I gave up on Batwoman 2 episodes in, did anything happen on that show which impacted crisis ?

Love the cameos so far. It would have been great to get anyone from the Titans series to actually be fully in the crossover instead of a cameo as it would give some
boost to the DC Universe service, which I’ve heard, isn’t doing as well as they expected

OK I was not prepared for Burt to throw out a holy quip. That brought a tear. Whul on Earth 89 was unexpected as well. Awesome stuff. And Titans!

No. It was the first place that the Wells epilogue was shown but other than that, nothing directly with the Crisis. Isn’t the Batwoman show like 5 -7 years behind the Arrowverse current events? The first season of Batwoman is more about how she became Batwoman

The intro was amazing. Whul and Elfman's Batman theme was just pure delight. Burt Ward was quick but great as well.

So what’s the deal with Superman? He couldn’t just fly off of there with Lois and the kid?

No, Batwoman is caught up to the current Arrowverse timeline as of episode 4.

The showrunner Caroline Dries tweeted it out last month.

Look like there is an aftershow hosted by Kevin Smith.

No powers on Argo City

Can’t believe Ollie went out on the first part

An almost 5 week gap between parts 3 and 4? That was poorly planned.

Will Wheaton as a crazy guy with a sign?

It’s a ratings plan. Lots of shows do this type of cliffhanger in the Christmas season and come back in the new year with the end of the story since more people will be at their home watching

He said he no powers there.

That was pretty wild. Loved all the cameos.

And man, I did not expect that ending. RIP Oliver. He did go out like a boss. I've grown to like Mia and I've enjoyed all Kat McNamara's scenes with Amell as of late. That was an emotional last scene with all of them together.

and they took out a shit load of others. Jason Todd and Hank's cameo from Titans was a nice surprise and they got quickly taken out. I guess they have to cancel Titans now. rotfl And I :lol: when old Dick Grayson got taken out as well. :lol:

One complaint I had was Batwoman's introduction into the crossover. That whole fight sequence was terribly staged and directed. You couldn't see shit. If you were a little confused on why Kate was on a warpath because you don't watch Batwoman, it picks up after the last episode where Alice killed Kate's Stepmom by poisoning her.

Welp that was a bit of a spoiler for those who haven’t caught up with batwoman

The After Show is on the CW app in case you missed it after the telecast.

I missed the first half hour, so I’ll check it out.

Re: Crisis on Infinite Earths (The CW) -- 5 part crossover event
 
So Supergirl’s show is now changed dramatically after what happened. Earth 38 is now gone including their version on National City and Metropolis. It’s going to be a very different show when it comes back as it’s own in the new year.

stingermck 12-09-19 05:41 AM

Re: Crisis on Infinite Earths (The CW) -- 5 part crossover event
 
It would be awesome if Robin and Hawk got pulled out by Harbinger. The final ep could have a lot of fight cameos like Endgame.

I guess we'll have to see where they're at when the whole thing is over, -if there's some version of a re-set or if they've consolidated these worlds (which was the original intention of the "Crisis" comics series).

Tonight's Black Lightning episode title changed from The Book of Resistance: Chapter Four: Third Stone From the Sun to The Book of Resistance: Chapter Four: Earth Crisis.

It is not officially apart of the crossover. Not sure how it will fit in. The preview just shows the sky as red during some scenes.

If they combine universes Earth-1 just got an extra 3 billion people. Doesn’t seem sustainable.

Not if the duplicates don't show up. It could be interesting if one random duplicate of each person remains and the other duplicates disappear. Oops, Bob is now the Earth-27 version! Alternatively only the Earth-1 version remains. Supergirl appears to be unique, but there are many versions of The Flash and Green Arrow.

That's where this all gets confusing. It's that 3 billion people that has me wondering if they'll undo the deaths of these worlds, -or at least some of them. Since we would be gaining a Supergirl, -and eventually a Superman and all that comes with it, -is there a Metropolis for them to go to? Or would there be a new norm for those characters?

All of the Supergirl centric material served to remind me why I stopped watching Supergirl. Apparently James left the show earlier in the year. Also, I guess Berlanti vet Julie Gonzalo joined the show this year. I always liked her.

So after eight years...that's how they kill Oliver. Silly death especially if you consider leaving one of the super powered people as the last fighter on Earth-38 would have served the same purpose as Oliver, and...you know...they probably wouldn't have died.

I loved the Robert Wuhl cameo though.
