Reviews of this series by the user NinadeL (6)

The Flash (2014) 

English I'll just wait for Gotham and Pennyworth to be over and then I will see. But the very fact that an Amazon series was originally in the pipeline and Arrow ended up getting this spin-off is quite perilous... So far, The Flash has been running for seven years and has revived memories of its 1990s predecessor, which is a good idea. Crossovers are interesting in their own right, that's not a problem. Otherwise, I really don't have the nerve for it. ()

Invasion! (2016) (S03E08) 

English Invasion! continues and Barry introduces everyone to his new friend Kara. Unfortunately, some of the supporting characters from the Arrowverse are annoying, typically Cisco Ramon... I really don't need that in Supergirl. ()

Duet (2017) (S03E17) 

English An excellent episode, a nice retro, and overall a good idea. For seasoned viewers, the musical episode is not a problem; anyone who remembers Xena or Buffy knows that musical episodes are pure gold. And although I'm not a fan of Barry and Iris, their song is truly magical. Kara's version of the famous "Moon River" was just as big a surprise, but what really put a smile on my face was the funny tap dance number with great lyrics on the theme of super friends. ()

Elseworlds, Part 1 (2018) (S05E09) 

English Considering that the whole Elseworlds event was mainly to introduce Batwoman, I don't have a problem with it. Yet one has to realize that the CW version of DC stories is simply the teen light or young adult version. You might therefore be surprised how different the book "Elseworlds" can be... ()

Armageddon, Part 3 (2021) (S08E03) 

English The first three episodes of Armageddon were almost unbearable. The guest appearances of Ray Palmer from Legends of Tomorrow and Jefferson Pierce from Black Lightning had no energy. Fortunately, it all improved with the transition to the year 2031. ()

Armageddon, Part 4 (2021) (S08E04) 

English The Armageddon crossover began airing on November 16, 2021, a week after Supergirl concluded its sixth and final season on November 9, 2021, and Batwoman was then halfway through its final third season. It was very emotional to see Alex again and hear her talk about her marriage with Kelly (their wedding was the culmination of Supergirl). It was equally great to experience Ryan talking about her plans to adopt with Sophie (even though their relationship hadn't been confirmed in the main series at that time). At the same time, these were somewhat spoilers because this part of the event takes place in an alternate future in the year 2031. Nevertheless, it was a beautiful reunion with beloved characters against the backdrop of the classic battle between Flash and Reverse-Flash. ()
