SPOILERS/NSFW - DC on SCREEN #220 - Lucifer 2x03 - Sin-Eater | Recap & Review
Someone’s running around punishing people and posting video of it online! Lucifer obviously wants to take the person who’s imitating him out of the game. Their investigation takes them to a social media upstart, Wobble where Leila Simms, played by Robin Givens helps them figure out who could be killing people… until it looks like it’s her. But of course it’s not. It’s Ray, the head of human resources who wears a Def Leppard shirt. Because we saw him for a couple of minutes. And we were supposed to be distracted by Robin Givens.
In other news, Chloe and Dan decide to get divorced (I thought they already were), Amenadiel hides his worsening condition from Maze, and comes for a visit to find Charlotte instead of Lucifer, while Lucifer decides to punish their mother by making her stay Charlotte. No one knows that she has super powers, of course.

Arrow 5x01 - Legacy | Recap & Review Oct 09, 2016

Show notes

SPOILERS/NSFW - DC on SCREEN #216 - Arrow 5x01 - Legacy | Recap & Review - Ollie is Mayor, but he’s not doing a very good job of it. Thea is covering for him a lot, and finding herself flourishing in the role. Felicity is the only person still helping with nightly crime fighting activities, but is hard pressed to convince Ollie that the old team isn’t coming back, that he should move on and train new people—such as all the new vigilantes running around town having been inspired by the Green Arrow.
Ollie’s kidnapped at the unveiling of Laurel’s Black Canary statue. Tobias Church really wants to take Green Arrow down. Lance pulls himself out of the bottle to pull some strings and get a police task force in hand to help take Church down.
In flashbacks, Russians tell Oliver an old proverb that lines up with what he needs to remember in the present while setting up the bratva story.
Oh, and Felicity is dating Detective Billy Malone.

The Flash 3x01 – Flashpoint | Recap & Review Oct 09, 2016

Show notes

SPOILER/NSFW - DC on SCREEN # 215 - The Flash 3x01 – Flashpoint | Recap & Review - Since saving his mother from Eobard Thawne, Barry has imprisoned Thawne in an ill-defined speed dampening chamber made of glass and metal bars, and has spent the last three months living with his parents. There’s a new Flash in town, Kid Flash (Wally), and he’s working with Iris to take down crime in Central City—which just so happens to be primarily this cat named Edward Clariss, The Rival.
Joe’s an alcoholic, Cisco is a billionaire, Caitlin is a children’s eye doctor, Julio Mendes is police Captain, and Barry is losing his memories of the original timeline every time he uses his speed.
With Wally on the brink of death from a battle with the Rival, Barry decides he has to let Thawne kill his mother. Returning to his own time, however, Barry finds that things are not how he left them.

Show notes

SPOILER/NSFW - DC on SCREEN #214 - Lucifer 2x02 – Liar, Liar, Slutty Dress on Fire | Recap & Review - Lucifer’s mother, after popping up in various fresh corpses all over town, finally possesses a woman named Charlotte, who doesn’t get immediately re-killed, and finds Lucifer. Lucifer is of course untrusting of his mother, believing she most likely killed people left and right on her way to find him.
Lucifer leaves Maze to watch Charlotte while he and Chloe investigate the murders she was involved in/the victim of. They also argue about how to raise Trixie.
Elsewhere, Amenadiel and Linda get into a kerfuffle over his posing as a therapist last season, but ultimately leaves things as friends. Which is nice since it appears he’s dying.

Over at Wayne Manor, the Bruce doppleganger finds that he can’t feel pain (but can feel hunger apparently), and begins to act like Bruce to get close to Selina.

Gotham 3x02 - Mad City: Burn the Witch | Recap & Review Oct 02, 2016

Show notes

SPOILERS/NSFW - DC on SCREEN #211 - Gotham 3x02 - Mad City: Burn the Witch | Recap & Review
Gordon and Vale track down Fish Mooney… who has in turn kidnapped Bullock and forced him to tell her the location of Professor Hugo Strange in hopes that he can save her from death… And raise her an army of monsters... Penguin is causing a hub-bub, getting angry mobs together to do what he claims the police can’t – kill Fish and the Indian Hill monsters. At the end of the day, the police, penguin, and penguin’s mob show up where the government and police are holding Strange to get Fish once and for all. Jim sneaks in, makes a deal with Fish to save Bullock, and delivers her into the hands of Penguin. Fish talks her way out of death by Oswald, though.
Somewhere in there, we have the new Ivy who murders a nice guy who didn’t water some plants.
Also happening this episode, Bruce has a meeting with a ghoulish representative of the Court of Owls named… Catherine? Oh… okay. But she’s still scary enough to make Bruce agree to stop investigating them, Indian Hill, his parents’ murders… pretty much he has to promise to butt out and be a freaking kid. Except when he gets back home, doppleganger shows up.
In the end, Jim and Valerie finally break all of the two-episode sexual tension and get down while Lee Thompkins gets off a train in the 1940s… or present day Gotham. I think that’s what we were supposed to see.
