Its the event we've been waiting for since the Invasion crossover! The musical crossover! Supergirl's synopsis includes the big time debut of Teri Hatcher's and Kevin Sorbo's characters as well as some trouble that Winn is going to get into with the law! Further more, we learn how team Supergirl is going to get team Flash involved and it sounds like both teams are going to be in trouble! Read them below:
Supergirl's Episode 216 "Star-Crossed":
TERI HATCHER (“DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES,” “LOIS & CLARK: THE NEW ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN”) AND KEVIN SORBO (“HERCULES”) GUEST STAR; DARREN CRISS (“GLEE”) MAKES HIS DEBUT AS THE MUSIC MEISTER – A new villain (guest star Teri Hatcher) comes to National City, putting Supergirl (Melissa Benoist) on high alert. Meanwhile, Winn’s (Jeremy Jordan) girlfriend, Lyra (guest star Tamzin Merchant), gets Winn in trouble with the law. Maggie (guest star Floriana Lima) attempts to help Winn but old loyalties get in the way. The Music Meister (Darren Criss) attacks Supergirl. John Medlen directed the episode written by Katie Rose Rogers & Jess Kardos (#216). Original airdate 3/20/2017.
Flash's Episode 317 "Duet":
DARREN CRISS (“GLEE”) GUEST STARS AS THE MUSIC MEISTER IN THE FLASH AND SUPERGIRL MUSICAL CROSSOVER – Barry (Grant Gustin) and team are surprised when Mon- El (guest star Chris Wood) and Hank Henshaw (guest star David Harewood) arrive on their Earth carrying a comatose Supergirl (guest star Melissa Benoist) who was whammied by the Music Meister (guest star Darren Criss). Unable to wake her up, they turn to Team Flash to save her. However, the Music Meister surprises The Flash and puts him in a similar coma, one that Team Flash can’t cure. Kara and Barry wake up without their powers in an alternate reality where life is like a musical and the only way to escape is by following the script, complete with singing and dancing, to the end. Dermott Downs directed the episode with story by Greg Berlanti & Andrew Kreisberg and teleplay by Aaron Helbing & Todd Helbing (#317). Original airdate 3/21/2017.

Performing with Melissa is Sarah Hyland of Modern Family and who hosted a kids version of my guilty pleasure show Lip Sync Battle called Lip Sync Battle Shorties. But Miss Kelly, there is a little something extra...namely a criticism by a fictional character Miranda Sings. AND SPOILER ALERT...she takes Melissa's time on Glee to task...

Quote:OUCH! But you know now that I think about it, there may be a hint of truth. But note how Mel B handles this. Supergirl on the other hand would've zapped her into the next orbit!
But now, as I mentioned LSB...come on SpikeTV, get Chyler and Melissa to go on there and just go nuts! Melissa says she's very competitive and the two love being silly; so this makes perfect sense.
You know I am more and more looking forward to this mini-crossover.
YESS!! These three too...and she sings with Laura! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkcGR0T4cGo, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vWzSysYbRY, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sinws6tClhY
This video to me shows her raw talent better than anything else, no lip syncing etc...just live and raw. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNKpuVxVxng
no problem :)
I just went through your links 3Jekams, thank you sooooo much. I have never seen Melissa Benoist sing so when I just saw your links I decided to look at them. WOW!!!! she is fantastic and so is her voice - that lady is talented. You made me want to see this crossover even more. Thank you for posting.
I kind of doubt if any original 40s music (including instrumentals) will be used. More likely it will be new versions or newly-written songs with a hint of old-time flavor.
By the way, some of those 40s Big Band pop singers did try their hand at the newly-emerged rock 'n' roll and R&B in the 50s, often with dubious (if not downright embarrassing ) results. For instance, Jo Stafford recorded Ray Charles' "I Got A Woman" (changing the title to "I Got A Sweetie"). It was a bit like watching your grandmother trying to Jitterbug!
