In 2016? We Have to Save Our Friends

I thought the show was bad - but when more of the Arrow/Flash characters entered, my goodness the bad scale goes off the charts.

Posing Assassin Woman set this episode up with a typical first part of a sentence as a question? Second part as a statement.

Now we get blonde ponytail woman who never speaks - she banters. Every line she utters is with sloppy talk (sounds like rocks in her mouth) fast patter speech. Things like this: "We ave tado this, lesgo."

They're facing an unknown enemy that may threaten their lives. What do they do? Sideline their most powerful member. Sure, that makes sense.

Speaking of threatening their very lives: the last episode ends with Posing Assassin Girl saying they have to go to 2016 to save their friends, and then this episode begins with them in the middle of some activity with their friends.

What happened? What came in between these two things? I guess it was shown on other shows...

The modern term to describe this is cringy. Every line, every character interaction, everything about this is cringy. It's like bad cosplay.

Oh yeah, there's Stein's daughter. They picked an actress who is a weird mouth mover. Her mouth movements don't match her words. Her mouth goes off in sideways directions as she delivers her lines always with an ironic undertone.

Each actor on this show only has one or two ways to deliver a line. It's ends up looking and sounding weird...cringy.
