HBO's Lanterns just killed off its biggest star in the pilot — Chanel, Brandon & Sharmane recap DC's answer to True Detective. 🟢Welcome back to We Was Watching, the podcast where Chanel, Brandon & Sharmane break down the shows everyone's talking about. This week we're recapping Lanterns Season 1 Episode 1 — the HBO Max premiere from Damon Lindelof (Watchmen) that reinvents Green Lantern as a gritty western-noir mystery.We get into ALL of it: young John Stewart's unsettling childhood, aged hotshot Hal Jordan (Kyle Chandler) reluctantly training his successor John (Aaron Pierre), the "Halogram" consciousness-backup twist, and the coded message that drags them to Rushville, Nebraska — where a mass shooting turns out to be something far stranger. We break down Sheriff Kerry Kane (Kelly Macdonald), the Macon family and their alien-hunting militia, the Obama-quiz interrogation of Waylon Sanders, Abin Sur and the ring's origin, and that jaw-dropping final scene set in 2026. So… who killed Hal Jordan? Full spoiler-filled review, breakdown, and ending explained.Hit play and watch along with us. ▶️👍 Enjoyed this recap?
