Supergirl Season 1 Episode 16 "Falling" Review
Red Kryptonite makes Kara malicious and dangerous while Cat appears on The Talk (2010) to discuss Supergirl.
This was a really great and fun episode that took a lot of different material and actually managed to mix it all together really well. The whole part of actually introducing the Red Kryptonite to Kara was really weird with it being sort of hidden amongst a fire. Then it was even worse when the truth was actually reviled saying that Maxwell was actually planning on using it on Non because how was a simple satellite dish ever really going to attract Non enough for the Red Kryptonite to actually work, and even then I feel one of Non's henchmen would have gone instead of Non himself and when that henchman started acting weird he probably would have been caged up or killed, so how was this ever going to work out right. It was really fun to see Kara in these very drastic different outfits and how she still managed to do everything the same at first but with a slightly different twist to it. Then as the episode went on she just became more and more aggressive all leading to the awesome scene where Supergirl those Cat off of her building. Like I said now that Winn and James know the location of the DEO it really seems like they can just walk in and out completely freely. And Maxwell as well was weird too when he just kind of walks in a admits his mistake and then offers to help them fix Supergirl it just seemed really weird and out of place. Then where did Kara get that new uniform from at the end because it really seemed to come out of nowhere and is it just like some kind of standard issue uniform on Krypton that everyone seems to have it is some form? The ending fight scene was interesting and I can't wait to see what they are going to do about Hank. Overall this was a really fun and interesting episode.
Supergirl Season 2 Episode 15 "Solitude" Review
Kara travels to the Fortress of Solitude hoping to find information on how to defeat Indigo, a being from her past who can travel through the Internet. In the meantime, James and Lucy reach a crossroads in their relationship.
This was a very interesting episode with a really nice villain that I wish that we could have gotten to know a bit more of in this episode. Because with Indigo they just kind of threw her in there with a little back story but it was really confusing and kind of put out there like it is supposed to be common sense for everyone. They did say that that Indigo had some kind of background with Non, but what was it? And like how long was Indigo around before she finally decided to make herself known because I think they did say that she only could really make herself known because of the solar flares going on, but besides that has she been just hanging around on the internet since prison crashed. The moment of showing the Fortress of Solitude was really great with showing all these mementos from different things that are important to Superman. I don't really remember Superman ever taking James to the fortress but that is not that big of an issue in my mind because it could have easily been Kara who knew its location even though she had never been there herself. And I don't know how I feel about the idea of telling Lucy about Kara's secret but maybe it might be good for the group once they finally get around to doing so. The relationship between Winn and Siobhan but at least we don't have to worry about him constantly pinning over Kara that much anymore, or at least until Siobhan eventually probably breaks his heart. Overall this was a really great episode with some especially great moment to it.

Scorpion Season 2 Episode 23 "Toby or Not Toby" Review
The team races against time to stop an unstable ex-member of Scorpion, Mark Collins who kidnaps and threatens to kill Toby if his demands are not met.
This was a really great season finally episode because it was just really all about the team and not adding any new or extra people going to a far over and different location. The whole kidnapping of Toby was interesting with the fact of how it all went down, and I thought that Toby had dropped the ring along with his phone but I guess that turned out to not be true.But the fact that Sylvester was the only one besides Toby to know about Toby's plans was a little weird in my mind because out of all the characters I feel Sylvester would have the hardest time trying to keep a secret, and he defiantly did. Then Marks whole plan was very interesting with the fact that he really didn't want anything he just wanted to destroy the team and prove that they have changed since he has left. His whole Jigsaw like trap was really fun especially when the team finally figured out a way around it. Then the "torture" scene with Toby was really cool with how it was done but not as fun with how quickly the rest of the team figured out it was fake. The ending was really sad at moments but also really sweet at others, even though I'm still not a big fan of the idea of Walter and Paige potentially becoming a couple. Overall I really enjoyed this episode and I can't wait for the next season.

Gotham Season 2 Episode 22 "Transference" Review
While Gordon, Bruce, and Lucius remain at Indian Hill, the city of Gotham will be met with a new threat as Hugo Strange's inmates devise a plan to escape and start their new lives in Gotham.
This was really great episode especially a really great episode to end the season on. I did like the whole sort of plot in this episode was to get the last of the experiment out of Arkham and then to blow it up. I was especially happy when it got to the point that I kind of been waiting half a season for which if the fight between Firefly and Mr.Freeze. I felt the scene could have been done a bit better but ti still was a really great moment in of itself. But I'm curious to know if they survived what they did to each other because the scene showed them starting to fight but then really didn't show them again at all. Then the fake Gordon going back to the GCPD was very fun to see, but ti was also kind of odd with the fact that everyone seemed to realize that something was off with Gordon but they didn't seem to question any of it. And the fact that it took Barbra showing up for them to realize that it wasn't Gordon. Then with that, the moment with Penguin felt a little odd and out of place and like they just wanted to put Penguin in this final episode but it didn't serve much of a purpose besides getting Barbra to the GCPD with a reason to be there. Then the ending was really great to see all this massive fear now that Fish Moony is back and the realized of all these monsters. I'm still not a big fan of the future Poison Ivy storyline because of the fact of how they are going about suddenly making her much older. But I am curious to see how that sudden gain in age might affect her relationship with Selina. Then there decision to add in Jerome's laugh as the monsters were leaving the bus makes me hopeful that he might be back soon, even with Cameron saying see you in a season or two. I feel they are going to keep Jerome on the backburner until the viewers might drop a bit and then bring him in to make people excited for the show again. Overall I really enjoyed this episode and I can't wait for the next season starting next week.

Supergirl Season 1 Episode 14 "Truth, Justice and the American Way" Review
Kara battles the Master Jailer while dealing with a second assistant at CatCo and disagreeing with James over the DEO’s methods.
This was a very interesting episode that I really don’t know how I feel about it. A part that kind of confused me was the DEO’s confusion of who this person going around killing the escaped prisoners was. But it wasn’t that I didn’t like that they couldn’t figure out his actual identity it was more that they couldn’t decide if is was another escaped prisoner, a jailer, or just some random person until the very end when they discover his identity. But in all that time they have all this information on the jailers of the prison that I feel they could have matched his uniform to the jailers uniform. Then I really wished to know what this jailer’s whole plan was because he just seemed to be killing the prisoners now matter their crimes and when asked he said that he was recreating the prison, so how do those two things work out. And the jailer also said that he was happy that he and Supergirl were doing similar work but then he was also more than willing to kill her, all that I was just really confused on. Then James showing up at the DEO unasked just like I was expecting was nice with him finally setting in stone that maybe keeping Maxwell isn’t the smartest of ideas. I did like the parts at Catco with the new assistant seeming to be everywhere and no one really seeming to like her. And I kind of can’t wait to see what the plan with this new assistant might be. Overall I really enjoyed this and it had a lot of great parts to it.

Supergirl Season 1 Episode 13 "For the Girl Who Has Everything" Review
A parasitic alien attaches itself to Kara and traps her in a world where Krypton was never destroyed, leaving Alex, Hank, and the DEO to fend off a Kryptonian attack without her.
This was a really great episode that showed a bit of how the DEO would survive now that they have gotten so used to have Kara around. I liked seeing Kara's dreams of her back on Krypton and her living this perfect life and slowly forgetting all about her real life back on earth. But I find it a bit weird that they decided to show her slowly forgetting about the real world by having her forget the name earth when ever she was trying to talk about this other life. All the parts back at Catco were really fun with James and Winn coming up with all this different stuff to try and explain why Kara wasn't there. Then when Hank tried to disguise himself as Kara to help lessen that fact that Kara was missing but then in the end his comment saying that he has faced a lot of stuff but Cat had to be the worse. I don't know how I feel about James and Winn being brought to the DEO because I feel that in the future they are just going to walk into the DEO without permission now that they know where it is located. Then the parts with Astra were a bit confusing because she wanted to follow Non but also protect Kara, and the scene were Non confronts Astra about her helping Kara was a bit confusing with his sudden changes in mood. The ending fight with all the Kryptonians was really well done and I'm curious to fully see what Non has planned. And with Astra being out of the picture and the way she was taken out I don't think Alex can keep that secret from Kara for very long. Overall I really enjoyed this episode and i can't wait for the next one.

Arrow Season 4 Episode 23 "Schism" Review
Oliver teams up with a surprising force in an attempt to stop Damien Darhk and his magic once and for all.
This was a really great and interesting episode that was basically all about wrapping everything up. The whole idea of Lyla sending a group of normal people into Darhk layer to try and kill him seemed really kind of stupid and just gave him, even more, power. Then the opening where Darhk tried to get Felicity to come and work for him was interesting but it was mostly about giving Darhk back his daughter and stealing Felicity's computer. Then the getting off of the nukes was interesting with how all of the nukes seemed to be going to kind of random places all over the world. But it did create a really good moment with Oliver speaking to the citizens of Star City and reminding them that they have survived so much already, and all they need to do is stick together. Then Felicity actually coming up with a way to stop the nukes seemed a little odd to me because it was so last moment of a decision. Then the final fight scene between Oliver and Darhk was great with Oliver gaining control of some light magic because all the citizens of Star City believe in him. The ending where everyone breaks off to go rethink their lives and stuff like that was very interesting to see but I don't think it will last too long into the next season. Overall I really enjoyed this episode and I can't wait for the next season.
