The Gifted: got your siX

This week, The Gifted’s beginning flashback is four years ago in Phoenix. John is working with Pulse, trying to raise funds for relief from the big 7/15 disaster that, among other things, cost Agent Turner his daughter.

Supergirl: Damage

Supergirl’s “Damage” episode starts off with a slightly new voiceover. After they get through that, the Girl of Steel and her sister do a nice job of taking care of an attempted escape from a prison transport bus.

Inhumans: Havoc In The Hidden Land

The Inhumans are almost done with their first, and most likely only, season. The penultimate episode is “Havoc in the Hidden Land,” although a fair amount of the havoc happens in Hawaii, not Attilan. At least they resolve one of the things that’s been bothering me since the first episode.

Flash: Elongated Journey Into Night

The writers on the various CW shows have been doing a good job of going through DC Comics archives to find random and often obscure characters to bring to live action, often for the first time. This week, they use one that actually did start off as a supporting character for the Flash before going on to join the Justice League.

The Gifted: Boxed In

The Gifted has established itself as having an opening flashback from years ago before the main story. This time, they show us some background for Agent Turner and his wife. We already knew about their loss, but this drives it home in a vivid and ugly manner. I don’t like Turner, I find his racism…
