I hope she shows up, and the first people she meets are Charlie, Gary, Mona, and Constantine, none of whom have ever heard anything about Kendra before, and it takes some doing to convince them she’s a real Legend.

For a long while, I’ve really, REALLY wanted Damien Darhk as a 60's James Bond villain, and I’m hoping this is our chance to get it.

Legends might also play a decent sized role because, when the crossover films, the other shows will have been filming their new seasons for a while already, everyone will be tired, and it’ll be hectic fitting everything into the schedule. Since Legends isn’t coming back till 2020, the crossover will likely be the…

You’re doin’ God’s work.

My guess is Gideon will have something to do with getting timeline-altered Zari involved. She’s been shown to maintain records of previous timelines, so she’ll presumably remember Zari, including all the time they spent together doing Groundhog Day.

I’m still pissed that Lyra just disappeared between seasons without a mention.

I mean, this WAS, objectively speaking, a much bigger scoop than the Watergate thing, and involved the reporter breaking the story almost being killed multiple times to keep her quiet.

Don’t be so sure about getting Jon Cryer back. They had to do a lot of storytelling gymnastics this season because they only had him for three episodes, and being revived from death by the Monitor is a perfect excuse to give him a new (possibly younger) body, portrayed by a cheaper actor.

In the comics, the Monitor preceded Crisis on Infinite Earths by acting as a weapons dealer for various supervillains, which was supposedly part of his plan to save the multiverse, but didn’t really make a whole lot of sense.

I’d say the distinction between social and/or current events commentary and general humanist commentary is a fairly significant one. Not saying that one is better than the other, but when a story is quite clearly asking you to view it as a representation or metaphor of a specific thing, as opposed to an example of a…

There does seem to be this idea floating around that the Twilight Zone was primarily about these issue-driven episodes, likely because they’re a handy thing to bring up when talking about how ahead of its time the show could be (and because you can sometimes get those episodes shown in classrooms as educational…

The original Twilight Zone wasn’t as big on social commentary as people tend to remember. Sure, when it DID have a social or political point to make, it was very clear about spelling out exactly what it was, but that only applies to a handful of episodes.

Well, there’s apparently a tradition in Jane Austen adaptations of, when the action is set in “----shire”, having the characters actually call it “Blankshire”.

What I really want to know about this adaptation: is Major _____ de Coverley’s name pronounced as “Major *(BLEEP)* de Coverley”?

I feel like it would be better served if it were presented like a sketch comedy show, except characters and settings keep recurring through different sketches, until over time we start to get to know them well, and all the stuff that happens to them starts getting tinged with pathos as well as comedy.

The Season 7 finale feels like it WAS the wrap-up for Arrow, and these final ten episodes are designed specifically for crossover hoopla.

Ah, but we don’t know the Flash vanishes in the 2019 Crisis. The camera zoomed in on the date as it was changing, so we couldn’t see if any changes happened to the headline, too.

I see two reasons why the Bureau never gets involved in the timeline shenanigans on The Flash.

Given how thing’s went down, it’s possible that Nora wasn’t truly erased from existence. Rather, the timeline was changed so that she never went back in time in the first place, causing the time-traveler Nora to disappear, just like how Future Cicada disappeared once Grace was cured. So theoretically there could still…

Kamilla was actually being quite reasonable. I mean, a secret identity isn’t something you should reveal on the first date; Cisco wanting to take some time and let the relationship build before trusting her with such a life-and-death matter is very sensible.
