Maybe all the Centaurs look like Dan.

Sounds like Goddess is pretty good at creating when she puts her mind to it.
I still don’t know if this show is in the Arrowverse or not? I’m used to other heroes not showing up and I’m used to the answer for weird changes being Speed Force or Crisis, but this show feels almost deliberately removed from the Arrowverse. I’m not saying the Legends need to show up, but we’re talking about…
I was honestly pretty surprised that Lucifer’s bid to become God was actually taken seriously by the show and the other characters. So many times in season 3, the plot of the episode revolved around him pursuing some transparently hair-brained scheme only to be proven wrong and taught a special lesson. But the fact…
It’s also refreshing that he’s immediately willing to change his approach with Irons once he understands more about his foe’s past. You can see Superman’s empathy in action in the fact that he doesn’t hold a grudge; he changes his mind with new information.
One other thing I forgot to mention in my comment below, is... I believe G-d’s last direct interaction with one of His creations (a human) in our universe is to tell Ella how special she is. He intentionally did that, he went to her.
But did she lie to Kyle? Does anyone seriously think he has "management potential"? Besides which, it would be all kinds of wrong for Lana to recommend her own husband for some fast track program.
I just think one of my top 3 moments in all of watching this show has to be the moment that Lucifer gets the words and a hug that finally reveal and confirm his dad’s love and respect and pride in him... and he immediately tries to share and get his dad to give that feeling to Ammenadiel, too.
Thank you. And that episode actually counts as canon — Lucifer even mentioned the case from that episode in “Daniel Espinoza: Naked And Afraid.”
My usual random thoughts:
Been loving your recaps! I really liked that scene with Ella and God. Her journey with God and faith since season 4 has been quite touching. Also, I hope Ella gets to meet Azrael again. If I’m not wrong her standalone episode from season 3 isn’t part of the main storyline right?
This was a solid A for me, Caroline.
Several things on this episode, but let’s start here:
Fingers crossed that’s a season six gimmick episode.
I might be interested in a show set in the Goddess’s universe. Centaurs or not. The Goddess trying to create her own type of Earth but only has the model of Lucifer’s friends on Earth to go on.
Bitsie Tulloch really was amazing in this, you really felt her anger and fear when initially blowing up at Jonathan, and then her regret when she apologized to him. I hope Lois gets to meet alt-earth Natalie.
The issue I had was that it seemed like they cut out scenes that would have worked. Like we I get they needed to pay attention to the other main family, but I would have liked to see Clark checking on Jonathan or Jonathan and Jordan's conversation (that they clearly had on the way home) about what happened. So, I…
Dang, this show is good. Thots:
This show has felt very unArrowverse like and I think that’s for the better. Because if they tried to pull a story like Lois’s on one of the other shows it would have probably been really hokey and melodramatic feeling instead of genuinely affecting like it was here.
I love how this episode reestablishes that this version of Superman is a beast when it comes to tolerating the effects of Kryptonite. Reeve, Cavill, Routh would all be curled up in pain, and Welling would pretty much be dead as soon as the first grenade went off. It just makes for a much more interesting fight when…
