Oh my God. Best fucking episode of season 3. Fight me on this, I don't care. A vintage musical inside a gangster film inside an episode of a superhero show? This was better than I could've imagined. The music and the scenery were wonderful, the atmosphere was perfect, and I'm amazed by how many musically talented actors there are on the CW/DC shows.
There were so many things I loved about this that I could write an essay about them, but I'm just going to list my top 5:
Melissa Benoist in that dress and with that hair. 11/10. She looked absolutely stunning.
"My sister says I put Kara in karaoke." What the shit? That's the best pun ever!
Stein and Joe as a couple of gay gangster dads. It doesn't get better than this.
"I'm your super friend" is my new favorite song. It was so cute and funny, and it just melted my heart. I love Barry and Kara's relationship so much, I still firmly believe that it's the best thing to have come out of the Arrowverse.
Barry proposed to Iris (again) and somehow it was even more touching than the first time. Such a beautiful scene.
And now, my top 5 least favorite things:
Mon-El talking
Mon-El breathing
Mon-El being there
Alex Danvers NOT being there (seriously, she would never agree to stay behind while Trashcan and J'onn took Kara to a parallel Earth. She just wouldn't let her sister out of her sight and it's bullshit that she didn't appear in this episode.)
Kara taking Mon-El back literally less than 24 hours after breaking up with him. Just. Let. Her. Live. I fucking hate this relationship so much. It makes me uncomfortable and sick to my stomach.
But yeah, still an awesome episode. I couldn't stop grinning like an idiot the whole time.
