Hi, you guys! Sorry I've abandoned you! But never fear, I'm baaaack~ and I have a liveblog for you! As some of you might know, I've recently (well, relatively recently, anyway) become a DC Comics fan. The first DCTV show I watched was The Flash, and I adored it. (How could I not? The main character is literally just a nerd who occasionally goes "nyoooooooom".) When Supergirl arrived on Netflix, I was like, "AWWW YISSSS" and immediately got started. This is me liveblogging the crossover between Supergirl season 1 and season 2 of The Flash. Here be spoilers, etc. etc. Anyway. Here we go!
W: I... Don't Like Siobhan, but at least Winn's not pining anymore.
W: Kara, poor baby. It's okay.
W: Casual Lucy in charge, yessss.
W: Cat. Cat. Caaaaat. How do I love thee.
W: That's The Flash's theme music and there's a red blur omg omg omg
W: "I-- Nope! I'm--" Oh, Barry. Never change, honey.
W: Speedy red dORK
W: Dorks i n t e r a c t i n g. I'm dead.
W: I /love/ the music of this episode. Casual insertions of the Flash theme --> my jam.
W: Okay, so confession: I watched The Flash before I watched Supergirl. And I actually watched this crossover before I started Supergirl. (Yes, I know, I know, don't judge. This is me liveblogging my rewatch.) Anyhoo.
W: Dude. Dude. Dude. Winn and Cisco would be /such/ good friends it's not even funny.
W: "Barry... is from another universe!" their faces argh they're so cute and Winn's reaction
W: These interactions are my bread and butter tbh. Winn is so psyched about this, and James is just "Whut", and Kara just wants ice cream.
W: lowkey (highkey) jealous James. Don't worry, Barry's got an Iris waiting for him.
W: I love Cat Grant. That is all.
W: ugh Siobhan again but w/e. Hoo boy. Soul destroying, eh?
W: giRL DON'T DO IT *Siobhan does the thing*
W: Awww, Cat. You do care.
W: SUPERHERO TEAM UP AWWW YEAH
W: Oh. Alex + J'onn reference. Sads.
W: Ah. Supervillain team up as well, then.
W: Quality James/Lucy platonic interactions! Yayyy.
W: Reckless Kryptonian golden retriever is reckless.
W: Winn is crushing on Barry so hard rn.
W: B a n t e r.
W: oh nooooes.
W: Y'know, it's weird to see /Barry/ being the mature one for a change. Nice, though.
W: Subtle piano Flash theme in the background. I love.
W: Oh. Oh. I just realized: when he says, "Me too," not only is he saying that he's glad he met Kara, he's also implying that compared to what he faces back home, this is... nice. Idyllic, maybe. Relaxing.
W: She knows Winn's name now. #characterdevelopment
W: Epic battle no. 2. Here we go.
W: "Hey, Sparky. Shrieky. Hi!" also casually feminist Barry is my jam
W: Okay, Livewire's powers are actually really cool???
W: Kara! Property damage!
W: Saved by the power of Friendship. Sorta.
W: Oh, Cat. How wrong you are.
W: "Girl of Steel"/"Scarlet Speedster" noice
W: Even Barry ships Karolsen. Hey, I bet Kara'd ship Westallen too.
W: Lookit ma supernerds, huggin' and havin' fun.
W: KAROLSEN KISS THIS IS NOT A DRILL THIS IS NOT A DRILL
W: Oh, shoot, what happened?
~the end~
So!
Pros of this episode: nERDS interacting, Karolsen getting together, endless fluff and banter, Cat Grant being perfect as usual
Cons of this episode: not enough Lucy Lane, anticlimactic final battle, too much adorableness
Happy watching!
