Any former Glee fans going to watch the Supergirl/Flash musical ep?


I'm not going to bother posting this on the Glee board considering the amount of irrational hatred that Melissa still receives from those petty, catty c u next Tuesdays.

As the subject heading says, any former Glee fans who may not have kept up with Supergirl who are planning on watching the upcoming musical crossover with The Flash?

Never watched the Flash, only seen a few early Supergirl episodes, but as a Gleek, Hell Yeah, I will.

I'm assuming that The Music Meister is going to be the main villain. It'll be awesome if they can get Neil Patrick Harris to play the live action version of the character.

Considering the amount of musical talent in the TVDCU, I'm surprised it's taken them this long to do one.

I watch both shows. Definitely will be watching yep. I remember the glee forums hate for Melissa. Ticked me off. :( Still does..

I seriously don't get why she still receives so much irrational hatred from "gleeks". It's sort of ironic since, arguably, she's done the best out of all the former cast.

She's received near universal acclaim for her role on Supergirl and apparently the show's ratings have improved since the move to The CW.

Rumor has it that Mister Mxyzptlk is going to be the villain for the crossover ep. It fits since he has reality warping abilities and could cause the characters to spontaneously break into song. It's also being strongly hinted that Neil Patrick Harris is going to play him.

I did the complete opposite... I stopped watching Glee (at Season 3). Then discovered and absolutely LOVED Supergirl... And now that Supergirl is on its winter hiatus, I went back and started watching Glee Season 4 (coz I read she was on Glee) and absolutely loved her character! I love her even more now that I know she can sing...

So I am beyond excited for the musical episode!!! And it's either going to be absolutely amazing or an absolutely amazing tragedy ;)... But it worked for Xena Warrior Princess, I have high hopes. I'll still be a dedicated Supergirl fan... Coz it's the only lead female superhero show out there right now.

Mulder, it's me...

The CW does have a lot of musical talent on their DC shows in addition to Grant and Melissa; Jesse L. Martin, Carlos Valdes and John Barrowman to name just a few.

I've also heard Emily Bett Rickards sing and she has a pretty good voice too. I know that Roy Harper is in hiding but Colton Haynes has a successful recording career as a country artist as well. I've also seen a couple videos of Ciara Renee (Hawkgirl) singing and she's really good too.

Caity Lotz is also a trained dancer so if Sara Lance shows up, it might give her a chance to show off her moves. I have pretty high hopes for the episode; especially if the rumor about NPH playing Mr. Mxyzptlk is true.

Edit: Can't believe I forgot Victor Garber.

Well K. One thing your going to have to realize with this musical crossover... They have some top end musical talent on both shows. Not just Glee Alum Jeremy Jordan (Wyn) & Jesse L Martin are proven musical powerhouses. I'd say your going to be in for a treat.

I mentioned Jesse L. Martin. I also didn't realize that Jeremy Jordan was a singer as well.

Carlos Valdes has a band that he's the singer for and John Barrowman comes from a theatre background, including musicals. I saw him speak last summer an apparently he's campaigning pretty aggressively to appear on the musical episode.

Again, Ciara Renee is a singer, EBR has a solid voice as well and Colton Haynes also has a successful career as a country singer, I'm pretty sure that's why he quit Arrow.

And of course, we can't forget Victor Garber.
