Flamebird?"<br /><br />Have to wait and see. Chyler is currently playing coy on where this development is going. However, I think it would be kind of cool if Kara gets to name Alex's new ID.<br /><br />"We see the classic Leviathan/Manhunter symbol, a good starting point. I know that might be Rama Khan. But maybe it is a sly Brian Michael Bendis cameo??"<br /><br />Probably, since the series has nodded towards comic book creators in subtle ways like this in past seasons. :)<br /><br />Seems to me that everybody brought their A-game into this episode. Stellar performances all around. <br /><br /><br />KET <br /><br />KEThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13797904604074311480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-42023548710908964512020-05-14T05:01:27.462-04:002020-05-14T05:01:27.462-04:00Ever since Lena found out that Supergirl has been ...Ever since Lena found out that Supergirl has been her best friend all this time I was eager to see how things would play out.<br /><br />I think Lena as a character has been great for the series being someone who's complex because your not really sure of her motives at times while at the same developing what could seem like an unlikely friendship with our heroine's alter ego and now being an anti villain this season. <br /><br />I like how Kara was on her guard in the last scene as Lena has been so convincing feigning friendship it was almost tragic in the earlier episodes Lena saying the things you would expect her to say to Kara all the while it was a pretense. <br /><br />Both Beniost and McGrath performances have been spectacular.<br /><br /> Ja50n1cnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-48273611112830011222020-05-13T22:03:26.361-04:002020-05-13T22:03:26.361-04:00Geez Brainiac 5 could screw up a two car funeral, ...Geez Brainiac 5 could screw up a two car funeral, even a jobber like Mon-El could Lex is a chronic schemer and utterly untrustworthy. Oh and Lex has killed Steve...I'd find it hilarious if Steve kept somehow surviving these horrific fates and came back next season as rabbity as ever.<br />I dunno I'm pretty much stuck in the house until further notice, I may spend the summer being a supercorp shipper, I mean there is nothing else to do...<br />The thing that makes the McGrath/Benoist scenes click is the they are both actresses with strong technique, in other words they can elevate mediocre material. In this case Lena digitized Eve earlier this year quite coldly (I guess that was rewritten by The Crisis, or was it?) and has shown a chilly preference for using human subjects in her experiments like a Dr. Mengele in Manolo Blahniks. But her vibe with Kara is so strong, we tend to forget and forgive all that...<br />On the other hand her brother could well end up depopulating the planet to become immortal, his anti Leviathan agenda seems like more a classic grab for power and advantages. Agree with above, Jon Cryer is a bargain at double his current price, all his scenes just sizzle. I hope he can come back next year...assuming there is a next year.<br />Anyway, I have a feeling the season finale is gonna be a chaotic mess par excellence, this is mostly driven my circumstances beyond everyone's control, just thought I'd put that out there. Who knows when the show will return to production anyway? Benoist's Blessed Event and Covid19 notwithstanding. <br />My point is, Sunday night might be the last Supergirl we see for a while, lets try and enjoy it however we must.<br /><br />JFAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-23711273202223767692020-05-13T08:40:12.735-04:002020-05-13T08:40:12.735-04:00Really loved this episode.
