So everyone's realized by now that the team composition is basically Community, right?

Rip is the Dean. He barges in and forces the team on crazy adventures for goals only he cares about. Heatwave is Chang. Although Pierce also fits really well.

Hawkgirl is Shirley. She's caring, kind, and the writers still have absolutely no idea what to do with her.

Vandal Savage doesn't care about the protagonists, just about defeating the dozens of other Vandal Savages that have traveled back in time to ensure they conquer Earth.

It's basically sitcom scriptwriting. It's all crazy misunderstandings, miscommunication, and cleaning up their own messes.

I can't believe Chang unexpectedly betrayed the group!

It also makes Rip's backstory make no sense. He didn't become a Time Master after his wife was killed. They left the Time Masters together and chose to live in the Vandal Savage Kills Everyone era.

They actually all died in the first episode, and the reason they're so ineffectual is that they can't influence the outside world anymore.

Reality itself is threatened when the Atom realizes that the plot makes no sense, leading the characters to a self-awareness of their fictional status that could unmake the world. B-plot: Hawkgirl has an existential crisis upon understanding that her actions have no motivation.

I would definitely watch a show that was just Vandal Savage killing time through the ages with various hobbies.

Vandal Savage was a good guy for twenty years in the 16th century, just to see what it was like. It was okay.

Jax is a naturally gifted athlete, as the show emphasizes. He's so good at athletics, because of his natural gifts, and his genetics, that he was born with. But he's not the smart one of the team, he's paired with a smart guy. Because his gift isn't intelligence. It's natural athletic ability. He's just a natural athlete. No idea why. Just good at athletics. Maybe he gets it from his dad. Just something about him. Natural athletic gift.

It's 1950, and Vandal Savage is trying to steal the top-secret recipe for the world's most beloved drink, Coca-Cola.

Rip, Ray, Sara, Snart, Rory, Kendra, Jax, and Stein enjoy glass bottle of classic Coca-Cola, the best-selling drink in the world for over a century. A single drop of condensation runs down the frosty glass.

The year is 1870. The team goes back in time for no good reason. Stein forgets to take off his plastic glasses. Ray wonders why this seems so much like a JLU episode.

This is the fillerest episode ever, and after all the time they spent at the end of the last episode talking up things were getting SERIOUS and it was time to STOP SAVAGE ONCE AND FOR ALL it makes me wonder if there were some bizarre behind-the-scenes production problems that necessitated it.

"The Time Masters have sent Chronos to kill us!" "Who's that?" "An unstoppable assassin who will stop at nothing to stop us." "Oh, okay." "Now the Time Masters have sent the Hunters to kill us!" "Who are they?" "Unstoppable assassins who will stop at nothing to stop us." "Oh, okay." "Now the Time Masters have sent the Pilgrim to kill us!" "Go gently caress yourself, Rip."
