They recast Kenny! Barry, you Bastard! That and the fact that Callista Flockhart in 2009 looked like Callista Flockhart were the only two real quibbles I had with the setting, otherwise yes, this was a fantastic episode. It’s an absolute shame that they didn’t give the main cast a break every season and do one Midvale…

Caitlin and Defense Attorney Cecille Horton talking Frost out of staging the jailbreak was one of my favorite parts of the episode.

Good(?) to see that Frost also has the same terrible luck with men that her sister does.  I also got a big laugh out of the mean inspector lady commenting on how many points of commonality there were between Caitlin and Frost’s faces.  As Oliver said, wear a mask.

Love & Thunder is, in part, telling the Jane FosThor story, so I’m betting Mjolnir is coming back.

I’m sure Lex’s thinking is if he doesn’t know who Supergirl is, then there’s no way Lena would.

it’s better than New 52, which turned Zor-El into Cyborg superman.

This actually tracks, the US doesn’t recognize that the ICC has jurisdiction over it.

I’m terrible with fashion, but I thought that jacket Caitlin was wearing with the shoulder pads was totally 80's

Look, all i’m going to say is that the Legends would have sorted that all out in no time flat...

Clark heard the ruckus at the Fortress, but Jordan needed his help with some calculus homework so he didn’t make there in time to lend a hand.

“Wear a mask!”

Former DA Cecille Horton is the best character on the show, prove me wrong.

It’s funny, I figured Kara’s sacrifice play was a deliberate rope-a-dope that the team was in on, hence their nonchalance. I guess it wasn’t since Kara was saved by the protocols that Lena enacted on the fly right before she left.

The bigger question is how is this Lex even a thing if the multiverse was collapsed* in Crisis?

i can’t help shake the feeling that they really wanted to cast Kate Micucci, but couldn’t so they went and found her taller doppelganger.

Jon and Jordan are another entry into the CWVerse’s collection of Good Siblings (along with Alex and Kara, Anissa and Jen, and to a lesser degree Ollie and Thea), but man, nothing about them reads fourteen to me. I get why the show would have them be fourteen — it gives you more seasons of them at home, but it really…

iirc when the current showrunner took over, giving iris more to do was one of his objectives

Discount CG Lady Hulk aside, I rather enjoyed that. I’m always a fan of superhero shows solving their problems without punching, though obviously there’s a time and a place for punching as well. It’s a shame covid means we probably won’t be able to see if Kara or Clark could take down discount CG lady hulk, but such…

I’m just going to take a moment to congratulate myself on guessing this was what the show was going to do. I don’t know if it’s the correct decision, but I get why they’re doing it.

Dries talked about that in an interview with Variety. They wanted to create some space between Rose and Day. Certainly i don’t think they could’ve done Alice’s story arc with kate as an active presence in the world.  Whether or not that’s a valid justification is an exercise left up to the reader.
