DC Crossover 2017: Thoughts

Warning: SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED.

Hey everyone! Happy 50th post! Like I promised last week, this week will be all things DCTV crossover, so let's get into it.

Jane the Virgin: What Works, and What Doesn't

Warning: SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED.

Hey everyone! I'm sorry for posting this a week late, but this week wasn't one of the greatest in my life. But I'm back now, and that's all that matters. Let's get into what we've missed on Jane the Virgin!

Arrow Season 6: A Perfect Balance

Warning: SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED.

Hey everyone! Arrow season 6 so far is what season 4 tried to be, and failed. Let's get into it!

The Flash S4 Recap: Episodes 1-3

Warning: SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED.

Hey everyone! As I said previously, I'll be dividing and conquering the shows that I watch, and this week, we're talking everything The Flash. Also, a personal sidenote that you all probably don't care about, but I will waste your time talking about anyway: this blog's one year anniversary was this past Sunday! Looking back, I've grown a lot over the past the year, as a person and my taste in shows. My very first review was of a show I no longer watch - no regrets about that, honestly - and my review style has changed tremendously. However, the salt remains. Let's get into it!

Arrow, 5.09 - "What We Leave Behind"

Warning: SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED.

You know how I said I would probably be disgruntled with Arrow again after the crossover episode? Well, I was. Why do all my faves have to let me down??

The Flash, 3.09 - "The Present"

Warning: SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED.

Since I'm on break, I'm finally starting up again with the reviews. I only recently got to watch The Flash's wild midseason finale, so let's get into it.

Legends of Tomorrow, 2.07 - "Invasion! (4)"

Warning: SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED.

And here's the final installment of my crossover reviews, aka the first and last LOT review I will ever do.

The Flash, 3.08 - "Invasion! (2)"

Warning: SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED.

Annndddd onto the Flash portion of the crossover! The whole gang's here, finally!

Supergirl, 2.08 - "Medusa"

Warning: SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED.

Since Arrow 100 was my favorite episode out of the crossover, I wrote it first. Now that's out of the way, the rest will be coming in order, starting with Supergirl.

Arrow, 5.08 - "Invasion! (3)"

Warning: SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED.

Alright, alright. I know I'm writing the episodes out of order, but I just HAVE to start my CW DCTV crossover reviews with the best episode of the week. Arrow's portion of the big alien drama also happened to be the show's 100th episode, and I'm so ready to talk about it.

Jane the Virgin, 3.06 - "Chapter Fifty"

Warning: SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED.

After ending on a wild note, Jane the Virgin loses some of the previous episode's sparkle and intrigue. On another note, the show is halfway to 100 and having been around since nearly the beginning of season 1, I'm proud of the cast for getting so far. Let's discuss!

Quick update for you all.

Hey guys! I'm sorry this is probably not the update you were expecting. I've already watched the most recent JTV and Pitch episodes and reviews will hopefully be out at least by the end of this week. I just wanted to let you all know that after today's episode of Supergirl, I will most likely stop watching the show altogether. I'm going to watch and review this episode because 1) it's part of the CW DCTV crossover and 2) I want to part the show knowing that my daughter Alex Danvers is proud of her identity and that my son James Olsen is succeeding at doing what he loves (even though I still don't really approve of it.)

Jane the Virgin, 3.05 - "Chapter Forty-Nine"

Warning: SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED.

I've finally been catching up with Jane the Virgin, and DAMN, did I miss a lot. Chapter 50 (Halfway to 100! Wow I'm proud) will be up soon, but for now, let's dive right in to 49.

The Flash, 3.07 - "Killer Frost"

Warning: SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED.

“Like you helped your mother? Or Wally? Or me? You keep messing with everyone’s lives, wrecking everything, and we’re left behind to pick up the pieces from your mistakes. Some things you break can’t be put back together.” -Killer Frost

I had to start off with this quote this week because it is truly iconic. The Flash writers finally acknowledge the elephant in the room, which is how Barry's selfishness makes him a unique kind of villain, and I'm so excited to talk about it.

Supergirl, 2.07 - "The Darkest Place"

Warning: SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED.

I am so pissed at this show it isn't even funny. This episode was so bad it doesn't even warrant a neutral introduction. Let's get into the roast.

The Flash, 3.06 - "Shade"

Warning: SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED.

As Thanksgiving break approaches, I finally have some free time on my hands to catch up on my shows. I finally got to watch the most recent Flash episode 6 days late, and a lot happened.

Supergirl, 2.06 - "Changing"

Warning: SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED.

I looked forward to this episode all week and watched so many scenes in the 2 minute videos released online, and it was actually pretty decent. However, there are some discoveries I made that....I don't know if I can get over, and definitely decreased my enjoyment of the episode. Let's get into it.

Arrow, 5.07 - "Vigilante"

Warning: SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED.

So far this season, the odd episodes of Arrow have tended to be slightly better than their even counterparts. So compared to the disaster that was season 5, episode 6, episode 7 was much better. But even then, it still isn't that much better, so let's get into it.

Jane the Virgin, 3.04 - "Chapter Forty-Eight"

Warning: SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED.

Unfortunately I'm behind on nearly all of my shows at the moment, but since I got a request to review the Jane the Virgin episode from two weeks ago, let's get started! A lot happened, and there's a lot to talk about.

Supergirl, 2.05 - "Crossfire"

Warning: SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED.

With one day left until the next Supergirl (and Jane the Virgin, sigh, I'm so behind) episode, I thought I'd finally share my thoughts about the previous one.
