We don't have to wonder if Superman & Lois will be cancelled this time, as it's already been revealed that season four is the end. For what it's worth, The CW didn't cancel it as much as Warner Bros Television didn't want the show to continue. A Superman feature film is coming in 2025 and the character's owner didn't want two versions in the marketplace at the same time.  If the final season of Superman & Lois is popular enough in the ratings, could the series be revived someday? Stay tuned.

A DC Comics superhero series airing on The CW television network, the Superman & Lois TV show stars Tyler Hoechlin, Elizabeth Tulloch, Alex Garfin, Michael Bishop, and Michael Cudlitz.

After an agonizing, 16-month wait, Superman & Lois on Monday finally unpaused the Man of Steel’s fatal face-off against Bizarro-Doomsday. And if you were actually able to see the final season premiere through your tears, you might have noticed the planting of several very significant seeds.

The final season of any beloved series always feels bittersweet, but it feels doubly so for Superman & Lois. On top of the fan-favorite adaptation being cut from its planned seven-season run to just four, the end of the series also represents the end of a long-standing partnership between DC Comics and The CW.

The network first collaborated with DC for 2001’s Smallville back when it was still called The WB Network and hit the zenith of its partnership with the Arrowverse beginning in 2012. Though not set in the Arrowverse continuity, Superman & Lois is the last remaining vestige of it and the DC/CW partnership as a whole. Once it’s done, that’s it.

Avatar Kyoshi is widely regarded as one of the strongest incarnations of the Avatar. She was decisive in her role as the peacekeeper between the spirits and the four nations. As the Earth Bending Avatar, she was the predecessor to Avatar Roku, the founder of the Dai Li and the Kyoshi Warriors, and lived up to the age of 230 years.

At 230, Kyoshi was the most long-lived human that we have seen in the show. While earthbenders tend to have an unusually long lifespan in Avatar: The Last Airbender (such as Bumi still being one of the strongest Earthbenders at 112 years old), the novels might have revealed how Kyoshi might have unlocked the power to live for as long as she did.

The live-action adaptation of “Avatar: The Last Airbender” has now landed on Netflix! Based on the beloved animated series, the show dives into a world where nations clash based on their mastery of the elements.

While the Fire Nation burns, the Earth Kingdom crumbles, and the Water Tribes struggle to survive, the once-peaceful Air Nomads seem all but extinguished. But hope arrives in the form of Aang, a young boy who discovers he’s the last Airbender and the Avatar, the only one who can bridge the divides and restore balance.

Despite the disappointing reviews of Netflix’s live-action adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender, one character gave a peak moment in the series for the fandom. Yvonne Chapman played Avatar Kyoshi, a past Avatar two reigns before Aang and the Last Earthbender, in the series. Kyoshi had a more prominent role than in the animated series, which only featured her in four episodes during its three-season run.

In the canon of great television intros, few hit harder than the opening number of Nickelodeon’s Avatar: The Last Airbender.

Each episode of the animated series begins with a brief rundown of the show’s setting and concept, as recited by the character Katara (voiced by Mae Whitman). In just under a minute, Katara gets viewers up to date with everything they need to know to enjoy the proceedings, saying:

“Water. Earth. Fire. Air. Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked. Only the Avatar, master of all four elements, could stop them. But when the world needed him most, he vanished. A hundred years passed and my brother and I discovered the new Avatar – an Airbender named Aang. And although his airbending skills are great he has a lot to learn before he’s ready to save anyone. But...

Can we get a yip-yip? After quite a long wait, the celebrated children's series "Avatar: The Last Airbender" has taken the massive leap from animation to live-action. Although mileage may vary on exactly how well Netflix pulled off this ambitious feat of adaptation, the characters that fans have known and loved have all been reimagined through the lens of a much more streamlined and straightforward version of the same story.

The debut season follows Aang (Gordon Cormier), the reincarnated Avatar and master of the four elements, as he struggles to come to grips with his disappearance from the world a hundred years prior. The stunning opening sequence of the premiere depicts this very event in all its tragic detail, beginning with Aang's reveal that he is the long-prophesied savior of the world and continuing through to the conquering Fire Nation's genocide of the airbenders.

Exclusive: Yvonne Chapman, who heavily recurred as villain Zhilan on the first season of the CW’s Kung Fu, has been promoted to series regular for Season 2.

For Kung Fu season one, all roads lead back to the Shaolin monastery. Written by showrunners Christina M. Kim and Robert Berens, the season ender brings Nicky (Olivia Liang) and Zhilan (Yvonne Chapman) back to the battle grounds of their first encounter to access the ancient forge of bian ge, the all-encompassing force that powers the ancient Warrior weapons.

Upon learning that her foe has stationed armed forces outside her family’s home in San Francisco, where the Shen’s prepare for Althea’s (Shannon Dang) and Dennis’ (Tony Chung) matrimonial tea ceremony, Nicky helps Zhilan unlock the puzzle-laden door to the forge.

Henry, Evan, and Nicky's trip to Canada started slow and ended, well, slow.

The writing brought about a solo journey for Nicky, leaving the two men to interact and bond. Sadly, only one of those two plot points succeeded.

Seeing Evan and Henry talking with each other and getting along was a lovely change from their usual tense dynamic.

They both learned to respect each other, and most importantly, to respect Nicky and her emotional choices. The strong evolution of their...
