geebsTV commentary:
Supergirl/Arrow- There are some fun things in this, but plenty of holes. Its nice to see characters you don't normally see interact interacting, cracking wise and kicking ass. But like I said, there are some holes. For one, Wells being all, "unlike our Earth, on Earth X the Nazis won!" Which, that isn't his Earth, he's from Earth-2. Then when they express surprise at the baddies being an alt-Ollie and alt-Kara, Wells is all, "there are 53 Karas!" But there aren't 53 Karas, because as far as they know, there's no Kara in the standard Arrow/Flash/LoT world.
Which brings us to the next hole- so we find out the bad guys whole plan was to grab Kara and get her heart because "Overgirl" (which is supposedly Earth-X Kara's name, but as far as I know they don't say it) is dying after absorbing too much solar radiation. And they're all, "We came upon the perfect earth!" Only, no they didn't, because there is no Kara on that Earth, it was just random dumb luck that Kara happened to be there for Barry and Iris' wedding.
That also implies there AREN'T 53 Karas, because it was special that they found an Earth with another Kara on it. But I digress, that seems far from a perfect situation, because she was at a wedding full of superheroes. So not only did they randomly stumble onto a Kara on an Earth she doesn't normally exist on, they tried to attack her at an ill-advised time. Also, where did Ollie get Kryptonite? And where did the Earth-X folks get a Metallo? Presumably since Kara is one of a kind there, why would they have a kryptonite powered robot?
But I'm being nit-picky. It was nice to see Sara and Alex finally meet. And I will say I did not see alt-Prometheus being Tommy Merlyn. Heh, and Felicity being soured on marriage after getting paralyzed and her and Ollie's relationship imploding after that seems understandable, and Nazis attacking Barry and Iris' wedding ins't convincing her marriage could be good.
Also, Ollie must be feeling bad. First Felicity rejects his proposal, then when they find out Earth-X Ollie and Kara a thing, Kara is all, "Ew, gross!"
NCIS: LA- Hey, aren't they still a national security threat? So Callen and Joelle fake her death to protect her family while she goes after the Syndicate. But they act like she's doing it solo. Given the Syndicate had been using the rogue CIA group they went to war with, shouldn't NCIS want to go after them too?
