The details might not be 100% exact, but the whole CatCo takeover had a strong "pivot to video" energy that felt very of its moment. Andrea Rojas is a herb.

The Arrowverse never let logic get in the way of a story beat. Like how Oliver gets ousted from Queen Consolidated and Felicity gets fired from owning Palmertech even though both of them owned the companies.

I think that theoretically could happen, because the board of directors would be legally bound to fire the CEO if they thought they were doing a bad job, because they are acting on behalf of all the shareholders, not just the majority holder. The issue is that the majority holder could fire the board to prevent it or in retaliation.

Yeah, the problem was that the writers seemed to think that the owner and the CEO were the same thing and since you could be fired as CEO that would also make you not the owner any more so now you've got no money. But they also never seemed to have any trouble getting new equipment or fancy houses or underground lairs when they were supposedly broke, so it was all meaningless anyway.

Interesting that the first Marvel/DC crossover is having a gender swapped Warlock as a villain in Supergirl. Remember when they tried to make us feel bad for Andreas family?

Dreamer has to show up on Legends if only so that when she’s done pulling yet another ability out of her rear end, Sarah can turn to her and ask “what are your powers again?”

Well, a lot of things happened in that episode, and I'm sure they'd have meant something to me a year ago. But as of right now, I mostly had no idea what anyone was talking about and spent most of the episode going "Who is that?" and "This person has super powers now?" and "How many characters are in this show?"

This episode definitely suffered the most of "this was supposed to be the finale"-itis. Like Kara being trapped in the Phantom Zone was supposed to cover up for Melissa's pregnancy but she already had the drat baby already so that's moot. Edit: Also I had to laugh at J'onn just happening to have a marker with his friend's sigil on it and there just happening to be a free space for Alex. muscles like this! fucked around with this message at 02:06 on Apr 2, 2021 |

Well that may have been the dumbest depiction of a trial I've ever seen. The entire case against him was based on Eve Teschmacher's testimony? There's was literally no other evidence? There is no way anyone could possibly have thought that he was going to be convicted. No prosecutor would have gone ahead with that. Everyone's acting like he's some kind of machiavellian master manipulator when he barely needed to do anything.

It's 2021 and Transilvane was mentioned on a primetime TV show. Hell yeah. Really fun episode in general. Luthor's trial was goofy, but (let's face it) it's not much goofier than anything we actually saw in the impeachment trials.

Finally getting around to watch the latest episode and uh, have the writers ever seen a trial, either in reality or on tv, because what the hell was that? A huge case only has one witness that all the evidence is hinged on?

No Lena, the worst you was after Lex came up and told you that your totally not gay crush Kara was Supergirl. Shooting him was a morally correct decision, Lex is a threat to not just humanity, but reality.
