Supergirl: World's Finest (4/4)

To begin with, it's hands down one of the best episode of the show so far, and it's a nice enough show. Thanks to Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg (the two having previously created Arrow and The Flash), DC's TV universe is not a disaster like the movies. Flash who can travel through time & parallel universes, accidentally lands up in National City. And the fun begins!

Like the crossover with Arrows, this one is quite fun. The chemistry between Grant and his ex co-star from Glee, is amazing. Which makes the chemistry between Flash & Supergirl fun. Both are funny, nerdy, cheesy and awesome! They team up together against the duo of Livewire & Silver Banshee, and they all fight like women (as Flash says!). Flash helps Supergirl save the day (spoiler: although they don't actually save the day, it gets saved by Firefighters. Kinda boring, but...). And Supergirl helps Flash get back to his Earth. And in between, there are races/competitions (guess who wins?) and lot of funny jabs. 

Both Grant and Melissa are phenomenal. Seeing this James Olsen jealous, was nice for a change. Winn as the mega nerd of Supergirl, is cool, as usual. But unfortunately, he lost his new found lady love, to Silver Banshee (or who became her). Rest of the cast is amazing as usual.  The episode's teleplay was written by Andrew Kreisberg & Michael Grassi, and directed by Nick Gomez. All in all, this was an amazing episode, and hopefully we get to see more of these.

Don't miss Supergirl x The Flash Crossover Monday, March 28th at 8/7c on CBS. #SupergirlxTheFlash http://www.cbs.com/shows/supergirl/ http://www.cwtv.com/shows/the-flash/ http://supergirl.com/

Fun Facts: This marked the first episode of the series to feature a character from the DC Universe that appears on another show, and the first character from a CW series to cross over to a CBS series. The episode title was inspired by the World's Finest Comics series, in which Superman would team up with various other DC superheroes, including the Flash.

The Flash - Season 2 - The Man Who Saved Central City (3/4)

The season 2 premier of The Flash wasn't as flashy or exciting as I was hoping for. But it was still interesting and nice. Some old characters have left, but new characters are joining the story and the cast, which is nice. And although the episode started on a down note, it ended on a high.

***spoilers***

The episode opens with a reuniting of the original Team Flash, including Ronnie and Dr Wells. Yes, Dr Wells. But it all turns out to be dream, where Barry is a lone wolf, 6 months after the "incident". Barry did save Central City from the black hole, but both Ronnie and Eddie died, saving the day. Barry is back to moping, and turned into a mopey lone wolf. But when a new meta Atom Crusher arrives, he cant defeat him by himself. We get to see Dr Wells again, in a video message telling Barry that he was never his true enemy. And leaves his confession about killing Norah on video, so his dad can be freed. The family reunion was kinda stretched but still nice. With help from the Team Flash, Barry is able to defeat Atom Crusher, but he dies saying "Zoom", asked him to kill Flash. So, Zoom is coming! And at the end, we see Jay Garrick. Yes, 2 Flashes!!

***spoiler ends****

So overall it was nice episode. Scenes seem long and mopey, with not enough action. We definitely missed Dr Wells, hope he comes back some how. And hopefully with Jay Garrick and Zoom in equation, it'll get interesting again. Looking forward for next episode... and Arrow!
