I wish I was feeling the same love for this episode Jarrod was, but it was hard for me to see it as more than yet another bottle episode filling out the run and saving money for CGI stuff elsewhere in the season. I love that the Legends have feelings, but I like them to unfold during moments of crisis rather than as

BTW tomorrow is the 6th! anniversary of this show. Boy how far  we;ve all come.

I am sorry but Gideon & Gary hooking up is still cringe-inducing to me, even though they made a strong case at the end of the episode for tolerance for their weird thing given how everyone else on the team has their own weird thing.

I loved how subtle the changes were before quickly diving into full chaos - like from the start, the filming is from different angles so you slowly get the sense that they’re being watched and it hits the “a-ha” moment when Nate points that out, and then it becomes a full-fledged, confessional mode-on reality tv

Also the big CENSOR block when he did the sign of the cross. (Bless this show. I do hope we get another season)

They’ve given small hints of it ever since the Fates’ TV show “Highcastle Abbey”

It took me a few seconds to realize that Gwyn wasn’t doing a dirty version of the Lord’s Prayer, but that in Hell most of it would certainly be bleeped out. That’s a nice little detail, and funny as hell.

Beeping out God never stopped being funny.

Yeah, The Mandalorian already basically traded in Fett’s cultural cache, leaving Book of Boba Fett without the ability to build a show around an armored, amoral, mostly quiet bounty hunter. So now we’ve got a fairly chatty Fett who’s largely unhelmeted and who decided he wants to be the employer. Which is fine, but

He can’t possibly have been with them more than a year, and that’s straining credulity. He could have been a prisoner for a little while longer than it seemed, and he could have spent longer building up trust and training with them, and longer still training them to attack the train. But all that likely was within 6

I would love if the show just committed to the semi-comedic theme that “Boba Fett is a great fighter, but an incredibly incompetent manager and maybe not super bright. Like Michael Scott with a jetpack

This continues to be such a weird show to me as I do like it, yet every episode I’m kind of taken back by the incredible dumb narrative choices it makes.

Right? In this show so far, I keep asking, “wait why is he nice ever? Didn’t he kill/capture (aka lead people to their deaths) for money for like, a Good portion of his existence?” Even in the little “I’ll spare this child/offer to free the other captive” moments - these are supposed to be Right after he worked for

The only change or addition to the OT for the Special Editions that I liked was the shot of Boba flirting with one of Jabba’s dancing girls at the palace in RotJ. From all the trailers for the show and his role in S2 of Mandalorian, it seems like he’ll be pretty stoic, but I’m hoping to see some glimpses of a sense of

Diggle’s whole situation last season seem to be more about CW wanting David Ramsay to guest-star(so they can promote his appearances) in return for letting him direct, and not about giving a shit about Green Lantern or even Diggle himself.

oh my fuck you are eight seasons in why are you still deciding if your hero has an absolute line around killing or not. it’s not even a new and more-dangerous-than-ever villain, it’s the same dickhead who’s been buzzing around the whole show.

The “Mia Queen shows up on a quest of her own” aspect of the episode reminded me of the experience of reading comics crossovers. They always wanted you to pick up one issue of a title you don’t read just so you could have “the full story,” whether or not the hero of that book was currently in part 3 of their own

Maybe Mia will finally find William on a crossover episode of Legends of Tomorrow, since his abduction apparently involved time travel? I will be pissed off if we don’t get payoff of that though, especially since William was the best character and actor from the Green Arrow & the Canaries spinoff that didn’t happen 

Well, the actors from the shows that have ended are available. Also we have more emotional attachment to characters like Ray and Alex and Jefferson and the Darhks. And Mia Smoak ... was also in this episode 

I feel a distant memory that The Flash, certainly in comics, was once about something other than never-ending multiple timeline fuckups.
