Tonight's crossover episode was pretty cool. I don't know why, but I felt like the Arrow characters were acting a bit out of character. I still can't wait till the conclusion tomorrow.
Last night's Gotham episode was also awesome. I'm not sure how I feel about Jim's decision at the end regarding Galavant, but otherwise I really enjoyed it. I really liked Bruce in this episode. I can definitely see him growing up to be Batman. Also, Was that Mr. Freeze? I can't wait till the show comes back.

Neal McDonough at the start of the Flash Episode was so much fun. I love this villain. I usually like him, but he seemed less menacing than usual here. Maybe its because he doesn't usually go on these kinds of raids personally, or maybe its because they stopped him at the beginning and then we didn't see him again, but I didn't like him as much in this episode. Same with Merlyn. He seemed to be there only to provide exposition, and his hiding in the shadows routine seemed kind of dumb in this episode.

Damien was meant for a bit of humor and doing "Arrow Status Quo". He was fun and didn't mind it. Though his non-plussed reaction to the Flash just showing up was funny. Though Merlyn was just weird.

i dont think they quite got the hawks skill set down. but since geoff johns revamped them into the tragic reincarnated lovers i thought they were perfect super heroes for fangirls . but probably way SFX heavy for the cw.

That was the background for the Smallville version of Hawkman, played by Michael Shanks (best known for playing Dr Daniel Jackson in Stargate SG-1). Since I didn't start watching until after it had finished, I've no idea how viewers took to this version of Hawkman.

Watched both parts with my mom, she had a very good point about the flash, if you were just watching arrow, the b-plot was confusing as hell.

No, the Harrison Wells and Velocity-6 plot. She picked up on the kid part, but the through plot of the Flash made no sense to her.

Well, the Harrison Wells and Velocity 6 plot was in the Flash episode. If you're just going to watch a mid-season episode of Flash with no context, you should expect to be confused.

If it was a normal episode, where someone sits down and decides to just watch. but if you are watching Arrow, and because of this cross over you decide to watch the flash episode as the lead up, which is pretty necessary for the arrow episode, that plot line is incredibly confusing. It is perhaps not the best idea to devote so much time of that episode to plot elements that make little sense and becomes distracting to the rest of the story.

I have been behind on Arrow and just watched a few episodes to catch up. I just need to say how much I hate the show's take on Laurel Lance. I have since the first season. Every season I hope she gets better, and I keep hating her. She's the most selfish character in the show and has not made a single thoughtful or good decision it's entire run.

Completely agree. well i was just saying the other day to my buddy. laurel is supposed to be the first lady of the arrow mythos a major major character but as the show goes on she fades further and further into the background. felicity is the number 1 gal of the show. digg and thea ae getting more plot time this year than laurel . lots of time she is just sort of there. i liked her training with nyssa last season.

The crossover was OK but I don't like the idea that you have to watch both series to get a whole story. Last year they had a crossover event you didn't need to see both parts of. This though was a clear part 1 and 2. Means when people watch the series in years to come on, say, The Flash DVD set they're going to think "Where's the rest of it?"
Also, I'd rather we got Flash and Arrow stories. So much of the respective seasons so far have been nothing but set up for Legends Of Tomorrow.

Last night's Supergirl was cool. {Spoiler} I've been pretty sure that Henshaw is the Martian Manhunter ever since we first saw his eyes turn red, but I'm glad that its finally been confirmed. And, unlike in Smallville, we actually got to see his Martian form.
