Anybody watch Black Lightning?

I didn't remember it was on and my local channel was showing "This is us" after Flash.

How was it?

Will catch it on demand.

I caught it last night...I have mixed feelings.
I found the main character more appealing in his civilian identity as a high school principal. Black Lightning himself was kinda boring actually.
The fight scenes were very uninspired, and his powers just aren't that impressive. He's like a bargain basement Electro.

Hopefully it gets better.

I was going to check it out anyway but it sounds appealing that it isn't similar to the other CW shows.

Got it on the DVR, but wasn't able to watch it last night. My son did and liked it, so that's a good indicator for me.

I enjoyed it. Even updated as it is, it did feel to me much like the original 70s comic series.

I forgot about it too. honestly, since it isn't part of the rest of the Arrowverse I am passing on it. I barely can keep up with the shows I already like to watch without adding another

Saw it and really enjoyed it. As a teacher for two decades, I think I was most impressed with/pleased by the fact it looked and felt like a real school (having seen so many poorly created schools in TV shows over the years), but it was a good episode and launched the series impressively.

I hate the CW, with the exception of Legends of Tomorrow (which I stopped watching anyway)...never got into Arrow, I hate most of the Flash characters, and Supergirl is plain dumb.

I might watch one episode...it cannot be possible be worse than Supergirl.

[The Re-Rooter]

If it is available on Hulu I plan to check it out.
I was SO ****ed that they killed off Laurel in season 4 of Arrow that I stopped watching it. I really loved the first few Arrow and Flash seasons, maybe they need a change up in writers to add some fresh blood into storylines.
I watch Supergirl knowing that it is cheesy, which I think kinda works when you are telling a Superman story. I loved Lois and Clark despite how silly it was. And my daughters will watch Supergirl, so I highly encourage almost anything DC in the house (BVS not allowed. I seriously let my 14 yr old watch Deadpool but not BVS) :P

^^^Evil Laurel is back in Arrow. Flash right now with the Thinker storyline is really good.

Tried to watch..........SNOOZE

I enjoyed the show & it will rerun on Friday nite

Thought it was ok, we'll see after it settles in. I liked the actor playing BL, the teenage girls are annoying.

I'll give a few more episodes a try, but I didn't like the pilot episode.
