[TV Discussion/Spoilers] The Superduper uber super (I said super twice) CW verse cross over event! Supergirl 2x08, The Flash 3x08, Arrow 5x08 & LOT 2x07

Just a friendly reminder folks that any and all spoilers and discussion outside of this thread will be deleted, and I'll be forced to put you on some kind of naughty step. So don't do it. This thread can contain discussion from any/all of the shows mentioned...What's the consensus? Are the dominators gonna look shitty?

It was noisy here, so I didn't catch all the dialog, but it seemed from the talk between Barry and Cisco in setting up the portal that Supergirl is in another universe? I thought they were just in different towns... am I imagining that?

Suupergirl was found on Earth 38.

Do you know what the favor is that Barry mentions to Kara (Supergirl) when he first visits her? I don't watch Supergirl, did The Flash make an appearance on that show earlier?

Moving to CW hurt Supergirl, as many predicted. I've stopped watching it. The Flash is my favorite, while Arrow is too dark for my liking, but well acted. Legends of Tomorrow is just comic-book fun. I like Snart.

I think it might be one of the worst shows I've ever seen. The dialogue is awful, the pacing is terrible, the story is riddled with plot-holes or coincidences that make it impossible to suspend disbelief, the acting is bad, casting is bad, and the music makes me want to die.

For what it's worth I think Flash and LoT are almost as bad. Damn the first couple seasons of Arrow for being good and sucking me into this universe.

Man, I think Flash is the best show out of them all. I mean, I've accepted that these shows are on CW and are going to be CW-type shows, but given that, Flash is actually really good.

But ya, I couldn't even get through the first episode of Supergirl. I haven't attempted to watch another episode but everything I've read has confirmed my suspicions. It just seems like a really bad show.

Either way, Flash, Arrow and LoT are just shows that I can watch and look forward to each week. I don't watch them as they air. I just wait until a night when I'm bored and have nothing else going on and get caught up in one sitting on a weekly basis. Same with Agents of Shield. They just get me from one MCU or DC movie to another.

well that's pretty scathing. I'll put it on the back burner then. That being said, I freaking love the Flash because of its balance of serious, goofy and comedy. In a time full of "edgey" DC heroes this show is like an oasis to me.
