Barry Allen lived a normal life as a perpetually tardy C.S.I. in the Central City Police Department. Barry's life changed forever when the S.T.A.R. Labs Particle Accelerator exploded, creating a dark-matter lightning storm that struck Barry, bestowing him with super-speed and making him the fastest man alive – The Flash. After a thrilling cliffhanger last season which saw the new Mirror Master victorious and still-at-large in Central City, The Flash must regroup in order to stop her and find a way to make contact with his missing wife, Iris West-Allen. With help from the rest of Team Flash, which includes superheroes Caitlin Snow, Cisco Ramon, and Nash Wells, as well as the Flash's adoptive father Joe West, Meta-Attorney Cecile Horton, tough cub reporter Allegra Garcia and brilliant tech-nerd Chester P. Runk, Flash will ultimately defeat Mirror Master. But in doing so, he'll also unleash an even more powerful and devastating threat on Central City: one that threatens to tear his team and his marriage apart. (Warner Bros. Home Entertainment)

The Flash (2014)
I'll just wait for Gotham and Pennyworth to be over and then I will see. But the very fact that an Amazon series was originally in the pipeline and Arrow ended up getting this spin-off is quite perilous... So far, The Flash has been running for seven years and has revived memories of its 1990s predecessor, which is a good idea. Crossovers are interesting in their own right, that's not a problem. Otherwise, I really don't have the nerve for it.

Invasion! (2016) (S03E08)
Invasion! continues and Barry introduces everyone to his new friend Kara. Unfortunately, some of the supporting characters from the Arrowverse are annoying, typically Cisco Ramon... I really don't need that in Supergirl.

Duet (2017) (S03E17)
An excellent episode, a nice retro, and overall a good idea. For seasoned viewers, the musical episode is not a problem; anyone who remembers Xena or Buffy knows that musical episodes are pure gold. And although I'm not a fan of Barry and Iris, their song is truly magical. Kara's version of the famous "Moon River" was just as big a surprise, but what really put a smile on my face was the funny tap dance number with great lyrics on the theme of super friends.

Elseworlds, Part 1 (2018) (S05E09)
Considering that the whole Elseworlds event was mainly to introduce Batwoman, I don't have a problem with it. Yet one has to realize that the CW version of DC stories is simply the teen light or young adult version. You might therefore be surprised how different the book "Elseworlds" can be...

Armageddon, Part 3 (2021) (S08E03)
The first three episodes of Armageddon were almost unbearable. The guest appearances of Ray Palmer from Legends of Tomorrow and Jefferson Pierce from Black Lightning had no energy. Fortunately, it all improved with the transition to the year 2031.

Armageddon, Part 4 (2021) (S08E04)
The Armageddon crossover began airing on November 16, 2021, a week after Supergirl concluded its sixth and final season on November 9, 2021, and Batwoman was then halfway through its final third season. It was very emotional to see Alex again and hear her talk about her marriage with Kelly (their wedding was the culmination of Supergirl). It was equally great to experience Ryan talking about her plans to adopt with Sophie (even though their relationship hadn't been confirmed in the main series at that time). At the same time, these were somewhat spoilers because this part of the event takes place in an alternate future in the year 2031. Nevertheless, it was a beautiful reunion with beloved characters against the backdrop of the classic battle between Flash and Reverse-Flash.
