    Grace you should watch last years crossover "Crisis on Earth X". If you're after a big crossover that doesn't feel like separate episodes then that's the one. It's why this one doesn't feel as big because the producers didn't want to try and outdo themselves. It's basically a movie because of how seamlessly the episodes blend together

    Are you kidding me? "The actor playing Jay Garrick."

    Evil Dopplegangers: They've official beat this horse to death. Evil versions of everyone and now we double up with Cisco and Diggle. The only one halfway interesting was Jimmy Olson.
    Freaky Friday in the first episode felt so unnecessary. Barry and Oliver are friends and allies. A brain switch works if the two DON'T understand each other. That’s not the case here.

    Perhaps you enjoyed the "Supergirl" segment the most because it was truer to Elseworlds (familiar characters in tweaked scenarios). You're right about the charisma of Benoist, Gustin, & Amell: they're extremely well cast and fill the center of their perspective shows heroically. It is their distinct personalities that separate the series which DO have surprisingly similar settings and supporting players. The highlight of the crossover was the trio playing off each other. Batwoman WAS a throwaway character and probably the only Gotham hero available that the CW/DC could use (Batman, all the Robins, Batgirl, & Birds of Prey tied up in other series or projects). The bland actress brought little and her writers even less. Too bad they didn't use the faceless Question instead.

      (A) I need to catch up on this season, and maybe rewatch Elseworlds a couple of times, but it kind of sounded like this version of Amazo was partly funded by ARGUS, in collaboration with Ivo Labs. Which started me wondering if they're going to send ARGUS down the path of Cadmus Labs with building anti-meta/super tech. Ever since we had (regrettable) Huntress, I've been hoping that the Question will eventually make an appearance.

    Please watch the rest of the shows before you review the crossover. Alot of what you said is very subjective. Ruby rose was not as horrible as you try to make her seem. This crossover was fan service as hell AND it was made to be a smaller crossover introducing batwoman and crisis on infinite earths. Hence why the legends didn't show up. And like I said in a previous comment, please watch crisis on earth x before or even all the other shows fully before you review a crossover you barely jumped into. I'm not saying you shouldn't have watched it, but as for reviewing it, I think you don't know enough of each show to have reviewed it and put it down as if it did nothing.

    How do you give a review about Flash, Green Arrow, and Supergirl and then go on to say you don't follow them in the comics. When I say follow I don't mean what has come out in DC in the last 12 months, you do realize these characters have decades of depth. Then to put a final nail in your coffin you say Supergirl was the only show you watched (briefly), that show needs to give everyone a barf bag every Tuesday when it airs - "Hey I am girl, so I am stronger, smarter, and better than you cuz the producers say so - so there!"

      Shipp has been on The Flash as a recurring/multi-role character since the very beginning. He shows up at least a couple of times every season, hence why Barry thought he was Jay Garrick, and then, even less likely, his own dad. Now he's got a *third* role on the show. He's going to rival Tom Cavanaugh for "actor everyone loves, whose character we keep having to get rid of".

    Psycho Pirate manipulates your emotions. He played a major minor role in Crisis on Infinite Earths by torturing the Flash by amplifying his fear 100x. But Flash being Flash, just tried to run. Not to escape but defeat to the Anti monitor. Although he died, his running travelling thru time was the key to defeating the Anti monitor.

    Best parts were the throwaway easter eggs.

It was the weakest of the crossovers so far with just a few great moments.

    The directors and writers purposely scaled down on the grandeur of this crossover because they wanted to focus more on the Trinity and the people they interact with. Last year's crossover involved everyone, so the dynamic and presence was greater. But there was a struggle to coordinate with all four shows and such a huge cast, which is why they kept things closer and smaller this time around. It also gave them a chance to explore the dynamics of the Trinity and how they play against each other; give a little more development that we don't get from the bigger crossovers.

      @@darkgoddarkseid2824 While everyone likes to shit on season 4 of Arrow, I'd like to remind everyone that it's not entirely bad, and up until the second half was quite good. The episode entitled "Brotherhood" was one of the first episodes to showcase James Bamford's talents, had amazing one shot takes and fight choreography. An article even was written about how it broke new grounds for comic book shows. There was the episode with the resurrection of Sarah Lance with the Lazarus pit, which led to an awesome crossover with John Constantine. Despite one scene of awful CGI, we got a really cool crossover with Vixen, when William was kidnapped. Then there's the 2 episode crossover that set up Legends of Tomorrow, plus the midseason finale of Oliver and Felicity getting shot up in their limo, which was one of the most well written midseason finales the show's done. Afterwards, sure the season started to derail, but the first half was pretty awesome!
