The Review at the End of the Universe
Crisis on Infinite Earths delivers a double feature for its conclusion starting with the Paragons trying to figure out a way to restore all that has been lost. Annoyingly, The CW opted to air the finale of this landmark crossover event on the same night which causes significant headaches for this reviewer. I’ve decided to…
The CW’s mega crossover event Crisis on Infinite Earths has aired its 2019 episodes so Kneel Before Pod makes a triumphant return to discuss it in the usual detail. The discussion covers the ambition of the event, cameos, hopes for future cameos, theories for January and the strength of Shadow Demons. Craig can be found…
Crisis on Infinite Earths wraps up for 2019 with some difficult choices and a race against time to save what’s left of the multiverse. As someone who writes reviews of most of the shows that make up this ever growing shared multiverse I should be used to tall orders in terms of what my viewing…

“Nip/Stuck” DC’s Legends of Tomorrow picks up the pieces following the team learning about Neron possessing Ray and try to figure out their next move. One of the major strengths of this show is the constant focus on characters and the unflinching commitment to have the story flow from them. This isn’t always true but…
“Egg MacGuffin” DC’s Legends of Tomorrow deals with the Ray possession plot, continues to develop the Nate/Zari relationship and gives Mick’s role as a writer attention. “Egg MacGuffin” is one of those episodes where it’s hard to put a pin in what it’s actually about because the focus is spread pretty evenly between all of…
“The Eggplant, the Witch and the Wardrobe” DC’s Legends of Tomorrow splits the team into groups to tackle separate yet connected plots that revolve around Neron. Before I analyse the groups linked to Neron I’ll briefly discuss the one that isn’t. Zari, Mona, Mick and Charlie hang around the ship as Zari tries to figure…
“Séance And Sensibility” Love -or at least lust- is in the ventilation system on a romantically charged DC’s Legends of Tomorrow where many of the characters confront feelings they have been denying themselves.
