It's a momentous occasion! The 100th episode of Supergirl is finally here! We remember more than 5 years ago seeing the first trailer for the pilot and to be here is such an incredible journey! We are kind of viewing tonight as a celebration! Thank you all for being with us these last five years, thank you for making our site such a wonderful place to share thoughts and opinions on The Girl of Steel and we are looking forward to the next (hopefully) 100 episodes! Now for the recap, here's what stood out to us.

1. The Music: Pay special attention to the music on your second viewing of the episode. We didn't catch it the first time we watched but if you listen for it you can tell the music was done live and Blake really brought out some great emotions!
2. Mxyzptlk: Mxy is back. His looks have changed but that is who he really is (Thomas Lennon). The old look was to get Kara to fall in love with him. In the end, Mxy was charged with a crime in the 5th dimensional court. He now has to use his powers for good and right all the people he wronged. He is visiting Kara as she is the last person he has to atone with. He gives her a chance to tell Lena she is Supergirl. The two begin to work backwards through time to discover the right moment to tell her.
3. Attempt 1: Kara travels back in time to season 4 when Mercy Graves attacks L Corp. Kara tells Lena her secret, goes and deals with the invasion and when back, Lena has left. She has flown to Metropolis to visit with Sam. The two share their shock over the news. The attempt is aborted because Lena wasn't in National City when the atmosphere was flooded with Kryptonite and Kara dies.
4. Attempt 2: Kara heads to when Supergirl asked Lena about Kryptonite. She reveals her secret and Lena doesn't take the news well. Then the Worldkillers begin their eclipse. Lena doesn't help defeat the Worldkillers and Mon-El and Winn remain and don't go to the future. Supergirl and Mon-El go to protect Reign's mother when Kara asks Mon-El's advice. Mon-El notes that he has a lot in common with Lena, they were both betrayed by their families. He notes that Kara deserves the compassion she offers everyone else. This attempt is aborted because Reign kills Lena and Mon-El.
5. Attempt 3: Kara tells Lena who she is right at the beginning of their friendship. The two's friendship is strengthened and they begin to work together. They are able to change the world together. Coville's cult grows bigger and bigger which affects Ben Lockwood's family. They believe that if they jump off a barn Supergirl will save them. This creates a new Agent Liberty who is desperate to unmask Supergirl. He kidnaps Lena and Coville forces Kara to reveal her identity to the world. Agent Liberty then goes after all those who are close to Kara and kills them all. Obviously this attempt is aborted.
6. Attempt 4: Kara and Lena are never friends. This is the darkest timeline. Unfortunately in this timeline, Lena has 5th dimensional energy dampeners. They can't escape. Lexo-bots patrol the city in a police state. Dreamer rescues Supergirl and takes Mxy and Supergirl to the tower. There, all the heroes gather; Mon-El, future Winn, Dreamer, Kelly, J'onn and Alex.It turns out Lena was captured and tortured by her mother. It made her go mad. Reign, Brainy and Hope robots are now Lena's enforcers. They attack the Tower. Winn takes Mxy to L Corp to find "The Hat's" Hat. J'onn takes on Reign and Supergirl goes to speak with Lena. She is now a Metallo and nearly kills Supergirl. Mxy is able to get to the hat in time and the timeline is restored.

In the final wrap up moments, Kara realizes through all these attempts that she needs to forgive herself and live with the consequences of her choices. Mxy is disappointed that he couldn't give Kara a better reality but she thanks him for her new perspective and he is released from his obligation. Mxy tells Kara that he is a better Imp now because he met Kara. Kara goes to Lena to share one last message. Lena can choose to forgive her and Kara will be there for her, or she can work with Lex and keep doing her plan, to which Kara will be there to stop her "just like any other villain". Lena's choices are now her own. We are left with a final scene with the original trio, Kara, Alex and J'onn. Kara flashes a smile kind of winking to the audience at this incredible achievement. El May Arah!

Every once in awhile, we get a truly wonderful opportunity to go a bit deeper into the world of Supergirl and bring that to our readers! Today, we had the chance to sit down with the Executive Producers of Supergirl, Jessica Queller and Robert Rovner, and talk about the monumental success of Supergirl, the goals of the one-hundredth episode and plans for the future! Check out our exclusive interview below:

Supergirl.tv: The two of you have been with the show since the beginning, right? Tell us a little about this journey.

Robert Rovner: Well yeah, it’s a real honor and a privilege to be able to write for the character of Supergirl and a show like this that really is able to speak to what's best in all of us and hopefully inspire and tell stories that are relevant to what's going on in our world.

Jessica Queller: It's a very special show. And we are well, it's been really amazing. Robert and I are on this journey together.

Supergirl.tv: How did you approach writing the 100th episode? Were there any key themes you wanted to hit?

Robert Rovner: Well, you know, I think we knew very early on when we were creating the theme central to this season that the friendship between Kara and Lena would be explored and we really, I think, knew from an early point this season, that we wanted to do something special for the hundredth and it would be an opportunity for us to kind of re-examine that friendship; if Kara under the guise of Kara had been able to tell her true identity at different points in time. So from there, we kind of went back to look at several of our favorite moments from their friendship. And to go back to those moments which allowed us to bring back some of our great cast members who had been with the show but have since left.

Supergirl.tv: Actually speaking of past cast members, you know, you've had some incredible cast and achievements like Jon Cryer as Lex Luthor, which is essentially character defining. What made you guys think to seek out Thomas Lennon for Mxyzptlk?

Jessica Queller: Well, we just are huge fans of his in general and it came up In the room, and it was like, my gosh, he would be our dream Mxy if he happened to be available. And then he was and it was just glorious. And just see, he is magic himself. And the script was so beautifully written and funny and delightful. And then he just brought it to another level.

Robert Rovner: And I think our idea to recast the role at all, you know, really was born out of wanting to reframe who this character was. You know, when he had been on the show earlier and [give him a chance to] redeem himself. He had kind of a much lighter presence, that could be an agent of our look back in time, as opposed to the kind of more imposing rogue that he was when he tried to force Kara to marry him.

Supergirl.tv: What are the challenges with making a show that has 100 episodes of history behind it versus say when you are developing a new show?

Robert Rovner: I think we always look back to inform what we're doing. But we're really always looking forward as writers and storytellers. It can be daunting, I think, to kind of, say, come up with new stories now. But the way we create the show and write the show, it's really our stories that kind of are organic to the character journeys that we're telling in the stories that we're trying to tell that reflect on what's going on in society. And so then, it really is surprisingly easy to kind of generate new story ideas.

Jessica Queller: Yeah, we just always keep looking forward and we keep looking at what's going on in the world around us. We, as writers, want to explore where our characters are currently in their development and what situations we would be interested in putting them in.

Supergirl.tv: There's a rich back story too to pull from.

Robert Rovner: I know that's what's wonderful about writing for a show like this because we have the cannon, which can inform so much and inspire us. And so there's always that kind of wealth to draw from. So whenever we do have an idea, we can always look back and see if there's something from our history or the show's history that informs that.

Supergirl.tv: The pairing of Supergirl and Batwoman airing on the same night and the friendship Kara and Kate seemed to have developed has a lot of us wondering if there are mini-crossovers in the works for those two?

Robert Rovner: There isn't one planned at this time, but we love Batwoman and Supergirl and it was lovely that Kara and Kate’s relationship was able to advance their friendship during the crossover. She's our sister in crime fighting. So we would love to be able to put them on the screen together.

Supergirl.tv: Actually just following up briefly on that, in a recent episode of Batwoman, Batwoman came out as a lesbian and Kara Danvers wrote the story. Are you guys consulted on those decisions?

Jessica Queller: We saw the image and approved it. We were excited about it.

Supergirl.tv: Since Crisis is over and Argo is restored, will Alura or Eliza make a return this season?

Robert Rovner: Eliza is coming back and we're very excited about that. Alura, we don't have further plans for her this season but we love that character. If we have an opportunity and the story takes us there, we would love to bring her back

Supergirl.tv: Are there any inside things you can tease about the 100th episode?

Robert Rovner: One of the things we're very proud of and that makes it special, we were able to do a live score for this episode. Blake Neely, our composer always makes magic but we really worked to make this score happen as a love letter to the fans, both with the specialness of the storytelling that we were trying to achieve, but also to add that layer to it was also very exciting.

Jessica Queller: All the writers went and it was such a special time.

We want to thank Jessica and Robert for their time! We hope you all enjoyed this look into Supergirl's 100th and the future! We'll also share with you images from the 100th episode party below:
