Yeah, I’m shocked this episode got such a glowing response here. For me, this is one of the weakest episodes Legends has done since season one. Now I’m wondering if I just let my dislike of reality TV affect my enjoyment of it.

I did enjoy the possibly intentional Battlestar Galactica/Vancouver-based actors joke that was Rekha Sharma’s character saying she knew “the folks who worked on that sex slave pyramid scheme”.

Poor Natalie continues to spiral. Between her severe relapsing, and Juliette Lewis’s own reported antipathy toward the role and how it has been written, I am beginning to have real doubts as to the long term survival of Adult Nat.

For what it’s worth, the subtitles did specifically capitalize the word “Master”.

Didn’t realize that was Kandyse McClure! At least she seemed to be having fun with the role, thinly written though it was.

I’ve always thought that if they did a Mass Effect film or series that they should adapt the First Contact War. It’s only loosely sketched out in the games/comics and would justify a mostly human cast.

Honestly, this show is a hot mess and I really can’t recommend it on any grounds, but Lesbian Julianna Margulies was genuinely enjoyable. Of course, it helped that unlike the rest of the cast, she maintained some semblance of consistency in characterization/did not have a deranged meltdown every other episode.

Iris asking after Nora Darhk without even pausing to acknowledge the *three* other Noras she could possibly be referring to was just perfect. I genuinely feel bad for non-Legends watchers (both in the general sense and in this particular instance).

I feel like it’s gotta be a fakeout because otherwise Barry and Iris (and the whole team, honestly) would be absolutely devastated.

I just sort of assumed they didn’t want to run the risk of Brainy dying in the past and therefore dooming the future, but they never explicitly said anything along those lines so who the hell knows.

Weird lesbian jokes aside: Alex and Kelly have been together two years. Starting a family now might be fast in real life, but not particularly by TV standards. 

I’ve inexplicably had “Songbird” stuck in my head all week, so maybe Stoned Sara is right and we really *are* all connected and I’m vibing with the Legends writers room somehow? I’ll try to get you guys some season 7 spoilers.

I also kept feeling like I was watching a 90s genre show during this hour. Sometimes in good ways (Kelex katamari-ing himself into the monster of the week, Kara yeeting said monster into the sun) and sometimes in not-so-good ways (a lot of mindless technobabble and writing that was unsubtle even by Supergirl’s…

I’m glad someone else caught that the Citizen was ranked #4 because that might genuinely be the funniest joke in the entire Arrowverse. The Citizen, for those who aren’t watching the Flash (you fortunate souls), is a newspaper—blog?—that, at its peak, had a grand total of three entire employees, two of whom spent the…

I can’t believe you forgot!

Yeah, they kept saying “DNA” but his cloning system clearly had some method of transferring memories so I’m just assuming he swiped some of Sara’s from the system.

My kingdom for someone competent to run this show. The whole family metaphor w/r/t the Forces was absolutely ridiculous. 3/4 were actual normal human adults with actual normal human lives and suddenly we’re treating them like Barry and Iris’s children? Including the one as old as time who, and I cannot stress this…

Yup! At the time I only really knew her from the few episodes of Merlin I’d seen (and maybe Dracula? I don’t remember if I ever watched that show or just read recaps) and I *still* walked out of the theater feeling like they’d done her dirty. 

Yeah, she’s done a couple horror shows—Slasher, the Jonathan Rhys Meyers Dracula (bonus Arrowverse points for her character being in love with Helena Bertinelli on that one). She also got torn to bits by pterosaurs and eaten by a mosasaur in Jurassic World, which I consider horror in that it’s horrific that script…

Not a Good Wife situation unless Mick starts doing all his scenes talking into a cell phone—eventually culminating in an awkward farewell scene where it is readily apparent that he and Caity Lotz aren’t actually in the same room. ;D
