Peacemaker vs Naomi
The Taste Buds are pitting two new shows, Peacemaker and Naomi, against each other on an all-new Superhero Show Show.
On an all-new, all-different episode of The Superhero Show Show, Cassie is back! And she's leading Katelynn and Ryan down the path of new show talkie-talk. First up is HBO's Peacemaker, starring John Cena's character from The Suicide Squad! Some of that gang is back, along with a few new characters, as we watch Peacemaker try and acclimate to normal life after years in prison and being in the Suicide Squad.
Then, before the Naomi talk, the Taste Buds discuss the news about the CW being acquired, and what that could mean for their podcast. Can we imagine a world where there are no more comic book-based CW shows to cover? Only every second of every day, baby!
Finally, we get to the Pull List, where the Taste Buds cover every other TV show based on a comic book, including new episodes of Batwoman, Legends of Tomorrow, Superman and Lois, and the aforementioned Naomi, all of which are CW shows! See? Do you see what life would be like without the CW? Crazy!
