"Hey I know that I kissed you earlier and both your body language and your actual language made it clear that you didn't want that, but, what if I now give you a speech declaring my love for you? Is this passive aggressive enough? Am I doing this right?"

"guys like Winn don't usually end up with girls like Kara"
Guys like Winn generally don't end up with actual literal space aliens, no.

Jimmy's puppet episode was sublime.

"Damn it man, she doesn't like you fucking move on."
One of the two* easiest ways to move on from an attraction is to get that person out of your life ASAP. Winn works with Kara, both Kara-human and Kara-Supergirl, in a way wherein he feels like her life might be in danger if he isn't there working. He would basically

"the shattering glass hologram thingy"
He's the Toyman. He somehow is able to invent technology which doesn't exist on Earth. It's his gift, his curse.

Well he did kiss a friend of his who has never ever made any romantic gestures towards him and who he knows is attracted to someone else. That's kind of evil in the manipulative sense.

Chris Carter is a millennial now? I learn cool stuff online every day!

"We Danvers girls ruin men"
The show's been consistently odd about how other characters respond to the attraction that Winn has for Kara. No one has said anything like "Winn, she's not into you" or even warned Kara (who _is_ _literally_ an alien) that Winn's into her. Alex's dialogue in that last scene is the show one

There's approximately 17 hours left before the end of human civilization and death of every human being above ground. What does the show want us to care about with that looming timer?
1 Why Erica hates evos.
2 Whether Matt Parkman can get watches for his ex-wife and kid
3 A HUGE confrontation between Luke and Joanne

The geography on this show has really annoyed me. It's middling between "just plain wrong" to "almost makes sense".

OH that explains why they decided 10 episodes (big break) 3 episodes. Okay.

Oh yeah I'm not saying that LINCOLN ROCKWELL AIRPORT was the moment where I suddenly thought the show made no sense. But it just felt like an odd choice

Yes I provided an answer to my own question. Thanks. :-)

Where are the stats on streaming #s for Amazon Prime? Apparently nowhere?

This does seem like the most … solid explanation of how things worked in Season 1. But at the same time that makes me afraid that it's somehow missing something that the show hasn't shown us yet.

Why assume that's our universe?

Yeah. In the book somehow Frank's art seems to have a spiritual, maybe even metaphysical quality to it. The show really briefly touches on that aspect.

In our reality, and he founded it in 1959.

Well…

As the other comment says, it sounds like the US did join the Second World War as an Allied power but in a much weaker and less effective way. So Pearl Harbor or something similar to it still happened and the US fought a (losing) war against the Japanese in the Pacific, and the European/North African theatres may have
