It was a fun outing. I do wonder if Eddie will have more consequences. He can afford to rent a place that isn’t mob owned now, but he still has to get booze from somewhere. On the other hand, Capone’s a business man. As long as Eddie toes the line in future, he may be find selling him liquor.
The whiskey is from Johnny C’s magical fridge in his pocket hell-dimension mansion that keeps regenerating whenever they open the fridge door so that’s why the Legends were asking to use the storage unit, so they could go get whiskey from the fridge.
Lena and Andrea had a few video calls in the episode where Lena went to Ireland Newfoundland to research her mother.
Jon Cryer as Lex is sort of in his own league as an ArrowVerse villain. Manu Bennett as Slade Wilson and Tom Cavanagh as Thawne were also perfect but you can’t really compare them.
RIP William, a good guy, great journalist, and poor love interest.
I also was impressed with Jesse Rath’s performance in this ep, and Nicole’s as well. Their only hope is for someone from the MCU to drop in and explain to them that BTTF is ———-. That should resolve that problem.
William was an unnecessary addition to an already large cast but I didn’t hate him. He was certainly more likeable than Andrea.
I'm still hoping Jessie and Nicole will be in some kind of Legion of Superheroes spin off. They are so good together.
So...
I want Nicole Maines to Pretty Please post the outtakes of her saying “I hate the space/time continuum.” How does one dramatically deliver such a nutty line?
Here lies William, he never learned Kara was Supergirl. I was, btw, fairly convinced Esme was going to spill the beans to William about Kara’s identity, but I guess that’s moot now! The show never quite figured out how best to use William, though baking buddy was probably the closest they got in that regard.
So much of the evil plotting on these shows is high concept to the point of goofiness, which of course we are all clamoring for because it’s fun, but then to have a villain use a gun — not a nanobot wrist thingy, but an actual recognizable weapon — to plug an innocent for basically no reason, well, as the Youths might…
It’s weird, I remember watching many, many episodes of this but don’t recall a huge number of these rooms.
I thought the co-captains thing came about pretty naturally. It started with Sara being gone for a couple episodes because she was visiting Star City/Caity Lotz was on director duty, and she left Ava in charge because, really, who are the other options? Constantine? Behrad? Mick?
For one single great moment: it’s silly, but The Banana Boat Song bit. It worked perfectly as, simultaneously, a completely ridiculous thing that no other show would thing of doing, and yet also a plot/character development that absolutely made sense in context in the moment. Best of both worlds!
Holy crap - I just remembered that “Love Will Keep Us Together” is a callback from the pilot episode.
The B plot may have had little to do with the A plot, but it has some nice continuity. I really feel like the writers set this up in last season’s finale. I know that for a lot of people Bishop was a problematic villain last year, but bringing him back allows them to wrap up few loose ends from that season. We can get…
There have been a lot of incredible moments on Legends, with them summoning a massive Beebo avatar Captain Planet-style to fight a time demon, but the most meta thing the show ever did was:
Going back in time to when Lord of the Rings was filming to recruit John Noble so that he could record lines pretending to be a…
God this was fun. It was so great to see all these characters. I liked that whenever we saw the S1 characters they were all unusually snippy and conflicted and fighting each other, reflecting not just the problems bringing the crew together but also the show not having found its voice yet.
