Wally was such a delight. I REALLY hope they get Iris out next ep.

Ramsey original British Kitchen Nightmares are close to the truth as is the F Word.

ABC just leaked a few images from part 2 of the finale. I’ll attach one below:

Agree with the whole review 100%. All the pieces moved forward. For some reason tonight’s Supergirl and Batwoman both had me forgiving past contrivances and I felt myself freed to, among other things, let Kara have a thing for William (go ahead show, do your worst!) ... Alex and Kelly (oh, okay) ... & On BW ... Kate

“You can just go back in time/and give it another shot”

Jon Cryer is such a good Lex, I momentarially forgot who he was during that scene with Lena. For a moment I got swept up in the feeling of a big brother trying to mentor his little sister and guide her away from making the same mistakes he made. Then I came to my senses and was shocked at how I found myself being

well, the time travellers she knows include the Legends, who almost borked the whole world and now try to *preserve* the timeline, and the Flash, who has erased how many friends and relatives from existence by now?

About CoIE screwing up this show’s pacing, yeah, crossovers do that in the comics too. The only reason to do it was so Supergirl and the Flash and Batwo-Man could team up, and ... well, we haven’t had any payoff to speak of.

Good things this week:

“Nothing can change the past. Believe me, I’ve tried”

That’s a nice nod to the last episode.  And also a weird thing to say for someone who knows so many time travelers who do just that.

I’m still struggling with Andrea’s motive. Maybe because “releasing technology that could easily be exploited to manipulate humanity on a wide scale” stacks up so much higher than “well, it’s my father’s company...”

Here’s hoping the pregnancy is not just good news for the family but gives the show a chance to give us some strong character focused episodes for the rest of the cast to work around it. 

I agree this was a solid episode that looks to be steering a promising direction for the future. It was also the first time the themes about technology felt like they were well-executed without necessarily being hamfisted about it.

Yeah this episode sure happened, I don’t even know what to say since pretty much nothing of it stuck around for me. I do agree about Crisis, that really should have been a season finale event that every show was building towards instead of something that was just a thing.

-Did I hallucinate the Xena reboot into existence? No, it’s just a VR scene.

That dove killed me. This is a show that knows their audience. 

I wonder if it’s just that Stella Maeve just gave birth and might not want to do another season, and they’re already down Q — so just go out relatively on top and be done with it.

I’m genuinely gutted by this news, okay season 5 hasn’t been the show’s best but it’s still been very solid, and given that they’ve had to deal with losing what was ostensibly the show’s lead character (at least initially) it’s done so brilliantly. Plus there’s so little genre fare that’s any good right now that it’s

We’ll always have “Oh, huh, whales grok time loops.”

Big props on using Fen for the header picture. Then negative props for not listing her in the main cast (although I’m sure that was copy-pasted from Scifi’s cast list, still). Brittany Curran has been a scene-stealer for like three seasons now.
