To their credit, they didn't try to enslave humanity with their newfound yellow sun powers(assuming they even know). I liked the MoS style static message at the beginning.

0/10 Hercules didn't even beat anyone up.

I have no doubts this will be the plan for either next week's episode or the season finale.

I liked this episode! Surprisingly strong...well, not surprisingly strong, but just strong writing and performances from everyone.

It's too bad neither Mon-El or Kara have watched the Princess Diaries in their little marathons, or else they'd know how important it is for him to return and lead his people towards a more compassionate way of life or whatever.

I know people will complain about ~*CW relationship drama*~ but I think in this case I think the drama was earned. As opposed to whatever bullshit Barry was on last week.

This show needs more men on it for Kara to date and dump mercilessly :colbert:

I am only like 50% serious on that one. I'm firmly in the camp that says Kara should just be a strong, single independent woman who doesn't need a boyfriend and continue the show's unabated streak of trolling conservatives and MRAs.

Well that was a pretty interesting ending to this episode, the truth coming out in everyone's relationships was a pretty big theme.

So I assume everyone's going to watch The Flash tomorrow to see how the Musical arc ends?

Kind of makes you wonder, just how much does the Supergirl crew enjoy tweaking Man of Steel and Batman v. Superman's nipples over how much more people love their take on the Superman universe than Zack Snyder's?

I'm guessing a lot :allears:

Jimmy, while wearing a titanium alloy suit and equipped with whatever weapons the props department wants to give him, is less effective than Alex with just a gun when she's unarmed.

He has a cool voice synth though, so he's got that going for him.

At this point Alex is almost literally Batwoman so that checks out.

Really didn't like how Wynn's girlfriend turned heel for seemly drama only reasons. Nothing about their relationship showed anything remotely like what happened in the last episode. Manipulating men to steal art... oh okay. But I'm being forced to because someone kidnapped my brother... uh okay. Whole thing was just so hamfisted and uninspired.

Not once, but TWICE they used the whole "Wynn and Jimmy get the poo poo kicked out of them before the rest of the DEO shows up" thing.

At least the 2nd time they tied to handwave it away with "traffic."

:shrug:"What do you mean"
:jerkbag:"We need a couple more B plots, and probably an episode where we turn one of them into the A plot and have the 3 minutes we could get Sorbo out of his trailer turned into the B plot"

I feel like Jimmy should actually be a badass for once to give him some credibility. Every time he shows up as Guardian my reaction is usually matching the villains, rolling my eyes, right before they throw him through a wall.

The DEO is basically magic, you can't get some kind of technobabble laser fists or something? Alex went all Elysium with kryptonite exo-skeletons and swords and poo poo.

Who's idea was it to shoot Wynn and his girlfriend's final conversation through a window from the other room? The way they blocked the shots, I though they were separated by glass due to the reflection until the final kiss.

Earth 38 obviously had a bustling economy that revolves around large panes of stunt grade glass.

It's only logical that there 4'x8' panes of glass randomly hanging up after the window pane surplus of '16.

That warehouse is also apparently the universal constant, existing in all realities simultaneously.

Barry explicitly says in last year's crossover that Earth-38 doesn't have STAR Labs, a Harrison Wells, Caitlyn Snow of Cisco Ramon (and, assumably, a Barry Allen or any other member of the extended Flash family).

Though there's been plenty of non-STAR Labs poo poo that's made people metahumans in all but name on Supergirl (see: Livewire), so who honestly knows where Music Meister comes from :shrug:

You know, I'm kind of hoping that after a season of building them up to be bad people / potential villains that Lar-Gand and Rhea just turn out to be nothing more than Mon-El's stern, disapproving conservative helicopter parents. That would be a pretty sweet troll on the audience, not gonna lie.

I like it when Alex saves Jimmy and Winn cause she's bad rear end. I liked this episode , but still can't but laugh at how much Jimmy get's his rear end kicked on this show.

But seriously, that was a pretty interesting crossover/Musical episode. Completely forgot about the parallel between Kara/Mon-El and Barry/Iris breakup, that was the entire plot of the Musical basically. Wasn't expecting any Legends of Tomorrow characters to be in the Musical though, that was fun.

Not nearly enough singing.

But we've learned that Supergirl puts the Kara in karaoke, so hopefully we have that to look forward to.
