I have a feeling that some viewers may get a little irritated when they watch this episode on Monday. From what I can tell, this episode is going to be a regular episode of Supergirl with guest star appearances from Barry and Cisco to set up the crossover. I think all of the clips seen in the preview above are going to be in the other three shows. I could be wrong but that seems to be the case. I am perfectly okay with that; Supergirl is the only one of the Berlanti-verse shows that I am still enjoying. I don’t need the other characters messing it up. But some people may feel like they got swindled. Maybe the crossover plays a bigger part but it doesn’t seem like it.

I am impressed that last week’s cliffhanger is already being followed up on. I figured Project Medusa would be the big threat in the season finale but, judging by the title and synopsis, it is immediately coming into play. The pacing of this season is fantastic. I am also excited to see Lena back because I love her.

I also appreciate that it’s a Thanksgiving episode. That is an under appreciated holiday in television and movies.

“Medusa” is directed by Stefan Pleszczynski and written by Jessica Queller and Derek Simon. The episode airs Monday November 28 at 8:00 p.m. Eastern time on the CW.
