Eh, I like this Jimmy. He grew on me in this series quite easily, being a breath of fresh air from what we normally see him as. I doubt he'll be gone completely though; just fade in the background for awhile, appearing again here and there for the others to see his progress on the different path he chose. That said, odd how he and Lena just seemed to unceremoniously break up off-screen, from what I gathered.
At least Jimmy's actor here will be in the Mortal Kombat movie reboot (as Jax), so there's always that if we don't see him much more in this show. He's cool.
Okay, this last ep. i enjoyed. All the [SPOILER - highlight to read]: behind the scenes flashback stuff between Lena and Andrea and how it impacted Lex and the Superman Family was was pretty cool.
I was really bummed at seeing the fallout between [SPOILER - highlight to read]: Supergirl and Lena this ep. I really hope they can salvage things down the road.
On the flip side it looks like [SPOILER - highlight to read]: J’onn and Malefic reconciled which is nice!
Decent ep. this week, but the last few minutes were pretty good due to [SPOILER - highlight to read]: all the Crisis stuff. Monitor talking w. J’onn and Lex, and i’m Pretty sure we saw Nash Wells turned into Pariah.
I know ppl have ragged on Hoechlin, especially in comparison to Brandon Routh’s Superman, but i’ll Check the new show out. The CW’s rarely disappointed me with its DC properties.
Walker Texas Ranger reboot? That's a thing too? Huh...
Resisting urge to make Chuck Norris jokes aside, not sure am really feeling it with the Stargirl show. It just seems kinda there, and while I have some familiarity with her, she just seems like one of the B tier heroes or so. Who knows though, maybe the pilot will surprise me.
Is she drinking age? They're going for an older Stargirl, comic is something like Billy Batson's age (Lead to a funny admonishment from the JSA old guard about Cap flirting with someone half his age)

When did the president become a woman again? Last I watched the show, some guy was threatening Supergirl to take a loyalty oath.

cdtm: What the Hell am I lookin’ at? When does this happen in the show?
Riv6672: Now. Whatever you’re looking at now, is happening now.
cdtm: Well, what happened to then?
Riv6672: We just passed it.
cdtm: When?
Riv6672: Just now.
cdtm: Well, go back to then.
Riv6672: We can’t.
cdtm: Why not?
Riv6672: We already passed it.
cdtm: When will then be now?
Riv6672: Soon.
We get more fallout from the event, as it drives both the A and B plot. We get more Lex, which is awesome, and Jesse Rath really got a chance to shine.
Also, I never connected the fact that he and HAWAII 5-0’s Meaghan Rath are siblings!
Mxyzptlk as a plot device was a great way to celebrate the show’s 100th ep.
Lots of Easter eggs, some cameos, and alt realities galore. Alex took a back seat to Lena this time out, but I get it, as the Lens angle is the one that’s pivotal this season.
Really though, this was a smart fun hour this week.
Thomas Lennon as Mxyzptlk was pretty fun. He also played Amazo on JUSTICE LEAGUE ACTION, so he’s got his DC bad guy cred down!
