Or so i’ve Read.

^ According to wiki final episode of Arrow is episode 10 airing first on 28th January.

The Arrow Crisis Episode is Episode 8 airing Jan 14th.

So guess Crisis isnt happening all in 1 week (gives me plenty of time to download the Batwoman crisis episode from somewhere), and guess Arrow has 2 more episodes post Crisis.

At least they’ve made it nice and simple for us to keep track of... 😛

To be fair, Crisis will be basically Oliver Queen's sendoff, and perhaps some others as well... That said, do like how Arrow's final season has been leading up to it, with Ollie getting to know his kids better and all, even though I don't really plan to watch their spinoff show/Arrow's forced sequel.

That's kind of the point. How I understand it is the actual airing schedule is buggered up where Darth Thor lives, which means the crossover episodes will air out of sync and/or have some episodes missing for him, unless he is willing to torrent them or something.

As to Legends, as I understand it, it is part of the crossover and that episode will kick off the season. I might be wrong though, as I haven't checked the latest news on that. Because, as far as I know, they are doing it three episodes (Supergirl, Batgirl, Flash), then a break, and then the final two (Arrow finale, Legends season premiere). But, like I said, I haven't checked in a while.

^^^what you understand is what’s happening, as far as I understand;
3 eps starting Sunday, break, then 2 in January, and LoT premiering w. part 5.

It's beginning to feel like they kind of overreached a bit, IMO. Like they were trying to do the CW equivalent of Endgame, and sticking everyone and their aunt in there in some capacity, but didn't take into account how big of an undertaking it would actually be, especially to get it to a wider audience.

Still crossing my fingers and hoping for the best though. And lol, I wouldn't be surprised if those last 2 Arrow episodes are a backdoor spin-off attempt for 2nd generation of Arrow, with the kids taking over. Which will probably go about as well as their backdoor spin-off attempts with Supernatural went.

CW shows are horrible.

^^^Hey, I would have totally watched Wayward Sisters!

Just finished tonight’s ep. and, it took up to his last scene, but Bloodwork finally seemed compelling, w. his insistence on him being there, that wicked transformation, and the confidence that he’d eventually escape custody.

I'm still catching up, I'm on the 7th episode,(the 8th episode just aired yesterday).

So the fight between Ramsey and Ralph looked bad. I normally am not one to complain about special effects on a tv show, but damn.

Bloodwork's monster form looked sweet, I'll say that much. Yeah, hopefully that's not the last of him, and he's just down for the moment so they can focus on Crisis.

Yeah, one thing I can still appreciate about this show. Whether it's Grodd, King Shark or Bloodwork, they aren't afraid to portray these villains in all their weird glory. I kind of want to see a CW Killer Croc lol, just to see what they can come up with. I am sure it would be better than the roided out GoT Stone Man we got in the Suicide Squad movie. Might even get it on Batwoman. I don't watch that one, but there was apparently a reference to the character at some point.

^^yeah there was a Croc mention.
They’ve name dropped a bunch of characters.

While I agree the Bloodwork/Ralph fight was underwhelming, the monstrous end form made up for it.
Ralph is a case of just not being able to do his power justice most of the time. He’s had some good moments though.

First Post Crisis Flash ep. was pretty good.

Spoiler:
Diggle showed up, but no GL Ring yet. I think he gets it after this, time wise. This ep. was all about Team Flash needing to slow down, adjust to the new status quo, mourn their dead, and refocus their priorities and goals.
We got to see a villainous Dr. Light who was actually pretty competent.
The re-opening and immediate robbing of, Jitters was lol worthy.
“Gimme all the money in the register”!
“Dude, we JUST reopened, there’s hardly anything in there.”
“Well...i’m Gonna start blowing up stuff”.
Iris got dragged into a mirror at the end of the ep. which promises some fun.
And, Cisco is gone again, but not before having some closure w. Indiana/Pariah Wells, and giving us a map of PC earth....:

....That was nice of him, and it’s not even Easter!
With Cisco gone I wonder if his gf Kamilla will at least mention him occasionally since she’s working at the Citizen.

Episode was fine overall, but one of the issues for Cisco's angst is just plain wrong, according to what we are shown and what has been stated behind the scenes regarding the DC multiverse. He goes on about

Spoiler:
how Earth Prime is the only one left and all that, but we literally see multiple other Earths get restored after Crisis. And the producers themselves have also weighed in:

So, I found that part kind of stupid. Could have easily still focused on the loss element (which is still enormous) without contradicting what they just finished establishing.

Is it possible he doesn’t know?
Seems odd that he wouldn’t.

It's most likely just a case of the writers screwing up. But I suppose if we have to think of an in-canon reason, could be the

Spoiler:
alternate Earths are now detectable on different scanning frequencies or something? Cisco did mention everything was out of wack to the point that they hadn't even figured out how to get the breaching devices working Post-Crisis. So, maybe he was looking in the wrong spot or via the wrong mechanism.
Or, as I said, lazy writers are lazy.

i forget this thread exists lol

anyways i felt this weeks ep was a filler episode.. diggle's scebes with barry were th best part tough

and please can they finally killl off iris

Both are good explanations, and neither is unbelievable! 😛
