#452: Infinity, Inc on Stargirl and the Award for Best Supporting Actress

The Superhero Show Show #452

Stargirl vs Infinity, Inc!

It’s the debut of Infinity, Inc on Stargirl, plus X-Men: The Animated Series and the Shushie for Best Supporting Actress!

On an all-new, all-different episode of The Superhero Show Show, Stargirl takes center stage, and the Taste Buds discuss whether this works as an episode of Stargirl, or just as a backdoor pilot for an Infinity, Inc. show! Courtney and Jade have found Jade’s brother, and he comes from a super orphanage! Will they be able to get out of there without a fight? Also, Pat and Shade are still stuck in the Shadowland, and they need to use Courtney as their guiding light to get out of there. How well do these plotlines work together? And how much are we looking forward to an Infinity, Inc. show?

But before all of that, it’s time for the prestigious Shushie Awards. This week, it’s time for the award for Best Supporting Actress. Resident Alien has been a dominant force in the Shushies so far this season, and that show has several award-caliber supporting actresses. Does the domination continue tonight?

Finally, the Taste Buds fly to X-TASmania to watch the final episode of season 4 (according to iMDB), Family Ties! Instead of Alex P. Keaton and his sister Mallory, we get Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch! Those two wacky mutants find out that the dying man they thought was their father was not their father at all, and of course the X-Men have to get mixed into the shenanigans!

All of that, plus discussions on this week’s Pennyworth and The Walking Dead! It’s almost too much show!

Also, don’t forget to:

While Americans overwhelmingly support the right of an individual to make their own decisions about abortion, unfortunately, that right is no longer protected everywhere in the U.S.

The Supreme Court overturned Roe versus Wade on June 24th.

Abortion is a basic healthcare need for the millions of people who can become pregnant. Everyone should have the freedom to decide what’s best for themselves and their families, including when it comes to ending a pregnancy. This decision has dire consequences for individual health and safety, and could have harsh repercussions for other landmark decisions.

Restricting access to comprehensive reproductive care, including abortion, threatens the health and independence of all Americans. Even if you live in a state where abortion rights are upheld, access to safe medical procedures shouldn’t be determined by location, and it shouldn’t be the privilege of a small few.

You can help by donating to local abortion funds. To find out where to donate for each state, visit donations4abortion.com

1.  Shout Your Abortion is a campaign to normalize abortion.

2. Don’t Ban Equality is a campaign for companies to take a stand against abortion restrictions.

3. Abortion.cafe has information about where to find clinics.

4. PlanCPills.org provides early at-home abortion pills that you can keep in your medicine cabinet. And five.
