It occurred to me while watching this episode just how crazy it is that Hernando doesn't know about the cluster yet. Like, Bug knows but Hernando doesn't?!?

Whenever possible (i.e. whenever I don't forget) I go by the name spellings in the episode end credits.

That Amanita tampon scene might crack my top 10 TV moments of all time. I love it so much.

Thanks! This is very helpful.

I really thought y'all were going to think I was strange for complimenting him despite his limited screentime. I clearly underestimated the charismatic pull of Sukku Son and I've never been happier to be wrong.

In retrospect, they should've just skipped giving this version of J'onn telepathic abilities. It's clearly something that hurts the show more than it helps it given how often the writers have to write around it.

I distinctly remember her casually snapping a guy's neck at one point last season. I think in "Red Faced"?

"Obviously God's Not Dead, Kevin Sorbo's still getting work."

I think a big part of the issue is not just a desire to avoid causing offense, but a desire to let other kids experience the joy and fun you so beautifully describe in your post. You're absolutely right that the idea of traveling to a mystical place and getting superpowers is a fun one, but right now white kids…

It's not too early. Give Chyler Leigh everything!

My understanding is that WOT will still exist, but it's going to be written by staff writers rather than freelancers (which is what LaToya, Les, Dennis, Dan, and I are). That's actually how it used to be a couple years ago back when Erik, Todd, and Sonia ran the feature so there's no need to fear the worst yet. I'm…

Right and therein lies the problem. If someone is bothering/hitting on your girlfriend and she specifically asks you not to get involved, you shouldn't get involved even if you personally feel jealous/threatened. You should trust her and respect her agency. That Mon-El can't do that (and has had a problem listening to…

The problem is, Mon-El wasn't acting out of a desire to save the planet. He was acting almost exclusively out of a desire to defend his relationship with Kara/take down a potential romantic rival. Saving the Earth might be a nice side effect, but Mon-El spent the whole episode talking about romantic jealously not…

I believe he was caught by Superman and put away in prison. Lillian's "two Luthors left" line was odd but I think she just meant "left out in the world."

I had the exact same Alex costume thoughts as you. I was ready to praise the hell out of the episode for placing such a big clue in plain sight. But, nope.

Damn.

That's what I'm here for!

It's very possible. But even so, couldn't they just make another?

Yeah if they are literally just giving away diamonds, setting up a complex human trafficking ring of perfect specimens in order to get diamonds seems… overly complicated.

Remember that one time Alex had a supersuit that made her as strong as Kara? Maybe that could come in handy at some point on any one of these endlessly dangerous missions?
