TV NEWS ‘DC's Legends of Tomorrow': Ciara Renee to Depart (Date: 19 May 2016) From Deadline: According to Marc Guggenheim, when they were going through the list of characters they could bring back for season 2, bringing back Hawkman and Hawkgirl felt forced; after all, the idea behind Legends was to have a rotating team of characters.

Today’s Guest: Marc Guggenheim, showrunner of “Arrow” and “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow” on The CW, writer of comic books including “Arrow 2.5,” “The Infinite Adventures of Jonas Quantum,” “Stringers,” “The Rocketeer at War!” and “Squadron Sinister,” author of Overwatch. MARC GUGGENHEIM podcast excerpt: "The simultaneous shooting schedule of the Arrow/The Flash/DC's Legends of Tomorrow crossover and two-hour pilot has been a much bigger headache than dealing with the actors' agents and managers. The scheduling is really, really hard. It was all filmed at the same time. It requires a tremendous amount of creativity on the part of the producers and the assistant directors on the various shows who handle scheduling. Not easy! And not easy on the actors who sometimes have to run from one set to the other. We're all now recovering from the scheduling mishegas. That said, we do it because the end result is so worthwhile. And the end result is awesome. As I said to the 'Arrow' crew yesterday, a quadruple axle is far more impressive than a double axel. People are going to watch these four hours of television and I think it's going to blow their minds!"Key interview moments:• 6:45 "Arrow" and "DC Legends of Tomorrow" showrunner Marc Guggenheim explains why he makes time to create and write comic books, fiction, and even two upcoming film scripts;• 33:20 Spoiler Alert: Sara Lance lives, has a final night of passion with girlfriend Nyssa al Ghul in Guggenheim's Arrow 2.5 comic book, dies in Season 3 and is reborn in Season 4;• 41:10 Guggenheim says the four-hour "Arrow"/"The Flash"/"DC Legends of Tomorrow" crossover was a nightmare to schedule and shoot but the result is "awesome."Subscribe to Mr. Media for FREE on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=MrMediaRadioFor more interviews like this one: http://www.MrMedia.com What is Mr. Media® Interviews?

Today's Guest: DC Legends of Tomorrow and Arrow showrunner Marc Guggenheim, writer of comic books including "Arrow 2.5," "The Infinite Adventures of Jonas Quantum," "Stringers," "The Rocketeer at War!" and "Squadron Sinister," author of Overwatch. Watch this exclusive Mr. Media interview with Arrow showrunner Marc Guggenheim by clicking on the video player above! Mr. Media is recorded live before a studio audience of Olicity ‘shippers who won’t be happy until they’re sitting in a tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g… in the NEW new media capital of the world… St. Petersburg, Florida! Marc Guggenheim is one of those onion guys, where every time you peel back a layer, two more costumed characters appear in its place. A year ago, when he first appeared on Mr. Media, we spent most our time talking about his first novel, the out-of-control shadow government story of Overwatch. That, and a bit about his day job as writer and producer of The CW’s hit show “Arrow,” which had just spun off “The Flash.” Today, this guy has got superheroes coming out of his eyes, ears and, well, everywhere else. MARC GUGGENHEIM podcast excerpt: "The simultaneous shooting schedule of the Arrow/The Flash/DC's Legends of Tomorrow crossover and two-hour pilot has been a much bigger headache than dealing with the actors' agents and managers. The scheduling is really, really hard. It was all filmed at the same time. It requires a tremendous amount of creativity on the part of the producers and the assistant directors on the various shows who handle scheduling. Not easy! And not easy on the actors who sometimes have to run from one set to the other. We're all now recovering from the scheduling mishegas. That said, we do it because the end result is so worthwhile. And the end result is awesome. As I said to the 'Arrow' crew yesterday, a quadruple axle is far more impressive than a double axel. People are going to watch these four hours of television and I think it's going to blow their minds!" You can LISTEN to this interview with MARC GUGGENHEIM, showrunner of ARROW and DC's LEGENDS OF TOMORROW on The CW, by clicking the audio player above! Guggenheim is now the showrunner for “Arrow” –in its fourth season – and its upcoming spinoff, “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow,” which will bring together The Atom, Firestorm, Hawkman, Hawkgirl, Captain Cold, Heatwave, Rip Hunter, White Canary, and more. MARC GUGGENHEIM podcast excerpt: "Spoiler Alert for people who haven't seen Season 3 of 'Arrow': Sara Lance (the original Canary) dies! And by the way, Spoiler Alert: In Season 4 she comes back to life! We love Caity Lotz and we love the character of Sara Lance. It was something were always planning on doing." He’s also the guy that raised “Constantine” from last season’s ashes and made millions wonder what the NBC show could have been if it had come from his keyboard. But TV represents just a fraction of the characters in his sandbox. MARC GUGGENHEIM podcast excerpt: "I value my collaboration with Greg Berlanti. But it's also important for me to establish an identity as a writer separate and apart from him. I love comic books and I probably would have become a comic book writer first if that path had been offered to me." He has also found time to write a rack’s worth of new comics this year, include Arrow 2.5 for DC, The Infinite Adventures of Jonas Quantum for Legendary, Stringers for Oni Press, and The Rocketeer at War! for IDW. Earlier this year, he wrote a Squadron Sinister series for Marvel. And when he goes home, he can’t escape the superhero business: wife Tara Butters is co-showrunner of Marvel’s “Agent Carter” on ABC. Oh, and he is an indefatiguable sharer on Twitter, Facebook, and Tumblr. Key interview moments: • 6:45 "Arrow" and "DC Legends of Tomorrow" showrunner Marc Guggenheim explains why he makes time to create and write comic books, fiction,
