Rex is just the best:
"I have a great many of them"/"You're gonna need *all* of them"
and then "You got old"

-We got Peak Felicity in this one.
-Not a great episode on its own but really happy at the direction it gave the show. No more Lazarus Pit, so deaths have stakes now (and just as important, it doesn't make us ask, "Why wouldn't you just use the Lazarus Pit?")
-Arrow's secret weapon: The comedic value in Laurel screwing

Maybe Wheel of Fortune is frowned upon in these parts, but that lady tonight needs some recognition. $77,000 before the Bonus Round!

Hmm, I guess Person of Interest is the only surprising and relevant addition we'll be getting for a while. (Still waiting for Better Call Saul and Mad Men too)

The first one was really messy and handled Ronnie's death rather poorly. The second one they casually killed a dude and didn't really address it, plus Barry went full "lone wolf" against Jay, which was *really* dumb considering he's a scientist and should know a sample size of 1 secretly-evil mentor is irrelevant.

Justin Hartley and Cassidy Freeman gave this show such a boost. I didn't tune into the show until the later seasons (Lana kinda sucks) but in them, it was a pretty fun, if goofy and repetitive (Clark races in Flash-style to save the day at the last minute), show.

And finds that the same episode as when he sees he's been replaced as the other half of Firestorm, ridding his life of any purpose whatsoever.

-This was by far the best episode this season and bolsters my feeling that the one and done "Metahumans of the Week" really drag the show down. Those episodes are a bad combo of CW drama and CBS procedural.

The Twitter account with Kanye from the VMAs dancing to different songs was infinitely better but wondering if music rights/internet/etc stuff got it deleted. (Yep: @kanye_dancing got suspended. what a shame.)

Had heard about those but hadn't seen them. Thanks for sharing. Hard for me to appreciate the May one because I can't stand the May character but the Skye one is great.

I've yet to (read: don't) watch AoS but I've seen people who do note that their choreography pales in comparison to Arrow's.

I mean, I'd be just fine with that.

IIRC you'd be fine with S1 of Rebels, but S2 does spoil some things thus far. I'd try to finish TCW first. S1 of Rebels is a short season so you'd be able to binge the show before VII comes out.

I took the trip last year and absolutely worth it

It really doesn't get enough credit for its tone. It starts with arcs that have serious elements (Ryloth, Geonosis) but they're serious within that story. Then you get to stuff like Umbara and the whole galaxy is going to crap.

I'm waiting for this to appear on a site (as a non-XD subscriber) and it's taking foreverrrrrrr (as is the Arrow review)

You don't need to watch Clone Wars or Rebels for Episode VII, but you definitely should. The Clone Wars series is waaaaaay better than the movie, which is just four episodes put together because the studio liked it/wanted to make money off it (IIRC). It wasn't supposed to be a movie.
If you only want to watch the good

I had never seen the McDonough one and now it plays like a day in the life of Damien Darhk getting ready for work (a la Lost)

Makes sense since she's dating Jake McDorman. According to this, some good model careers and a crap-ton of name changes. http://www.buzzfeed.com/bri…
