I feel bad for them for real, but I know they'll all be alright...

Holy crap.......

That new promo is scaring me. And poor Alex, her "I’m sorry Kara" was so sad. I need this crossover to come soon. But earth-X reverse flash is going to give me nightmares it seems.

interview with Melissa about the filming the crossover

Thank you Melissa for all your hard work, you are a true Supergirl.

I am going to especially enjoy watching her in this crossover in appreciation of what she does for our entertainment. Will be cool to watch her act against herself.

That is pretty much how I have watched each episode. Haven't really analyzed the story telling all that much, just enjoying the choices the writers are making, and being totally entertained by the absolute phenomenal acting of these actors. So yeah, that will definitely be enjoyable to watch.

Just updated the original post with the latest trailer theCW released about 30 minutes ago. More new footage... I.e...Supergirl falling to the earth.

Still one of my favorite songs to belt out when driving. I actually heard it on the 80's on 8 Sirius radio a few week's back. oh that curly blonde!

I used to have that song memorized when I was a kid (still know quite a bit of it by heart) and I always pretended that I could fly like him during the opening sequence of each episode . Loved that show!

Looking forward to seeing evil Overgirl and Supergirl go at it.

There is a rumor that it is coming back on ABC, but with a female lead this time.

Yes Overgirl and Earth X Green Arrow have a thing, but I think what Melissa is talking about is that she is playing a Doomsday weapon in Overgirl....

“I did play two characters. I did wear a very different outfit. There’s still a cape and my face is covered and she’s not so nice,” she teased. “It was pretty challenging. I thought it was going to be — I’ve done here and there, I’ve had moments like that on this show with Bizarro and when Martian Manhunter takes over Kara’s body, but this was entirely different. This was not even Red Kryptonite-isque. This was way worse.”

My guess its this:

Some people have been saying that over girl/ evil arrow might be a thing.

WOW way worse than Red Kryptonite infected Kara! Sounds like Overgirl is going to be one cold heartless b@&$h.

Worse than Red Kryptonite huh? Can't wait to see it.

Questions:

Does the cross-over start next Monday during Supergirl's regular time slot?

Yes, and Arrow will be moving to the slot after Supergirl and will not air during its regular time.

If so, does that mean that the rest of Supergirl's cast will be in the episode during that portion of the cross-over or is next week's episode of Supergirl not part of the cross-over? How does it work exactly?

Likely we won’t see anybody but Kara and Alex. If we do see anyone else it will be very minimal in the first minutes before Kara and Alex leave for Earth-1 and the wedding. We have seen pictures of Earth-X Winn so Jeremy is in somewhere just not as the Winn we know. Stephen Amell has described the crossovers as a miniseries so I’m hoping there will be one continuous story not a crossover episode of each show like last year.

OK folks, "Believe it or not" there will be a guest star on the upcoming crossover. He plays the pastor at Barry and Iris' wedding...and note the quotes as it's none other than WILLIAM KATT from The Greatest American Hero. The actor himself on his Facebook page confirmed this.

For those who don't know, before the Arrowverse, there was a bit of a campy feel to superheroes especially after Lynda Carter's Wonder Woman. And The Greatest American Hero (1981-1983 on ABC) was no exception. Katt played teacher Ralph Hinkley, who one day gets from aliens a supersuit...but proceeds to lose the instruction manual to it!

While the show lasted only two seasons, its theme song was a hit. "Believe It or Not" was composed by Mike Post who made many other theme songs like The Rockford Files and the lyrics were by Stephen Geyer. It was sung by Joey Scarbury. The song went to number 2 on the pop charts in 1981
