    The Rookie Season 7, Episode 13, "Three Billboards," finally highlights the show's newest recruit, Miles Penn, with an episode tying into his past as a promising football player. Meanwhile, as John Nolan and Bailey Nune try to adopt, billboards besmirching Nolan's reputation show up around Los Angeles. A seemingly random car bombing in the beginning of the story ties neatly into the larger plotline, which ends with Penn truly feeling like one of the team.

Some fans were eager for the new DC Universe, either for a change in tone or, at least, a cohesive vision. Others were incensed that the DC Extended Universe ended unceremoniously. From raging against Gunn on social media to the intriguing idea of selling the Snyderverse to Netflix, they aren't ready to let this universe go.

    The following contains spoilers for Daredevil: Born Again Season 1, now streaming on Disney+ and potential spoilers about Season 2, now filming. Even before writing about entertainment full-time, I always hunted for spoilers about upcoming shows and films. The surprise of discovery when watching something can be fulfilling, but curiosity often gets the better of me. Besides, nothing I've learned has ever "ruined" a story for me, and sometimes it helps me appreciate what we get even more.
