DC TV: New Plot Synopses Released For SUPERGIRL, THE FLASH, ARROW, & LEGENDS OF TOMORROW
The CW has released intriguing new plot descriptions for the second week of new episodes (October 16 - October 19) for Supergirl, The Flash, Arrow, and DC's Legends of Tomorrow. Come take a look!
Following an exciting week of premieres, all of your DC TV favorites will begin to ramp up the action as new villains and challenges make themselves known.
First up, on Supergirl, Kara (Melissa Benoist) will face-off with Psi (Yael Grobglas), a psychic thief that immobilizes his foes by tapping into their worst fears, which doesn't seem like it's going to go well for our Girl of Steel. Then, on The Flash, Barry has to attend couples therapy while also trying to take down a dangerous new meta that can control technology. Then, we go back to the past on DC's Legends of Tomorrow where Nate and Ray find themselves in big trouble after they accidentally free a saber-toothed tiger. And finally, on Arrow, Oliver tries his best to be a father and Anatoly returns to Star City.
