Fans of the acclaimed Buffy The Vampire Slayer episode "Once More With Feeling" should be happy to hear that The CW will follow suit with a musical Supergirl/The Flash team up, which will allow Melissa Benoist and Grant Gustin to flex their Glee vocal muscles again.

Greg Berlatni confirmed as much to the Television Critics Association earlier today, stating that the double-episode would air during the second half of the 2016-17 TV season. Apparently the cast will sing mostly preexisting tunes, but they are toying with the idea of one original song per episode.

This might be very entertaining, and then again it might... not. What do you guys make of the idea?

In related news, after doing a great job on his season 2 episode of The Flash, Kevin Smith will be back to direct another, and an installment of Supergirl while he's at it.

.@ThatKevinSmith will be directing an episode of #Supergirl and another episode of #TheFlash! #TCA16

@TheFox - I agree with you

OMG I thought this was a joke...They really want us to hate the the CW DC stuff don't they?

GuardianAngel - 8/11/2016, 3:32 PM

@RebelCommander - I stopped watching the CW shows because of how poorly written they are, but I'll definitely tune in for this. It's about time they drop the facade of pretending they're smart shows and embrace some of the sillier aspects of comics head on.

Uh...

Maybe they could use the Music Meister from Batman: Brave & the Bold?

God damn it....this is all Joss Whedon's fault.

@McGee - I was just going to post something similar. But hey that episode was nominated for an Emmy Award.
