Caught up on this. A few days late thanks to catching up on Agent Carter.
Average episode but the resolution at the end was great. After Alex told her, I said "hug her Kara, damnit". Then they hug. Hank starts to walk away and I say "reassure him Kara" and then he grabs his arm. Great family moment.
Laura Vandervoort tried her hardest, but that was some bad costume design and weak dialogue. She deserved better.
Could the Legion possibly be the next big crossover and show? If Supergirl gets another season and a full blown CW crossover, it seems they could be the focus. The Legion ring was also shown in the Flash episode which is odd if it's just a Supergirl plotline. They also exist in a weird space where every Berlanti show could conceivably use them:
- Supergirl: she was a member of the Legion, as were other Super family characters. Also a title character for a short run.
- The Flash: Impulse is from the time period, XS is a family member and Legionnaire and Barry and Iris spent time in the future.
- Legends of Tomorrow: it's the time travel show, duh. Booster (Rip's father) is loosely associated with the Legion too.
- Arrow: begs for scraps.
