DC’s Lanterns TV series is finally over, and there was barely a construct to be seen in the show. But what it lacks in superpowers, it replaces with great writing, entertaining performances, and a well-executed origin story for DC’s Green Lantern.

A series of related shorts, often shown on a TV screen.
Columbo is the Antagonist
I’ve been watching a lot of Columbo lately, and I’ve noticed something about the way the stories are framed that make it interesting. Of course, I’m not the only person to notice, but I haven’t seen much discussion about it online.
Lots of Setup and No Payoff
The Boys recently reached its final episode and it wasn’t well received. We were promised “scorched earth” and what we got barely singed the White House lawn. It’s symbolic of the main problem with the show, especially in later seasons. Lots of setup and no payoff.
