Huh, they're taking *another* week off the 28th?

They're putting the show on a quasi-glide path to the finale to compensate for there being fewer episodes than Supergirl/Flash/Arrow. This happened last year too around this time; the show started to take like two or three-week breaks between episodes so that its finale lined up roughly with the time the rest of the Arrowverse shows were wrapping for the year.

Don't they have some kind of universal translator thing? The English spoken in the 5th century is so different from the English of the 20th and 21st century, the translator would have to be working when they were talking to the knights. So Galahad wouldn't have been confused by Ray's use of the term "fan," because the translator would've just translated it into an appropriate term That Galahad would've understood.

This show is bullshit.

Well, Star Girl did shape Camelot to fit her needs of protecting the spear piece, maybe that also meant changing the dialect.

Right up until the end I thought Captain Sarah Lance, Time Lesbian was gonna fall short on this one but nope she bagged another one. Good job idiots.

Christ this show is so much fun.

Forget backdoors for Gideon, they seemingly didn't even take away his normal command authority over Gideon before the episode.

Yeah, they were telegraphing that Gideon was probably going to turn on them pretty well in the last few moments.

Why didn't Damien shank Ray when he had him dead to rights? Did he think it would get the 'idiots' angry enough to do the same to him?

Well, I don't think they're doing another crossover finale involving LoT, so just don't skip weeks and let us have iZombie sooner.

They did just start shooting the finale so maybe they need the time for production. Btw Guggenheim tweeted out the cast listing for the finale

That looks like the division of credits based on who's a regular and who's a recurring guest star, it's a SAG thing.

Darkh's been in more episodes (and I'm pretty sure Merlyn has been too) but that's basically because they're Thawne's henchmen. It would make sense for the end of the season to be about defeating Thawne since he's the most dangerous and the one who is driving this entire Legion plot (including caddying around his henchmen and dropping them off in different times to do battle with the Legends).

Meanwhile Darkh and Merlyn probably get vanquished easy or abandon Thawne in the end so it makes them supporting players like Snart and Laurel.

Also I hope that means Laurel will be with the Legends in S3.

Well Merlyn and Stein are getting booted back to 2017 at some point real soon because they're in the Flash/Supergirl musical crossover (because John Barrowman and Victor Garber are apparently the only other people in the Arrowverse with musical tallents). Though that would be amusing if that was how they actually wound up dealing with Malcolm, just dump his preening rear end back in Central City and leave him to the mercy of The Music Meister while Darhk, Thawne and Rip kept on eviling it up elsewhere in time.

Lesbian women typically have a low incidence of STI transmission vs. actively straight or bisexual women. Sara's had past relationships with men, but the likelihood of infecting new partners drops precipitously when you've died and been resurrected by ancient magic, or have access to a 31st-century time machine with an AI-controlled med bay.

An island that housed a magical totem that gave great power to someone by sucking out people's souls, which Damien Darkh - who is the arch rival of Sara's killer's dad and Sara's ex-lover and ex wife of Oliver - then used to kill Sara's sister in a completely unrelated conflict.
