Can’t cut Superman in on this?

They’re probably saving his next apearance for an even bigger episode. Probably to face a bigger threat to supergirl. Maybe superman will help her fight a super villain tag team, or maybe the next main villain after this sesason’s. I’m sure we will see him again.

It would be very cool for Superman to be in the crossover events. I’d like to see him work with the other superheros as well.

Yeah that’s mainly it for me. I want to see Tyler’s Superman interacting with the other heroes. Not to replace or upstage Supergirl but because they’ve made an entertaining version of Superman and I think it’d be fun to see him with them.

I remember being annoyed with the musical episode not because it was a musical but because Barry’s stupid crack about Kara’s cousin made zero sense because he’d never even seen Clark before! (Incidentally, the heck you get off throwing shade Mr. Flashpoint?)

I think that the only reason that they did a musical episode was because both Melissa Benoist and Greg Gustin were in a previous musical series together, and I think they just wanted to tip their hats to that series. I don’t remember the name of that show though. Was it Glee? I do think that Melissa did a wonderful job singing. Is shade a flash villain? I’m not familiar with flash villains.

I would definitely like to see Superman meet the Atom. I remember last year when Ray Palmer said that Kara looked like his cousin. I enjoyed hearing the superman returns nod that Brandon Routh made in that crossover episode.

I just saw the song “Superfriend” that Barry and Kara had sung togeather. Yeah, you have a point Mattcomics. Barry hasn’t met Clark, so why did he make that comment about a superhero he’s never met? I do wish Kara would’ve said something like” hey, that’s my cousin ya know!” But for whatever reason they didn’t have her stick up for him. Still, I’m sure that when they bring back superman, it will be a cool episode to watch.

“throwing shade” is just an expression though there is an actual DC character called The Shade who is a Flash villain. ..and yes the show was Glee where both Grant and Melissa showed off their singing abilities.

I think the musical episode itself was actually fun it’s just that line in the Super-Friends song that bugs me because it’s totally needless and non-nonsensical.

Thank you for clarifying that up for me Mattcomics.
I was unfamiliar with that expression.
I absolutely agree with you on that song. The episode was entertaining, but if I could change one thing, it would be that song.
