Belated comment on Supergirl. So virus was designed to target non-Kryptonian DNA. And it did not effect humans? Cause humans aren't aliens. I would think that on Krypton humans were included in the category "alien". One throw away line might have explained it. Or will this be a plot point down the road?
And now my boy's in love. All hearts and flowers. But, doesn't it freak you out that she used to change your diapers? I mean, when you think about it, the first woman you boned is the closest thing you've ever had to a mother. Doing your mom and trying to kill your dad. Hm. There should be a play.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact that someone could engineer a virus that would be instantly deadly to an infinite number of biologically diverse organisms except one (well, I imagine they probably didn't want it to affect the non-humanoid Kryptonian species either. A war that still wipes out every other living being on the planet wouldn't be much of a win.)
My other question is how would Cadmus even know Medusa existed?

That was the one that occurred to me.

Elsewhere people are speculating that Medusa will be involved in defeating the Dominators, thus making the Supergirl episode more cross-overy than it initially appeared.
ION, Stephen Amell posted on Facebook that tonight's episode of Arrow is number 100.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
If anyone is wondering where the Queen Family Feels are, I seem to have ended up with ALL OF THEM. (Geez, Amell, stop gutting me with your sad face.)
On a lighter note: seen on Twitter: "No way did Oliver put on those alien scrubs. An alien stripped the Green Arrow & if that didn't make them spare the human race, nothing will"

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Okay, so that *was* a riff on "For the Man Who Has Everything," but that was REALLY well done.

Jeez, I cried several times.
I'm a little bummed they couldn't get Manu Bennett or Colin Donnell (although the line about Tommy being a doctor in Chicago was AWESOME), but the rest of it was great.
I still think the alien invasion dealie is fairly cheesy (although I loved Curtis being totally excited to hack alien tech), but this crossover is a hell of a lot of fun.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
It took me a second for Ray's (or rather Brandon Routh's) line about Kara resembling his cousin to sink in, but when it did I laughed and laughed.
I'd figured they'd have to acknowledge Routh having played Superman at some point in the cross over, but it still caught me completely by surprise.
Felicity's comment about seeing Kara was like looking in a mirror was pretty funny, too.
Arrow was terrific last night. The finale on Legends wasn't as good, but it was fun, and I loved the end with Oliver and Barry sitting in the bar knocking back beers.

That probably got the biggest laugh from me.

I did love Felicity and Cisco saving the day, though I'm going to tell myself they didn't shoot people to death in 1951 and alter the timeline.
Although at this point, the combined 3-show universe (well, I guess just the Flash and Legends of Tomorrow) has fucked up the timeline so badly it should be like that Treehouse of Horror where Homer time-travelled and fucked everything up beyond recognition.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I haven't watched the Legends episode yet, but I did watch Arrow finally. I think my expectations were too high, but I thought it was okay. Too much Laurel, who I still don't care about, and I don't believe Ollie when he says he loved her. I would have liked to see Walter though.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
The cousin line made me cringe, but then I didn't like it when they gave Routh some cutesy Superman reference on that abysmal sitcom he did with Michael Urie either.
Was anyone else wondering why the team didn't have Supergirl intercept the gene bomb and fling it into space? Though from an audience perspective it was still neat to see Firestorm deal with it.
