Was there a particular reason that they didn't save Mr. Mxyzptlk for the instigator of this musical crossover instead of wasting him as an entitled creepy stalker played by some wooden spokesmodel with oily hair? Because it seems like a dimension-hopping caper that leads to an entertaining alternate reality would be right up his alley.
Seems like everyone's got a tale to tell.

Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

That Arrow fucked me up. I didn't realized I was that emotionally attached to Oliver Queen. Oh honey. You don't like it; you like the feeling of control it gives you.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
OMG you guys, that Magicians scene. (And at the exact moment when I was thinking "Hey, there are a lot of bits missing!" Margo interrupts and says "I'm sorry, I have to skip around, some of these verses just aren't relevant to our situation." THANK YOU, MARGO, YOU GET IT.)

I think I wish the Flash episode had been maybe an hour and a half, so we could get more of Carlos and Jeremy Jordan (who is a hell of a belter) and Jesse L. Martin and Barrowman and Victor Garber.
Though I do feel like Victor Garber's age is starting to show a wee bit, with the size of his vibrato. It's starting to border on church choir soprano.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
If I don't watch those shows, but love a musical and several of those actors, should I track that one down?

Yeah -- it works pretty well as a standalone, because any backstory you need (which is minimal) is contained within the episode.

I agree with Teppy.

I mean, you might miss the context of a couple of jokes, but it really does work as a standalone, and the cast is fantastic.

No, he's in Supergirl. But the shows crossed over to do the musical episode, and so they tossed him in because of his musical background.
