Every time I see that wall, I check to see if Jefferson is on it. Still isn’t. Dude gets his own chair, is an expert on energy transfers, and Gambi is at least as smart as any of these other people...

OK, so if they called them, Kara would come back looking like Alicia Vikander, but them’s the breaks.  

“Pub quiz in Purgatory” would be a good example of how the crazy in this season was allowed back in.  If you wondered what the hashtag #chickenkicker was referring to, well... watch it and see.

Plotzed a little at the mention of Transilvane.  One of Kirby’s crazier -- and better -- ideas, even if the show uses only its name!

If there’s going to be Under the Dome references, I want ONE. BIFURCATED. COW.  Damn it!

They’ve been carrying Kandy all season, and they weren’t going to stop tonight. They even gave the Trash Barrel That Walks Like a Woman a lip-sync song that played into her groove, and she still had to rely on Olivia not being ready for comic moves in hers.

I’ve said all along this is Mik’s to lose, but Rose is going

Oh, Olivia will be back for an All-Stars for sure.

And Ru will make sure to take the credit for her development.

From the beautifully twisted mind of Gail Simone. She can write rings around Gunn.

I just want one “I’m not a fish!  I’m a SHARK!” in the movie somewhere.  

True; I was thinking the Lois that married the hero Luthor, which was wiped out in the comic-book Crisis.  (Which they didn’t, nor shouldn’t have, followed word for word.)

Especially since her flight was from National City, where she had gone to explicitly discuss the Kryptonite situation with Kara.

Pretty sure that Lois was not Superwoman, who did all those things.  Superwoman was the analogue to Diana?

In the comics, Luthor and Lois were married on Earth-3, where the heroes were villains called the Crime Syndicate, and Lex was the only thing close to a hero in that world. (I think it’s back now, after DC’s Metal events.) Sounds like they might be playing with that idea, with Supes in his world becoming the tyrant

This week’s award in CW Stupidity goes to Bess, though.

Hmmm, you are being blackmailed by a con artist that people know about, and accept you anyway. Do you:
Tell your gang of mystery-solving friends, who come up with a plan to snare him?
Tell the matriarch who has said that your past is past, and she doesn’t care?
Or,

It ain’t Batroc without the gonzo accent and the totally ego-driven amorality, anyway.  

Surprised Olivia wasn’t in the bottom after another safe, bland performance. She couldn’t even sell the bedraggled look at the beginning, ffs.

So, Mik makes an ad that is an ironic statement about how stupid these kind of ads are, and no one gets the point? Mik’s whole brand is and has always been subtly calling out

If you’ve seen the finale, you know your wish was granted.  Spectacularly, by Keith David himself.

Well, that’s what makes horse races.  I thought they were mostly even, so Denali fighting her dress was a small but telling difference.  The recapper though they were both blah, and gave it to Denial based on her challenge look being better (it was).  You thought she was clearly better, which I don’t see, but whatever

I think the main determinant in the lip-sync was Denali fighting with her dress a few times during the number, pulling it up more than once. In a tight contest, that could be the difference.

That said, her sniping that “I’m being sent home because my partner screwed up” is a well she went too WAY too often this

I’m assuming HIM is off the table.

An adult Princess is more likely, but also a likely bad sign if she shows up.  So who the heck are going to be the villains?

Oh, I’ve heard of Patrick Starr.  Was half expecting Kandy to come out in a starfish outfit, considering her lack of knowledge on most topics.

Was surprised Symone didn’t make the top tier. Her Tubman and her runway had the kind of audacity that Ru supposedly wants, far more than Denali’s constant hair-flipping.

Yes, Kandy, we know that you’re what’s on your mind all the time. Are you noticing how thin the act is wearing?

Also shocked that no one caught what
