Arrow: Prior to the events of Crisis On Infinite Earths, the preceding two episodes saw a nice return of Quentin Lance in a Groundhog Day inspired episode while the gang all found themselves in Lian Yu, reuniting with some old friends and enemies and Roy losing an arm. While the character still is my least favourite in this final season, I will admit grudgingly that Mia has been less annoying recently but I'm still not sure that is enough to make me want to watch that upcoming Canaries spin-off beyond the pilot episode.
Batwoman: This show is still largely in the meh category but at least they decided to kill off a main character to highlight that Alice actually poses a threat and that she's not all talk. The character being Catherine and I wish I cared but given how poorly developed she was, it's a bit eh really. I do feel bad for Mary, who continues to be a delight but between boring Sophie/Tyler melodrama, fun characters like Julia being one-offs and Luke still having little in the way of character development, this show has quite a way to go. It's almost too telling that it's best episode was the one that eschewed the majority of it's cast and had several other characters from other shows in it.
Pose: Oh, I really loved this show. No, really I did. The second half of this season had so many beautiful character moments - the girls trip, Angel and Papi getting engaged, everyone rallying around Blanca, Pray Tell and Ricky, some character growth from Damon as well as Elektra being on fine form and another Candy appearance, post death. I'm really glad this wonderful series has gotten a third season as I want to see more from each of these characters and what other bits of 90s nostalgia the show can come up with too.
Supergirl: Prior to the events of the big crossover, this show is still on the meh side of things. It's nice that the Leviathan has finally picked up, but so far, it's not usually compelling as we went from Rama Khan to Gamemnae a little too quickly while Kara's passiveness towards Lena's heel turn was somewhat frustrating. The redemption plot with J'onn's brother was also done a bit quickly as well but I'm hoping that we see him again later in the season. Other than that, I'm hoping post-crossover the show steps up a big gear.
The Flash: Let's be honest - Bloodwork without a doubt is the dullest villain this show has ever done and if he never returns to the series, it would be too soon but we're likely to see more of him later in the season. The Negative Flash stuff just looked Barry had been chewing liquorice but at least we got a good team up with Iris and Cisco and there was an entertaining James Bond spoof episode prior to the mid season finale two parter, but other than this season has been plodding along too much for it's own good.
