Sorry, it isn’t a spin-off of the Aquaboy Smallville episode, but it is patterned after Smallville, and will be produced by the same people.
Woo hoo!
Oh boy,now i won’t have to rent Man From Atlantis from netflix
An Aquaman show.
Are you effing kidding me? An Aquaman show? Eh, I’ll watch, but Aquaman? I’m just not seeing it. I’d rather see a “grounded” Wonder Girl (Cassie, not Donna) show, but I’m not sure how you would ground the mythological aspects.
No love for the GL. Animated or live action. Just make it happen and make it decent.
Isn’t Smallville all soap opera-y and stuff?
In the pilot episode Aquaman fucks a fish!
I second the vote for a Cassie Sandsmark/Wonder Girl show.
Heh.
I just want to see him attack Vimy Ridge.
So when are going to get “Gotham: the Adventures of young Bruce Wayne”?
I hope there’s an episode dedicated to his first wet dream!
Ya know I’m not really a big fan of soap-opera-y type shows.
Unless, of course, some of the characters in the show happen to have ridged foreheads, drink blood wine and like to kill shit in the name of "honor; THEN I’m all over that shit!
Ugh, Aquaman. Why can’t they do Green Lantern, instead? I’d give up both of my kidneys for a decent GL show.
That was one of the ideas that Gough and Millar pitched to the WB when they were also pitching Smallville. The network decided that a globe-trotting Bruce Wayne show would be more expensive than a show rooted in one location, so they made the Bruce Wayne idea into Batman Begins instead.
So, in the interests of economy, is Aquaman going to be hanging out in a fishing pond somewhere near Smallville for the bulk of the series?
…and considering how Smallville’s mostly filmed in Canada, does that mean much of the season will involve Aquaman chipping holes in ice layers? The telepathy would, at least, make smelting a whole lot easier.
I don’t think it’s going to take place in the same “universe” as Smallville, which is too bad, because the show is just begging for crossovers with Smallville. Also, it’ll be a young Aquaman, before he gets called that. Being young, he’ll probably not have control of his full powers yet either.
What I hope it doesn’t turn into is one big pro-environmental thing, where the guy just runs around (well, swims around) saving the ocean from evil corporate polluters.
