The Review at the End of the Universe
“Duet” The Flash crosses over with Supergirl when Barry and Kara are put in a shared coma fantasy where life is an old timey musical. I’ll preface this by saying that this episode will definitely be a “mileage may vary” sort of episode as your enjoyment will largely depend on whether or not you like musicals….
“Into the Speed Force” The Flash sends Barry into the Speed Force in an attempt to rescue Wally from the prison that he was tricked into by Savitar.

“Escape From Earth-2” The Flash concludes the visit to Earth-2 with Wells and Cisco mounting a rescue of the captured Barry before their window of opportunity to return to Earth-1 runs out. This episode had a lot to live up to after the stellar outing last week. Many shows have a problem concluding a two…
