Thanks.  The TVLine recapper made it sound like she was bad.  Relieved! 

J'onn is having difficulty dealing with his preconceptions.  It's a season long theme actually.

About Sara's sexuality, was she attracted to Cold last season?

I mean, they flirted a bunch, played cards a few times, had a few personal conversations, were almost planning on running away together, and she kissed him, so I took it as she being attracted to him. I was cool with how they portrayed Sara's sexuality last year since I saw it as her being attracted to both a man and a woman at some point (although, granted, the Snart/Sara pairing only really became a thing because of WM and CL, so idk about giving the show all the credit)

The preliminary ratings just measure everyone watching during that time period, whether they were watching the show, or football.  And a lot more people are probably watching during that time because football is on, so the ratings go up.  The final ratings take out the people who weren't actually watching the show, but were watching football, and so they go down.

They're trying to hype this big crossover coming up, but yet the CW doesn't have the 'Fight Club 2.0' video with all the biggest heroes up anymore. The video can be found elsewhere of course; but you'd think they'd want to use that for marketing.

Yeah, I noticed that too, but the side building also says "STAR Labs," so I guess just a shout-out in image form? Or maybe it is and the explanation is that it's also a STAR labs facility or something? Or I guess that's where the meeting of all of them takes place?

I saw somewhere that

Spoiler

it's an aircraft hangar.

Are you really referring to Cold trying to force her to ditch the team against her will by threatening her with the Cold Gun while she refused "almost planning on running away together"?

Meant the moment later in that same episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMgp4T7jrQs  (The part when Snart said that he was thinking about the future for him and her and him and her to which she flirted back with him and set up her kissing him in the following episode)

It's not really making definite plans, but it was showing me that he wanted a future that had her in it and that she wasn't opposed to the idea.

Oh geez what happened now?

Caitlin told Barry that everything happening now is his fault and how everyone else suffers because of him. Which is true. Barry then moped about it for about 2 seconds before Iris showed up to tell him he was just in pain and everyone needs the Flash. That was her entire storyline.

Not to mention justifying Barrys actions "well they could've been killed by a car" like wtf? 

To be fair, it's because Dante was killed by a car in this timeline and she was just pointing out that could have still been on track for him in version one.

You can say what you want about Felicity's lack of storyline, but at least her entire purpose isn't to give pep talks to the hero like Iris. 

According to Kevin Smith...

"Iris’s role in her day to day adventures is being Barry’s spine - his soul"

So yeah... I don't see her getting a storyline anytime soon other than being Barry's love interest/life/spine/soul whatever. Such a shame. Candice deserves better.

The sad thing is the writers think that's a great storyline for Iris and that we should be happy with that. Who wants a well developed female character with her own storylines when we can have Iris' sole purpose be to give the Flash pep talks whenever he needs one. What, she has a father on the show, that doesn't matter the man has two sons, they are more important than a daughter.

Why can't Barry grow a spine of his own?  Maybe if people stopped making excuses for him and telling him how wonderful he is, he could grow up a little.

Whenever I see a hero need repetitive pep talks to build him up (and that includes Oliver,) I always think of freakin' Teen Wolf when Scott told his mom that Allison was his anchor and he didn't know what to do without her, and his mom replied that he needed to be his own anchor. Mama McCall knows what's up. Dammit, Teen Wolf, you got something right. 

Also, Buffy's no friends, no family, what's left? Me. 

In short, man up heroes. You absolutely needs friends and family, but you also need inner fortitude. Find some.

Poor EK, having the flu while shooting the crossover and having to lie down and keep warm between takes.  When you 're sick, you should be allowed to stay home and get better but I guess they had to shoot those scenes then and there.

Arthur Darville writes music too?  He's having a good year.

That Buffy quote is one of my all time favourite Buffy moments. Even with how aged BTVS is I still think Buffy could teach Barry and Oliver a thing or two. 

Buffy will always be relevant. None of these new superhero shows can hold a candle to BtVS.

And yeah, that was probably one of my favorite TV moments, ever.
