Bye-bye Smallville, Hello Blue Beetle?!?!

Geoff Johns tweeted the following:

BLUE BEETLE NEWS from DCE!! We have a live-action test of Jaime Reyes' scarab activating his suit. It. Is. Awesome.

Blue Beetle's going to appear in most of the Brave and the Bold's this year and we're hoping to develop a live-action show. Fingers crossed!

If I can break it out of the vault, I'll bring it to

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

I'm dubious... it could, of course, be PHENOMENAL, and I hope it will be, but DC live action tv... well, (imho), it tends to really suck.

I also worry that they'd jump straight to "Jaime finds a mysterious scarab", skip the legacy entirely, and basically write more of a Green Lantern story than a Blue Beetle one.

so, I have pretty much the same worries about the writing that I always have when I hear about a new tv show.

Ahahaha. I still think JLI would make an awesome sit-com (but they'd of course have to include Beetle and Booster).

But yeah, I hear ya. (OMG, if they do include the legacy aspect...flashbacks featuring Booster and Ted???)

AHHH SO EXCITED

I am trying not to get too excited because it's not even in development yet [and goblinthebamf has some good points there]... but more BATB yesss and I just...

JAIIIMEEEE (and family).... YES, PLEASE.

[red_confession]

Hell YES. Jaime needs more love.

[pellucere]

My thoughts went: a) OMG JAIME YES b) WHAT IF IT SUCKS OH NO c) WHAT IF IT DOESN'T END UP GETTING MADE OH NO. except B and C are depressing so I'll stick with fixating on A right now.

And also d), which is wondering what actors should be in it.
