I finished watching Crisis on Earth X, which has all 4 parts in this box set, probably because the rest of the season makes little sense without them. I hate hate hate what they did to Martin, that was unnecessary and part of a bad pattern.

Leo is great, and it was probably fun to be flirty like that.

Legends tonal range is as ever pretty broad. The episode they're most grieving Martin is the episode we meet Beebo and have to deal with Beebo Day miracles. And then they turn around and do a Constantine in an asylum episode with bonus near lobotomy, but try to end it funny? And it basically works.

I did like Sara asking "Are we really this damaged"
because it is John and the answer is more yes than Legends is yet prepared to imagine.

I still don't like the way mental health care in these stories is depicted as a threat or a joke. Actually helpful is never one of the options. And yet people do need the help.

It's really dark watching Nora choose like that.

Strong story though.


I shall watch more later but I don't want to whoosh through them all at once.
