The Flash & Supergirl get MUSICAL


After an all to wrong musical episode of Agent Carter, another comic book series has gone there, The Flash with a little help from former Glee star who has transformed into Supergirl!

The cast from Supergirl really is a little musical and with a guest appearance from fellow Glee star Darren Criss. Melissa Benoist AKA Supergirl played Marley in Glee in Seasons 4 & 5 and has also done a few musicals live on stage in her time.

Jeremy Jordan (also from Supergirl) was in the less than successful series Smash and multiple leading roles on Broadway so he can sing!

So the pairing of Barry Allen and Supergirl for another crossover was an interesting installment of the two shows. The Flash is easily one of The CW's most successful shows right now, the musical episode DUET scored 2.71 million live viewers and with numbers like that with 7 day viewing numbers it's likely the episode will reach 5 million viewers, plus all the torrent and international viewers.

The episode has also seen an EP released bringing The CW more income from the series.

Currently in the Australian iTunes store the track "Runnin' Home to You" by Barry Allen AKA Grant Gustin is sitting @ #51.



Grant Gustin had a small role in Glee and also was cast in West Side Story on Broadway. Who knew superheroes could crossover to the music scene.

Both shows have been renewed on The CW as has fellow crossover shows The Legends of Tomorrow and Arrow.
