I would agree in terms of the Master; I'm sure something will go wrong or turn out to be not-genuine in the first place. But it is a very 'compelling' watch (to borrow an extremely-overused 21st century buzzword. :-) )

So Bill…
A. Is responsible for everyone that died during the occupation; never mentioned,
B. Is a willing murderer at the drop of a hat; never-followed-up-on,
C. Doesn't die after we are conclusively told that trying to hook her brain to this thing will DEFINITELY kill her.

That about sums it up, yep. :-)

I assume they just took it away from her as punishment for the whole "J'onn, weaken yourself to protect me so I can tag along into Myriad and endanger the whole earth by becoming a meat-puppet/hostage used to kill the one hope of actually saving us all, because I have an inferiority complex' thing at the end of the…

So, are we gonna talk about how ridiculously out of character and silly everyone was being for the first half of this episode to set up the 'James isn't being appreciated' thread? None of the regulars were talking or acting like themselves.

This was Supergirl back on form, and I loved it. The reconciliation with Snapper was so much better for the fact that it was *earned.* It wasn’t simple, it wasn’t trite, both parties had to swallow their pride, grew, learned something- wrongdoing was acknowledged, and so was unrecognized merit. It was organic and real…

Yes, but after she freed them and was onboard to pilot it back, they still acted as if stopping the ship form leaving the atmosphere (and possibly crashing it and killing everyone aboard, and possibly killing Supergirl by asphyxiation in space) was a life-and-death priority, rather than the riskier of two alternatives…

Why was that building filled with freestanding panes of glass?

As this episode's Legion flight ring is so unsubtly reminded us, all of this drama with Mon-el is clearly in service to a tragic plot twist to end the season. That's the reson for so much focus. (That and, I do think, seeing the influence Kara has on him, and changing him; the writers deserve that much credit, at…

You've seriously got to be kidding me. Alex is the villain of the show. She beat a helpless man, readily agrees to betray her teammates (then wines that the test which proved she was disloyal was in itself a betrayal) is takwn off the job, goes rogue, and nearly gets Kara at killed in an imbecilic attempt to stop a…

"Chyler Leigh is the MVP of this episode"
"I liked Eliza pumping the brakes on Jeremiah’s attempt to pick up their marriage where they left off"

Sorry- just occurred to me that would sound different than it did in my head. I was trying for an old-timey flare, as in "I saw him right over there, not ten feet in front of me!"

As a previous commenter to these reviews point it out, it's not really fair to say that Barry is being 'rightly' chewed out for Flashpoint. Despite everyone this season acting as if Barry changing the past is the worst possible thing he could ever do, the three times that he changed the past before this turned out…

I agree that the secret keeping stick was a very bad idea. This after who was just frustrating, as everyone was in full-on jerk mode, and after last couple episodes were so good. It was a real frustration. But at least some good things resulted… like a heck of a cliffhanger.

I really I really have to disagree with the reviewer - in both this review and the last - on this thing any kind of failure. I found the effects words they were able to accomplish, and the numerous daylight Guerrilla seems incredibly impressive. They wouldn't be that shameful in a big screen film, much less on a…

Mid-episode, not halfway through.

I believe the reason they gave was "The contrived necessity for the bad guys to get the spear which has been the obvious endgame since the start of the season (because they couldn't have the finale with any lower stakes)." ;-) Honestly, I have to approach any story about keeping the bad guy from getting ahold of a…

You know what's annoying? To be watching the episode wherein the team assembles and is trying to destroy the spear of destiny, and halfway through, having a commercial break for next week's episode showing the team in a new reality where the bad guys have won, via the Spear of Destiny. Kinda gives away the ending.

Yeah, that has been a major ongoing problem for a while now. Most quest shows seem to fall into that- the 'we spent a really long time trying to do this thing and now seasons later everyone can do this thing and could all along' syndrome.

I agree that the ending with Pan was better- but right now, I feel like they have an obligation to fix his character from the way they screwed it up since they brought him back before they write him out, so that he can at least end up in as good a place as he was back when they should have let him be. (Or ideally, let…
