The usual teen romantic comedy has a very simple formula: boy meets girls; they fall in love; boy loses girl; boy gets girl.
With Love, Simon you do not just get the formula beginning with boy meets boy. It’s not quite that simple, and it’s certainly more rewarding.
Simon Speir is just like every seventeen-year old kid – he drinks way too much iced coffee; hits the carbs way too much, and likes a good party.
He just has one big secret – he’s gay. And he wants a grand romance.
Love, Simon comes out on March 16th.
Along with the announcement that Legends of Tomorrow’s encounters with the Justice society of America came the news that Rex ‘Hourman’ Tyler would be joined by Obsidian, Stargirl and Dr. Mid-Nite (the roles are, as yet, uncast).
They will be facing off against a collection of villains from Greg Berlanti’s DCTV Universe: Malcolm Merlyn, Damien Dahrk, Captain cold and Reverse-Flash.
Oh! There was also a first look trailer. Check it out after the break.

Greg Berlanti (Supergirl, Arrow, The Flash) strikes again! The CW Network should just change its name to the CWGB or DCTV and be done with it. How many shows does Greg Berlanti and the gang at DC now have on the CW? They have their super hero tv formula down to a science now and it’s a formula that I love. In their latest spin-off Legends of Tomorrow, a bunch of secondary characters from Arrow and The Flash are brought together by rogue time traveller Rip Hunter (Doctor Who’s Arthur Darvill) to form a team of time traveling heroes and villains whose goal is to stop the immortal Vandal Savage (Casper Crump).
Rip Hunter wants to change history. Find out why when DC’s Legends of Tomorrow premieres on The CW on Thursday, January 21st.
In the meantime, check out the latest teaser after the break.

Supergirl (CBS, Mondays, 8/7C) makes its timeslot premiere this week and, in an unusual turn, its second episode – Stronger Together – is actually better than the pilot.
Kara learns that superheroics are not easy – regardless of how much power you have – and gets raked over the coals in the press before figuring out how to go about doing her job.
The series premiere of Supergirl opened as the season’s top drawing new series in the Nielsens for live + same day ratings in the 18-49 demographic, and in total viewers.
The Supergirl premiere played well to both male and female demos. For more, follow the jump.
As a guy who grew up with comics and remembers picking up Supergirl’s first ever comics appearance off of one of those ‘Hey, Kids! Comics!’ racks that used to be in grocery stores across the continent, I have to say that the pilot for Supergirl (Monday, 8:30/7:30C then weekly at 8/9C)) was something I was definitely looking forward to seeing.
Is it great? No, not quite. But it is very, very good.
The Flash: The Complete First Season is a welcome addition to the library of TV and movie superhero adventures. The (not surprisingly) fast-paced series was well received by critics, fanboys/girls and the general audience with equal enthusiasm.
The DVD/Blu-Ray sets provide a lovely package combining the show’s first 22 episodes and over three hours of special features.
