This probably wasn't intentional but the unexpected continuity of Gina wearing a turtleneck in this episode after being petrified of catching Rosa's cold episode last week and LAUGHING when her horoscope told her to wear a cowl neck was kind of great.

Kind of off-topic, I guess, but given the news recently, I want to hear people's thoughts about the show and how it exists in the greater context of the NYPD in the real world. Can you successfully disassociate the show and its comedy from the horrific things happening in real life, or are things happening in the show

The review makes a really interesting point about comedians transitioning into real acting and I agree that the ostensible "funny" people on the show are sometimes overlooked because it's more or less their job to be funny, because if this TV season has proven anything, it's that sitcom acting is a wildly different

I honestly think I would enjoy that more than separate shows. Stephen Amell and Grant Gustin work so great together.

Yeah, I actually like Iris. Like, when she was all googly-eyed over Oliver and rambling about him being on her list of three? Legitimately adorable and charming! Any time there's drama with her and Eddie or her and her dad? Like instant Ambien, I tell ya.

I have no idea why people don't like him. All his little asides and quips are delivered really well and really naturally, and his enthusiasm is infectious.

For me, her sub-plots and side stories are just so incredibly dull in comparison to the rest of the show. I don't find her actively objectionable like I used to find Laurel, it's just….ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ. Her story with Eddie/Flash in this ep was a prime example.

I love that lingering shot with just Dig's head in the frame after Barry zooms away like he can't believe his eyes. It was hilarious and kind of sitcommy and not the kind of shot Arrow would ever even attempt.

I wouldn't say he's my favorite but damn if I'm not kind of fond of him after last week's episode where he was high on morphine.

I think he said "that man" but my eyes kind of bugged out for a moment too.

Really fun ep but I could've done without the ten minutes of Iris/Eddie/Barry waffle at the start. I would've given it an A if not for those scenes.

Except little kid Bruce Wayne is kind of the most interesting thing about the show right now.

What the heck, he's 36? He's so babyfaced and his hair was so stupid for so long on SNL, I thought he was like 18 when he started there.

I actually think what separates Jake/Amy from Jim/Pam & Ben/Leslie is that I think it's very obvious they aren't ready to be together yet. Intentionally or not, the writers have filled both Jake and Amy to the brim with so many flaws and dysfunction, together and apart, that while I could imagine Jim/Pam & Ben/Leslie

I always thought it was kind of funny how people's biggest concern for YEARS was that they'd built up the Mother so much they could never cast someone who could live up to those expectations and who the audience would instantly fall in love with. Except they somehow miraculously did find the most perfect person to

I did too. It was like the only good thing about S2.

I don't agree with LaToya a lot of the time, but she always makes a solid argument for why she likes/dislikes an episode and that's all you can ask for - TV is always going to be subjective. There are a lot of other crappy reviewers who clearly aren't paying attention to the show and writing a lot of half-baked crud,

I usually dislike 'nerdy guy hero worships cool guy' friendships, but Joe Lo Truglio is so hilariously earnest and unironic when he has to deliver lines like 'I honestly think you are the greatest man who ever lived' that I'm pretty okay with it.

I swear Samberg looked straight into the camera after that moment and made a face like it was an episode of The Office.

If this show has given us nothing, I'm glad I now know what Andre Braugher's upper thighs look like. Man was workin' those jogging shorts, let me tell ya
