'Conviction (1)'
A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
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.
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"
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.
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.
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.
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.

Cisco walks into Jitters...
Cisco: I'll have a large coffee and a glazed donut.
Barrista: What's a donut?
Cisco: Damn it, Barry!
That would be AWESOME.
Y'all call for tech support?

That's the thing, isn't it? For people trying to preserve time lines, the Legends do seem to kill a lot of bad guys back in history. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. Any change (step on a bug or a seedling) could have a similar effect, especially the farther back you go.
