Spoilers Supergirl - Season 1
- Thread starter Commander Richard
- Start date
That's not what we were promised.
We were promised setup in "Flash Back", not an episode that won't even air until Supergirl's first season is over with.
I think you read too much into Berlanti's comment. Nevertheless, Flash actually makes "the jump" in the next episode.
Go read what he says; he's clearly referring to "Flash Back".
"Flash Back" does set things up nicely to lead into what happens in the Supergirl episode but it does not actually show us the jump.
^ No, it doesn't.
Nothing in "Flash Back" has anything whatsoever to do with setting up "Worlds Finest".

This was the tweet:
Not sure how you can say we read too much into that.

That's completely untrue. This episode established Barry's efforts to increase his speed, and it ended with him getting the specs for a device that will achieve that end. That's clearly setting up "Worlds Finest." You'll see the rest of the setup in the next episode.
I didn't even see that Tweet, but it makes the situation even more disappointing because it doubles down on a promise that wasn't actually fulfilled.
You're really straining there. Seems a pretty clear setup; he was wearing the tachyon device that he just spent this episode learning how to construct.
Since Supergirl isn't coming to the Flash show, they weren't going to show much more of this anyway, just have him mention that it happened, or disappear for a second. How much payoff were you expecting here?

i'm going to have to elaborate on the FLash thread... but I think they purposely made things generic
By the way, any word on the ratings? Certainly #SupergirlxTheFlash was Trending on Twitter
OK...so now is there a new episode next week, or does the lack of a preview mean yet another repeat or special or something?
I don't mind if they go from semesters to trimesters, or if a special event absolutely has to break up a week. But off then on just about every other week is crazy! As someone mentioned (sorry I forgot who) -- that kind of inconsistency is going to sink ratings...and really for no good reason. I know Gotham is off for a couple of weeks as well... are they trying to compete directly, and see how the match-ups do, or something?

I really wonder exactly how/when it fits in... Barry vaguely mentioned Earth 3...which may be a different way of how he dimension hopped there. I am also assuming that they will save that for season 3 (a new earth per season?), and later work on the tachyon thingie to bring him to Earth-SG
Barry's arrival needed setup, we were promised setup, and then didn't get what we were promised.
Re: ratings, WF netted a 1.7 and 7.24 million viewers.

So, for this "big crossover," its not much of an improvement; its back in the range of episode fourteen's ratings. One would think this was the greatest thing since the superhero was first adapted to film, if one believes the small circle of fanboy explosions seen on review shows such as a few on YouTube.
If the "big crossover" did not shoot ratings up to a significant level, who knows what will encourage more to discover--and more importantly--stick with the series.
If you say so.
I'm sure twenty seconds after meeting the next super-powered person either of them encounters (since they had no way of knowing if the other one was a hero, viliain, or really anything else whatsoever, so nothing you said makes any sense, but whatever), they'll not only reveal her identity, but the main protagonist of the show will strip and show off their powers to boot. Then by the end of that same scene they'll be super BFFs taking each other's stories at face value.
He did reveal himself by thinking he was saving Kara's life. Just saying.
Yes. We. Did. It's there -- but it's only half of the setup. Once you see the next Flash episode, you'll see the rest of the setup and you'll realize how premature you were to jump to conclusions today.
Never seen Flash When is it on? Every time they sad Flash in the episode I kept expecting"a-ah" right after it!
