I’ve been hollering for the show to ditch the DEO ever since the whole, “oh yeah, we tortured invisible aliens into being our personal hit squad, nbd” reveal so I’m glad they’re doing Alex and Space Dad as independent crime fighters. Hopefully this also allows them to reset the “Cop/Scientist” dial on Alex because

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

No, see Last Jedi was good, and this was bad so that’s not right. The actual Star Wars comparison is Rise of Skywalker and the equally dumb “Rey is a Palpatine” reveal.

Everything about the Doctor being the Timeless Child was so dumb and pointless the episode itself went out of its way to say as much.  Therefore, I will be giving it as much mind as the next show runner will, which is to say not at all.  

I think we aren’t giving enough appreciation to the fact that the show just had Barry do the fusion dance with a psychic gorilla, and by not enough, I mean I don’t think you can ever give enough because that is so my kind of stupid.

So, do we think they forgot Prince Charles? Because my heart dearly believes that they did and he’s still hanging out with Mick.

I’m not sure you can really say that though considering the only Arrowverse show that’s stuck with its original central romantic pairing is The Flash and I suppose Supergirl if you consider Kara and food to be the primary romance on that show. Arrow spent most of its first season trying to set up a love triangle

Chris Wood and Odette Annable were mentioned in the synopsis the CW released before the episode aired, but if you don’t follow that stuff obsessively it would be easy to miss.

They probably didn’t hire Nicole Maines to work on every episode this season. It’s a fairly typical move for Arrowverse shows, just look at Cisco’s little walkabout on Flash this season, or Thea on Arrow the season before Willa Holland left.

They made a point of saying Argo City was restored at the end of Crisis, so I don't see why Allura would be dead.

There was a certain element of the show trying to justify Lena never learning the truth until she did, but on the whole I’m willing to write that off as an ungenerous read of the episode, and instead enjoy all the good things it brought to the table, like Thomas Lennon as Mxy, MxyFlix, BetaMyx, Alex and J’onn’s happy

At first I figured the baby was the timeless child because of the Superman parallels, and maybe it still is, but some sort of virtual world related to the Cybermen also feels like a pretty safe bet.

There’s definitely no such thing as an ethical absolute monarch, and she totally earned her spot in the Bad Place getting tortured by Shaun.

Headless Marie Antoinette with a flamethrower was totally worth a little historical inaccuracy.

To be fair, nobody expects DJ S’More Money.

Oh how I wish Manny Jacinto was DJ S’More Money, that was such a Good Place level gag.

Okay, Natalie Dreyfuss was fine, but a part of me still wishes they cast Dreama Walker as Sue strictly so they could recreate that one scene from Don't Trust the B.

Are we sure the Legends writers didn’t sneak into the Flash writer’s room late one night and scribble that on all the scripts?

Beth getting killed was super predictable since they weren't going to get ride of Alice, but at least Sophie wasn’t the one who shot her.

To steal a line from Marc Evan Jackson on The Good Place, The Podcast(he played Shawn) Legends is an unusual hour of American Network Television.
